White House clarifies Biden's remarks on Trump supporters after backlash
The White House is clarifying President Biden's recent comments where he referred to Trump supporters as "garbage." This remark was made during a campaign call and sparked significant backlash. Biden's comments were linked to a joke made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at a Trump rally. The White House stated that Biden was denouncing the hateful rhetoric from the rally, not attacking Trump supporters directly. In response, Trump and his campaign criticized Biden, claiming he disrespects millions of Americans. Some Democrats, including Pennsylvania's governor, also condemned Biden's remarks, emphasizing the need for respect towards all voters.
