Kamala Harris Distances Herself from Biden's 'Garbage' Comment

Vice President Kamala Harris distanced herself from President Joe Biden's controversial remarks referring to Donald Trump's supporters as 'garbage'. Biden's comments were made on a call to Latino voters after a rally incident involving a racist joke. The situation has drawn parallels to past political controversies.

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has taken a clear stance against a recent remark made by President Joe Biden, where he labeled supporters of Donald Trump as 'garbage'. Harris emphasized her disagreement, highlighting the importance of representing all Americans regardless of their political choices.

The controversy stemmed from Biden's response to a comedian's racist joke at a Trump rally that compared Puerto Rico to 'an island of garbage'. Biden condemned the joke and Trump's rhetoric, asserting that it contradicts American values and does not reflect the nation.

In reaction, Trump seized the opportunity to criticize Biden's words, comparing them to Hillary Clinton's 'deplorables' comment in 2016. Despite Biden's subsequent explanation on social media, Trump used the moment for political gain, staging a photo-op with a garbage truck in Wisconsin.
