Joe Biden has been taking a lot of heat for his response to the blatant racism at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden debacle. The claim is that he called Trump's supporters (plural) "garbage."

But that isn't what he actually said.

Here's a piece of the transcript. He uses the possessive singular and follows it up with "his demonization of Latinos" (emphasis mine). Seeing them together, it is 100% clear: Both of these two uses confirm that he was directing his ire at that one particular supporter who spewing racism on the stage--and as I see it, that so-called comedian deserves the insult. Here is the quote, in context: "they're good, decent, honorable people. The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter's -- his -- his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it's un-American."

Meanwhile, Trump, in his arrogance, not only didn't apologize, not only called this horrorshow a "lovefest" and said it was "an honor to be involved," but then had the hubris to do one campaign event from the cab of a garbage truck, telling reporters “How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden” and say at another, “We know it's what they believe, because look how they’ve treated you. They’ve treated you like garbage.”

The only way I can interpret this is he's is totally OK with calling Puerto Ricans "garbage."

I have to wonder how any decent, moral person can support this man who goes against those values. He's not only racist, he's homophobic, he otherizes lots of groups from people with disabilities to both Muslims and Jews to military veterans. He has been convicted of 34 felonies so far, is a self-acknowledged sexual predator, has stiffed hundreds of small businesses that did work for him, was found in court to have not only committed "the equivalent of rape" but to have defamed one of the at least 69(!) women who have accused him of rape or sexual misconduct--and increasingly, he is advocating fascism. Increasingly, too, he is showing signs of rapid cognitive decline. He is also the only US President, as far as I know, to use the office he was elected to for massive business and personal financial gain. He has repeatedly betrayed the loyalty of those who stood by him, from his Attorney General, William Barr, to his Vice President, Mike Pence. He has been called unfit by dozens of people who worked for him.

He is not fit to be President. He is not fit to be trusted with any responsibility for others. Please share widely with anyone in your circle who is considering voting for this cowardly, criminal, immature bully.
