Donald Trump unexpectedly responded to Joe Biden's controversial "garbage" remark. At an event in Wisconsin, Trump boarded a garbage truck while wearing a bright orange fluorescent vest and addressed his supporters. The incident began when comedian Tony Hinchcliffe referred to Puerto Rico as a "floating garbage island." In reaction to these words, Biden used the phrase "The real garbage is Trump’s supporters." This statement caused a significant stir in the American public. Despite being 78 years old, Trump made statements to the press from inside the garbage truck while wearing the fluorescent vest. Speaking from a truck adorned with American flags and a "Trump 2024" banner, Trump described Biden's words as "shameful." While the Democratic Party tried to clarify Biden's remarks, Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Biden by saying, "It’s wrong to judge people based on who they voted for." Biden later stated that his words were misunderstood and that when he said "garbage," he was referring to Hinchcliffe's hate speech. After Florida Senator Marco Rubio reported the situation, Trump continued his speech at the rally in Green Bay without removing his fluorescent vest, saying, "I want to thank all of our valuable sanitation workers in America." This incident, occurring as the November 5 elections approach, further escalated political tensions. Biden's remarks were met with significant backlash, especially among Trump supporters.
