Donald Trump trolled President Joe Biden and Kamala Harris by riding a MAGA garbage truck to his rally in Wisconsin on Wednesday night in response to President Joe Biden’s gaffe.
‘How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden,’ he told reporters in Green Bay with just six days until what could be one of the closest elections in history.
‘For Joe Biden to make that statement — it’s really a disgrace,’ he added.
The former president pulled off the stunt less than 24 hours after Biden referred to his supporters as ‘garbage’.
Wisconsin is one of the seven battleground that could ultimately decide the election and polls show the state is essentially a coin-flip.
‘The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,’ Biden was initially quoted as saying.
The White House later clarified his words with an apostrophe in the transcript, and claimed the president was only talking about comedian Tony Hinchcliffe calling Puerto Rico a ‘floating island of garbage’.
The side of the truck was emblazoned with a Trump sign and had an American flag on the window.
As the 78-year-old leaned out the side, wearing an orange reflective vest, he took questions from the press.
One asked if he owes Puerto Rico an apology over comedian Tony Hinchcliffe calling it a ‘floating island of garbage’ during his Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday.
‘I love Puerto Rico. And Puerto Rico loves me. I don’t know anything about a comedian’, Trump said.
‘Nobody has done more for Puerto Rico than me. Nobody gets along better with Puerto Rico. They love me and I love them.’
The Republican nominee was in Wisconsin for a rally with NFL legend Brett Favre.
The retired Green Bay Packer quarterback told the crowd: ‘Just like the Packers organization, Donald Trump and his organization is a winner and the United States of America won with his leadership
‘I can assure you we’re not garbage. How dare you say that. Looking out I see police officers, teachers ,nurses grandparents students I see everyday Americans that make this country great.’
Trump then took the rally stage still wearing the orange vest as the crowd roared.
‘I have to begin by saying, 250 million Americans are not garbage,’ he opened by saying.
