Former President Donald Trump addressed reporters in a garbage truck on Wednesday evening in Wisconsin after landing in the state for a rally.
The move by Trump came in response to Biden saying during a campaign call this week that 74 million Americans who voted for Trump were “garbage.”
Trump said before getting off his plane that the hundreds of millions of Americans Biden insulted were “not garbage.”

Trump then got in the truck and spoke to the media for several minutes, saying that Biden should be ashamed of himself for what he said.

“How do you like my garbage truck?” Trump asked reporters. “This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.”
He said that Vice President Kamala Harris should also be ashamed of herself “because she shouldn’t let him do it.”
“She’s the vice president, but I assume acting as the president,” Trump said. “She should never have let that happen.”
The former president later delivered remarks at his rally still wearing the sanitation uniform.

During a campaign call on Tuesday night with a Latino voter outreach group, Biden said. “Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage.”
Biden’s comments were in reference to remarks made at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City over the weekend by an insult comedian.
“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done, everything we’ve been.”
