NORWAY, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – Former President Donald Trump isn’t letting a good gaffe go to waste. After President Joe Biden called Trump supporters “garbage” earlier this week, the former president rode a garbage truck to an event in Wisconsin on Thursday night and sported a safety vest.

The truck, a Loadmaster, was made here in Michigan. Loadmaster is based in Norway, Michigan and employees 110 people. The Dickinson County community boasts a population of 2,840 residents. Andrew Brisson with Loadmaster told Michigan News Source that the company receives calls all the time from people who need garbage trucks. This time it just happened to be the former president.

“It’s neat seeing our product in the media and in the national spotlight,” he said.

Trump’s garbage truck entrance came a day after the 81-year-old Biden referred to Trump supporters as “garbage” during White House campaign video call just down the road from a Kamala Harris rally. Biden’s comments stemmed from a comic’s remarks at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally in New York on Sunday. The comedian called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.”

Biden referenced the comedian’s comment on Tuesday and said, “The only garbage I see floating out there is [Trump’s] supporters. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American,” Biden said. He tried to stress how the Democratic Party would unify the country.

Garbage, Deplorables, and Nazis.

This isn’t the first time Democrats have used demeaning statements to describe Republicans. In 2016 before losing to Trump, Hillary Clinton called Trump supporters  a “basket of deplorables.”

In Michigan, the Whitmer administration and the Democratic Party head have called Trump and his supporters “white nationalists,” and “MAGA extremists.” Nationally, the Democratic party has made it a regular habit to call Trump and his supporters “Nazis.” Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, took Gov. Tim Walz to task on Tuesday during his visit in Saginaw for using the same inflamed language.

“Rather than persuade their fellow Americans, they’ve decided that they’re going to call their fellow Americans Nazis and fascists,” Vance said. “I think it’s disgusting and a person who would close out her campaign by running and attacking her fellow Americans has no business leading the greatest nation on Earth.”

Both campaigns are spending the waning days before Election Day in Michigan. The battleground state offers 15 electoral votes.
