This Is How You Win Elections

Former President Donald Trump is making garbage great again! 

Following President Joe Biden’s hateful comment in which he likened Trump to “garbage,” the 45th president responded in the most Trump-way possible: by riding around in a MAGA-branded garbage truck donning an orange reflective vest. 

On Wednesday, Trump rolled up to Green Bay, Wisconsin, on his way to his rally in a white garbage truck with “Trump Make America Great Again 2024” embellished on the vehicle and a giant American Flag at the front. 

“How do you like my garbage truck?" Trump asked reporters and supporters standing nearby. "This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.”

Just days before one of the most critical elections in U.S. history, people pointed out that Trump's latest stunt is "how you win elections."

Just 24 hours earlier, Biden was asked what he thought of Tony Hinchcliffe’s comedy that referred to Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage" at Trump's massive Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday, 

"Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community," Biden said on Tuesday. "Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage. The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American." 

Following the president's remarks, Vice President Kamala Harris distanced herself from the comment. On Wednesday, she told reporters that she "strongly disagrees with any criticism of people based on who they vote for."
