On Tuesday, President Joe Biden said comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who performed a racist set at Donald Trump’s Nazi-esque Madison Square Garden rally, was “garbage.” Republicans claimed he was calling all Trump supporters garbage and reached for the smelling salts and fainting couches—they’d never been so offended in their lives!
Nevermind that Trump himself has repeatedly called supporters of his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, “garbage.”
In this wacked-out election cycle, that gaffe was at best a 24-hour brouhaha. But because MAGA minions are nothing if not weird, they have decided that leaning in and calling each other garbage, dressing as garbage, and spending time around garbage somehow … makes them look good? It’s all so freakin’ bizarre.
