Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump's Garbage Truck Stunt Hits Back at Biden's “Gaffe” in Wisconsin

Trump’s Garbage Truck Stunt Hits Back at Biden’s “Gaffe” in Wisconsin. Trump takes an unusual approach at his rally in Wisconsin, dressing as a sanitation worker and appearing in a garbage truck. His goal: convince voters that Democrats think of Trump supporters as “garbage.” The move was in response to a verbal slip by Biden the night before. Trump claimed Biden’s words targeted his supporters, despite the intended focus being a comedian’s offensive remarks made at Madison Square Garden. Trump’s allies pounced on Biden's comments, arguing that Democratic candidate Kamala Harris isn’t genuine about uniting Americans. The point was emphasized in Green Bay, where Trump swapped his suit for an orange vest. “I have to begin by saying 250 million Americans are not garbage,” Trump declared, a figure that seemingly represents the U.S. population minus Biden's voters. He went on to accuse Harris and Biden of comparing their opponents to historical villains. “Crooked Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala think of our supporters. He called them garbage.” The gaffe risks complicating Harris’s campaign. It follows Tony Hinchcliffe’s controversial comment about Puerto Rico, calling it “a floating island of garbage,” sparking backlash and shifting endorsements. Although Biden clarified that he was criticizing the hateful rhetoric at Madison Square Garden, the damage was done. Trump's team insisted Biden’s remarks demeaned his supporters. Harris defended her stance, saying, “I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they voted for,” while campaigning alongside Republican allies who have distanced themselves from Trump. At the rally, former NFL quarterback Brett Favre made a surprise appearance, declaring, “I can assure you, we’re not garbage,” earning cheers from the audience. Senator Ron Johnson seized the opportunity to link Biden’s words to Hillary Clinton’s infamous “basket of deplorables” remark, which haunted her 2016 campaign. Trump’s political theater included arriving in a garbage truck with his name emblazoned on it. He joked about struggling to climb into the cab: “The first stair’s like, up here, and I’m saying, s—t.” Despite the theatrics, Trump refused to address the comments made by the comedian, insisting, “I don’t know who he is. He’s a comedian, what can I tell you?”
