Former US President Donald Trump was seen driving a garbage truck on Wednesday. He drove a garbage truck to Wisconsin for the rally. They wore shiny construction jackets and answered reporters' questions while riding in trucks. In honor of Kamala and Joe Biden, he said, “How did you like my garbage truck?” Trump further said, “Joe Biden’s statement is really insulting.”
This move of Donald Trump comes after President Joe Biden called Trump supporters 'trash'. Biden made the comment after pro-Trump comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a controversial statement calling Puerto Rico a 'trash island' during a rally at New York's Madison Square Garden.
Tony Hinchcliffe's vulgar and racist remarks were heavily criticized by Democrats and the prominent Latino community. Residents of Puerto Rico are an important voter group, especially in swing states like Pennsylvania.
Joe Biden calls Trump supporters 'trash'
Joe Biden on Tuesday expressed solidarity with the Puerto Rican community and praised their dignity and contributions. “I don't know these Puerto Ricans that I know or the Puerto Rico where I'm from, they are good, decent and respectful people in my home state of Delaware,” he said.
The President said that he sees only his supporters spreading garbage. However, Biden's comments came under criticism after the word trash was officially removed from the statement. Democrats and Joe Biden were criticized a lot on social media regarding this.
Donald Trump's strategy
