Tycoon and Republican White House candidate Donald trumparrived at garbage truck to the rally and wear orange vest after President Joe Biden criticized his followers.

“Do you like my garbage truck? “This is in honor of Kamala (Harris) and Joe Biden,” he said in Wisconsin from the passenger seat of a truck emblazoned with his campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.”

The controversy erupted Tuesday when Biden defended Puerto Rico after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe described it as “floating island of garbage” during Trump’s big rally over the weekend at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

“Let me tell you something. (…) The only trash I see around are his followers,” said Biden, whose words both the White House and the president himself later tried to clarify that they were aimed at the comedian and not at Trump supporters, but drew criticism . from the Republican side.

Trump’s first words at the Green Bay rally were also a direct response to that comment: “250 million people are not trash,” he said on stage.

Despite Biden’s clarification and Harris distancing herself from the comment, the New York mogul reiterated that the president “finally said what he and Kamala really think” about their supporters.

“You can’t be president if you hate Americans, which I think they do. And Kamala Harris has no right to be president at all.

“He doesn’t have the intelligence, energy or special qualities of true leaders.”

The billionaire said he agreed to wear the vest because he was told it made him look slimmer: “I may never wear a jacket again,” he joked, stressing that they were “having a little fun discussing a very serious topic.”
