Is This the Funniest Closing Election Week Ever?
Trump’s theatrical response to Biden’s garbage gaffe is simply hilarious.
In the closing days of this election, which campaign is having more fun, exuding more joy?
It’s certainly not Kamala Harris’s JOY!™ campaign. Donald Trump, the guy who got shot in July and avoided a second attempt on his life in September, is having the time of his life.
Joe Biden said, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”
The next day, Trump responded by showing up to a Green Bay rally and donning an orange reflective vest before climbing into a garbage truck with his campaign sign plastered across the side. CNN had to break away from normal news programming to cover the hilarity. He conducted a press conference from the passenger’s seat (memo to Joe: that’s singular possessive), where he said the show was “in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.” He then gave his entire stump speech while still wearing the vest.
“I have to begin by saying 250 million Americans are not garbage!” he said to a roaring crowd. “You can’t lead America if you don’t love Americans! You can’t be president if you hate the American people, which I believe they do.”
The Orange-Vested Man is good at this.

President Trump tells the story of how the garbage truck and the orange vest came to be.

Just like Donald’s McDonald’s run last week, the garbage truck was absolutely brilliant political theater. Yes, just like showing up to McDonald’s to “work” a shift, waving to vetted supporters out the drive-thru window, climbing into a garbage truck and then delivering a campaign speech with an orange vest was staged.
Note to the Leftmedia “fact-checkers”: We all know Trump didn’t actually work at the frier or pick up trash, but thanks for looking into it.
What was Joe Biden doing last night? Biting babies at a Halloween party.
Kamala Harris was in Raleigh, North Carolina, for a rally. At least she didn’t do anything cringeworthy like that moment when the crowd was chanting her name and she stopped them to say they should all chant their own names. Boy, is she bad at this.
“Joy” was always an ill-fitting garment for Democrats, who had ousted their stubborn-old-man incumbent when he didn’t stick to the script and bow out gracefully. The deplorable old man was bitterly clinging to power, and he’s now dumping garbage all over Kamala’s joyful and unifying fearmongering anti-Nazi campaign, his argument about grammar and apostrophes notwithstanding.
Trump and Republicans responded with mockery and humor, not with outrage as the Leftmedia framed it. NPR went back to the well for its initial headline: “Republicans pounce on Biden’s ‘garbage’ remarks.” Now the headline reads, “Harris urged unity in her closing argument. Biden’s ‘garbage’ line undercut that.”
Harris had already undercut her own phony “unity” message with the whole Nazi/fascist thing last week. Just like Biden spent almost four years undercutting his Inaugural promises of “unity” with the same Nazi/fascist nonsense.
Democrats are angry. They hate Donald Trump — and, as we knew all along, his “garbage” supporters.
As Trump put it last night, “For the past nine years, Kamala and her party have called us racists, bigots, fascists, deplorables, irredeemables, Nazis, and they called me Hitler. They’ve bullied you, they’ve demonized us, they’ve censored us, they’ve deplatformed us, and they weaponized the power of our own government against all of us.”
Biden would say TRUMP needs to tone down the rhetoric. https://t.co/yzgZ4cR4Gp

The bottom line is that one side is motivated by envy, anger, and hatred. The other side is motivated by love of country and just plain loves to laugh.
