Former President Donald Trump arrived at his Wisconsin rally on Wednesday wearing a hi-viz vest after riding in a garbage truck to a press conference, an apparent reference to President Joe Biden’s previous controversial comments that were interpreted by many to refer to the Republican presidential candidate’s supporters.
The truck was emblazoned with Trump campaign messaging and American flags.
“How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden,” Trump said to reporters
He then took to the stage wearing a hi-viz vest.
“I have to begin by saying 250 million Americans are not garbage,” Trump said, opening his speech.

Trump appears to be capitalizing on comments made by Biden during a campaign call, in which he responded to a joke about Puerto Rico made by roast comedian Tony Hinchcliffe earlier in the week. Hinchcliffe was speaking at a campaign rally at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
The president later clarified that his comments were referring to the comedian and not Trump supporters more widely.
The Trump campaign highlighted Biden’s remarks on social media and called on the Harris campaign to denounce the remarks.
Vice President Kamala Harris sought to distance herself from Biden’s remarks on Oct. 30.
“Listen, I think, first of all, he clarified his comments, but let me be clear: I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for,“ Harris told reporters on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews. ”You heard my speech last night and continuously throughout my career. I believe that the work that I do is about representing all the people whether they support me or not.”
She said that as president, she would represent all Americans, including those who didn’t vote for her.
At a rally on Oct. 30 in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, Trump linked Biden’s comments to Harris.
