The Facts
Republican candidate former Pres. Donald Trump spoke from a garbage truck and wore an orange safety vest in Green Bay, Wis., on Wednesday in reference to comments Pres. Joe Biden made during a video call on Tuesday night.
Biden earlier said that "the only garbage [he] see[s] floating out there is his supporter's," forcing the White House to claim that he referred only to Tony Hinchcliffe, a comedian who described Puerto Rico as an "island of garbage" at a Trump rally, rather than supporters of the Republican candidate.
The Spin
Republican narrative
Trump's garbage truck stunt was the perfect troll in response to Biden and his party's continued snobbery towards hardworking Americans who are fed up with the woke status quo. While the White House may try and pretend Pres. Biden did not mean what he said, the Democratic Party's unpatriotic and divisive rhetoric has been heard loud and clear by the American people.
Democratic narrative
In peak hypocrisy, Republicans who adamantly defended Hinchliffe's distasteful Puerto Rico comments are the first to jump on and twist Pres. Biden's words. While the President's remarks may well have been clumsy, they are nothing compared to the dangerous rhetoric Trump and his MAGA movement continue to spew against their fellow Americans when it suits them to do so.
