JD Vance calls Kamala Harris "trash," and AOC responds.
Vance announced that the "trash" will be removed from D.C., and the "trash's" name is Kamala Harris.
During a speech on the eve of Election Day, Sen. J.D. Vance, former President Donald Trump's 2024 running mate, referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as "trash."
Vance declared that the citizens of this country are not garbage for wanting to afford groceries and a nice place to live. However, in two days, we will remove the trash in Washington D.C., and the trash's name is Kamala Harris.
In a post on X, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., expressed her doubt about the effectiveness of Republicans switching from calling Puerto Ricans "garbage" to calling a woman "garbage" as a political strategy.
At a rally at Madison Square Garden, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe was criticized for making a joke about Puerto Rico being a "floating island of garbage."
President Biden later sparked controversy with his statement, "The only garbage I see floating out there are his supporters."
Biden has suggested that he was characterizing Hinchcliffe's comments as garbage.
"Biden condemned the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spoken by Trump's supporters at his Madison Square Garden rally, calling it "garbage." He also criticized Trump's demonization of Latinos, stating that it is unconscionable. Biden emphasized that the comments at that rally do not reflect the values of the nation."
Harris stated that Biden had "elucidated his remarks," and she is against "any condemnation of individuals based on their voting preferences."
Vance has served in the Senate since 2023.
