This protest was once according to President Joe Biden’s remarks on the republican supporters, within which he stated, “A couple of the most effective garbage I see floating out there's his (Trump’s) supporters. His demonisation of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American”. This comment was once triggered by a comic story from comedian Tony Hinchcliffe on the Madison Square Garden rally, where Hinchcliffe referred to Puerto Rico as “literally a floating island of garbage.” The Caribbean island is a U.S. territory with a Spanish-speaking Latino population.
Trump, also arrived on the rally in a trash collector’s vest after riding on a garbage truck, On the opposite hand, in an interview with the New York Post, Ramaswamy acknowledged that he and Trump arrived on deepest planes but insisted, “I don’t care whether you’re, you know, the owner of a deepest jet or the operator or driver of a dump truck.
