Former President Donald Trump’s arrival in Wisconsin took an unexpected twist—and, frankly, one that couldn’t be more fitting. After President Biden labeled Trump’s supporters “garbage” during a campaign call, Trump decided to respond in pure Trump style: rolling up to meet reporters in an actual garbage truck.

It was the ultimate clap-back, delivered right from a “Make America Great Again” trash truck, where Trump addressed the media in a sanitation uniform and made it clear he was there to set the record straight. “How do you like my garbage truck?” he asked with his signature grin. “This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.”
Trump didn’t mince words. He blasted Biden, saying he “should be ashamed of himself” for calling millions of Americans “garbage.” And in typical Trump fashion, he went on to jab at Vice President Kamala Harris, suggesting she should’ve stepped in if she’s truly the one running the show, given how often she’s in the spotlight when it’s supposed to be Biden’s moment. Trump’s quip about her “acting as the president” struck a nerve, echoing what many Americans have questioned about Harris’s outsized role in this administration.

But this wasn’t just a media stunt; it was vintage Trump. The visuals of him speaking to his supporters from a garbage truck in response to Biden’s insult are the kind of stagecraft that only Trump could pull off. This wasn’t about agreeing to disagree or politely defending his supporters. This was Trump getting down into the mud—showing, once again, that he’s more than willing to play hardball.
Biden’s comment came during a Voto Latino event, where he referenced a comedian’s “garbage” joke about Puerto Rico at a Trump rally and added that the only “garbage” he saw were Trump’s supporters. The jab felt particularly harsh, especially given that Biden’s own administration has promised to “unify” the country and “heal the soul of America.”
Insulting half the country doesn’t exactly scream unity, and Trump didn’t miss a beat calling out the hypocrisy. Biden’s remarks may have intended to demonize Trump’s base, but for many, they only served to galvanize it.
Trump went on to rally the crowd in Wisconsin, where he wore his sanitation gear with pride, sending a message: Biden’s insults aren’t going to sway his supporters. In fact, the backlash seems to be fueling them even more. By literally jumping into a garbage truck, Trump showed that he’s not backing down—and neither are his supporters.
This is a hilarious must-watch!
This clip of Trump explaining the dump truck, is funnier than 99% of Netflix comedy specials. 😂
And this is the guy they said was Hitler?
As for the Dems, they are in trouble. Trump is relaxed, smooth, and having fun. They can’t compete with this.

The 2024 election isn’t just a political battle; it’s shaping up to be a showdown of style, message, and a fight over which vision for America will ultimately prevail. And if Trump has anything to say about it, the Biden-Harris insults won’t be what defines this race.
