Former President Donald Trump once again broke the internet with epic trolling after showing up in a garbage truck in response to President Joe Biden calling his supporters “garbage.”
Earlier this week, Biden prompted widespread outrage — even among so-called “moderate” Democrats — after calling Trump supporters “garbage” during a Tuesday night Zoom call.
Biden’s comments came in response to a joke from Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, where “Kill Tony” comedian Tony Hinchcliffe joked about Puerto Rico’s well-known garbage problem with overflowing landfills.
Hinchcliffe said: “There’s a lot going on. Like, I don’t know if you know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

Biden, like many other Democrats, was outraged over the simple joke told by a well-known “roast comedian.”
During the Zoom call, Biden responded to the joke with an even more offensive statement, declaring: “The only garbage I see floating out there are his [Trump’s] supporters. His demonization of people is unconscionable and it’s un-American.”
Biden’s comments prompted serious backlash for himself and the Harris campaign, with critics slamming him for daring to refer to half the country as “garbage” — as many compared to twice-failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” comment, only worse. The backlash of Biden’s comments was so bad that the White House reportedly altered the transcript of Biden’s speech in a desperate effort to protect him, though the effort may cause more trouble — as it could be a violation of the Presidential Records Act.
Trump responded to Biden’s outrageous comments with an epic troll — telling reporters from the passenger seat of the truck: “How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.”

Trump followed up this epic moment by doing his Wisconsin rally while still wearing a signature truck driver orange vest.
Trump describing how his team finally got him to agree to wear the vest on stage is hilarious.
"I said, NO WAY!.. They said, "Okay, sir… but if you did, it actually makes you look thinner."
"THEY GOT ME. I said I want to wear it on stage." 😂 pic.twitter.com/N8PXycugpg

Trump’s hilarious troll moments came after a video he released from Air Force One responding to Biden’s shocking remarks, where he was also wearing the vest. He declared during the video: “250 million people are not garbage.”
