Making the most of Biden's "garbage" remark, Trump arrives at his Green Bay rally wearing garbage worker's gear.

He also rode in a garbage truck from the plane to the arena:

I trust that Democrats across the country will join with Mr. Trump in support of those who were prevented from voting.; 10/30/24, 6:37 PM

YoungHegelian said...: Whether Trump wins or loses, there's no doubt he's having one hell of a time on the campaign trail. The Democrats want to quickly and quietly move on past the "garbage gaff", but, nope, Trump rubs their noses in it with another incredible visual when he shows up in the garbage trucks and vest.; 10/30/24, 6:41 PM
Dixcus said...: Boy, Joe Biden really despises Americans, don't he? I guess if you've been deposed as President, the victim of a coup run out of Nancy Pelosi's office with Barack Obama as the funder, and nobody cared ... well, you'd probably think Americans are garbage too.

The thing is, we like being called Deplorables. I have a hat with that word on it to remind everybody just what I am. I'm a Deplorable and Hillary Clinton is a washed up old drunk and won't ever be President.

This is what they don't get. The more they hate us, the more powerful we grow.

Yes, release YOUR ANGER, Democrats.

If you strike us down ... well, I don't want to spoil the ending for you.; 10/30/24, 6:42 PM

Dixcus said...: The Arizona Supreme Court just paved the way for Democrats to steal the election. They ruled that UNPOSTMARKED ballots never sent through the mail can be counted up to 3 days AFTER the election, so that the Democrats know precisely how many FAKE BALLOTS they need to produce in order to win Arizona.

Also, ABC has already called Pennsylvania for Harris. The put up their fake election numbers ... OOPS ... a week early.

Trump knows the elections are fake, so why not have a little fun.; 10/30/24, 6:46 PM

They are the type of people that can complain about a comedian calling an Island floating garbage for 2 days non stop and then immediately pretend they don't think it is a big deal.

Inga said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 10/30/24, 7:10 PM
pious agnostic said...: I think two things about this story.

1) They needed to test the system, and their test was accidentally aired.
2) Their test message was a bit of self-soothing in the face of a lot of shaky knees.

If their message had shown Trump the winner, the internal revolt would have been counterproductive.; 10/30/24, 7:11 PM
Jim at said...: I know you folks want to think it was a negative for the Harris campaign, nope, not so.

You really suck at this politics stuff. I mean, you don't have a fucking clue.
Of course is was a negative for her campaign. Witness the press trying to cover it up, take it out of context or completely ignore it.

Sticking your head up your ass and screaming nah, nah, nah is a helluva way to go through life.; 10/30/24, 7:11 PM

Jim at said...: Joe Biden has been sidelined by Kamala Harris in the final days of her campaign, with his description of Donald Trump supporters as "garbage" underscoring her campaign's fears that the outgoing president is an electoral liability.

US media reported earlier this week that Harris's campaign was distancing itself from the incumbent, and that it had politely rejected his suggestions to make more joint appearances on the stump.

But, but I was told his comments were no big deal. Obviously some people know more than the Harris campaign. Too bad they're wasting their vast intellect on a law prof's website.; 10/30/24, 7:56 PM

Well, yeah... we know. We know, Inga, that you despise Americans and think they are garbage Nazi racists who should be rounded up and sent to the camps.

That's kind of the point of Trump: to stand up to you vile cretins who want to kill us. Trump's no saint, but sometimes you need a soldier, warts and all, when it comes time to fight.

Dr Weevil said...: Madison Square Garden only seats 20,000, so if Trump had only "twenty of so thousand people" at his rally it's because it was full. Estimates that another 75,000 who couldn't get in watched it live on television in the many bars in the area are no doubt exaggerated, but there were certainly many who did that. Is Sprezzatura stupid, dishonest, or a bit of each, when he makes comparisons like this one?

I have also seen pictures of the Kamala rally and people commenting that it looked more like 20,000 than 55,000 or 75,000. And didn't Trump have 250,000 at his rally on January 6th, 2021, most of whom never went near the Capitol? That would be the proper comparison.; 10/30/24, 8:55 PM

If I'd been treated as Biden was treated, I probably would think that the people who did that to me were garbage people, but that was done by Pelosi and a few other D.C. insiders - it had nothing to do with the voting public. Calling us garbage is still a nasty, stupid, typically Bidenoid thing to do.; 10/30/24, 8:59 PM

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...: Since Biden famously said “supporters” the total slandered by his garbage comment conceivably includes even non-voters who support Trump. Ironically those are the exact people that TPUSA are targeting with intensive GOTV efforts in swing states. They surveyed earlier and found that about a third of attendees at Trump rallies were not registered and almost half of avid hunters so those “supporters” are even more motivated to vote now.
