Earlier this week, Joe Biden finally had his “deplorables” moment. While speaking to the Hispanic activist group Voto Latino on Tuesday, Joe slammed Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally for a comedian’s joke calling Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.”
“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Joe said in response.
Many have since said that this was reminiscent of Hillary Clinton infamously calling Trump supporters “deplorables” back in 2016. It’s widely believed that this ultimately played a role in Clinton losing the election.
Biden has since desperately tried to backtrack. The White House issued a statement saying that he was referring to the “hateful rhetoric coming out of the Madison Square Garden rally,” not actual supporters of Trump.
The damage, however, has already been done. Indeed, it’s clear to many voters that Biden said the quiet part out loud. “Garbage” is exactly what members of the Democrat elite believe Trump supporters to be.
Donald Trump Jr. has since responded to this entire fiasco by trolling Biden in an epic way with his Halloween costume. In a time when Biden and his fellow Democrats want voters to forget about his “garbage” comments as much as possible, this is sure to hit them right where it hurts!
From Newsweek:
As both his father, former president Donald Trump, and Kamala Harris grappled with who had branded who as “garbage” in the aftermath of the Republican Madison Square Garden rally, Trump Jr posted a family photo of him in a black garbage bag, with plastic bottles, see-through plastic bags and scrunched-up brown paper duct taped to his body. The look was further accessorized with a Make America Great Again red cap.He wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “Happy Halloween. Embrace their hate and own it. Then VOTE! I’m fine being garbage like the rest of you deplorable and irredeemables @patriots!!! Love you all hope you have a blast tonight!!!”
Check out the costume for yourself in the photos below.

The mainstream media has spent years trying to portray the entire Trump family as being humorless monsters. This serves as a reminder of just how hilarious they really can be at times.
Others Dress Up As Garbage As Well
Trump Jr. was far from the only public figure to troll Biden with his costume. Conservative media personality Megyn Kelly got in on the action as well, wearing a black garbage bag that she tied in a way that created a dress. She then completed her costume with a red MAGA hat.
“Happy Halloween Garbage People!” she wrote.

Victor Wolder (@SnakeMannn), a photojournalist known for supporting Trump, also dressed up as garbage on Halloween. He posted an image of himself in a black garbage bag. Wolder additionally wore gloves that featured the American flag and a high-vis vest.
“I was garbage too!” he wrote.

Biden can try to distance himself from his “garbage”comments all that he wants to, but we all know that he meant exactly what he said.
Clinton describing millions of Trump supporters as “deplorables” back in 2016 only inspired more people to vote for Trump. Here’s hoping that the same thing happens with Biden’s “garbage”remarks, and that it’s enough to hand Trump the victory come Election Day!
Key Takeaways:
- Biden seemingly refers to millions of Trump supporters as “garbage.”
- Trump Jr. trolls Biden by dressing up as garbage for Halloween.
- Megyn Kelly and others wear similar garbage costumes.
