GREEN BAY, Wisc. (TNND) — Former President Donald Trump was seen riding around in a campaign-themed garbage truck in Green Bay on Wednesday. This comes after President Joe Biden was accused of calling Trump supporters "garbage."
The GOP presidential nominee was riding in the passenger seat of a trash truck as he spoke with reporters in the battleground state.
"How do you like my garbage truck," Trump asked the group. "This truck is an honor of Kamala and Joe Biden."
A sign on the side of the truck read, "Trump Make America Great Again! 2024"
Trump is in Wisconsin to persuade voters to cast their ballot.
The Republican took to the stage wearing an orange neon vest with the opening remark, "I have to begin by saying 250 million Americans are not garbage."
This week, Kamala has been comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history, and now, speaking on a call for her campaign last night, crooked Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala really think of our supporters. He called them garbage. No way, no way," Trump said.
He repeated similar remarks he has said throughout his campaign.
They treat you like garbage. They treat our whole country like garbage, with open borders, with all of the horrible things they've done to hurt our country, inflation that should have never happened, allowing Russia to go into Ukraine, October 7 and Israel. All of these things would have never happened if you had a different president, he told supporters.
Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre joined the 45th president of the United States on stagein the final week before Election Day.
During the rally Trump revealed why wore the orange vest on stage, despite him wanting to take it off.
Trump's campaign staff advised him to keep it on.
'I said "No way!" but they said it actually makes you look thinner,' Trump joked. 'And they got me - I said I wanna wear it on stage ... I may never wear my blue jacket again. I may go in this.'
Supported laughed at Trump and that's when his remarks went viral.
"He’s objectively the funniest person to ever work in America politics," an X user wrote.
Trump's latest move comes after President Joe Biden called Trump supporters "garbage" on Tuesday.
The White House and the current president walked back the controversial comment earlier Wednesday, but outrage had already spread.
Vice President Kamala Harris also tried to backtrack Biden's comment, saying "Listen, first of all, I think he clarified his comments, but let me be clear I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for."
Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, who endorsed Trump after stepping down from the presidential race, was also seen riding around in a trash truck on Wednesday.
In a photo post on X,Ramaswamy said, "America is ready for us to TAKE OUT THE TRASH in this election. Proud to be rolling up in a garbage truck to a Trump campaign event in North Carolina shortly. Going to clean up some actual trash on the streets first."
He was then seen helping workers take out the trash in a video post.
It read, "We’re not the garbage, we’re *taking out* the garbage."
