President Biden says he desires to take pro-Trump comic Tony Hinchliffe ‘for a swim’ following the comedian’s controversial remarks at Sunday’s Trump marketing campaign rally at Madison Sq. Backyard. 

Biden made the off-the-cuff remark at Baltimore’s harbor in Maryland on Tuesday whereas selling the results of huge spending payments below his administration.

“I’m proud to announce more than $3 billion in funding from my Inflation Reduction Act to help clean up and modernize ports in 27 different states and territories from Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and beyond — including, yes, Puerto Rico,” Biden stated to the applauding crowd earlier than making the throwaway remark.

“I’d like to take that guy for a swim out there, anyway,” Biden added, referring to Hinchliffe, because the viewers chuckled. 

“Steny’s looking at me, ‘Don’t get going Joe, don’t get going Joe, slow up,’” Biden stated, referring to Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md, earlier than getting again to his speech. 

Biden didn’t elaborate about what he would possibly do on the swim. After a wry smile and transient pause, Biden received again on script and continued his speech. 

Biden’s taunt at Hinchliffe mirrored the forty sixth president’s jabs at former President Trump in 2016 when Biden stated, “I wish we were in high school — I could take him behind the gym.”

Hinchiffe made jokes at Sunday’s large rally mocking completely different ethnic teams, with one joke referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean.” 

The controversy has swirled for days with Democrats pouncing on the joke concentrating on Puerto Rico voters to get out and vote for Vice President Harris. The Trump marketing campaign shortly distanced itself from the joke after it was made.

Biden’s remarks about Hinchliffe got here hours earlier than he appeared to disparage Trump supporters throughout a digital Harris marketing campaign name with Voto Latino, a non-profit group which inspires younger Hispanic and Latino voters to register to vote and develop into extra politically concerned.

“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden stated. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable and it is un-American.”

The remark shortly went viral and sparked swift condemnation from critics. 

“This is disgusting,” Republican vice-presidential nominee JD Vance reacted. “Kamala Harris and her boss Joe Biden are attacking half of the country. There’s no excuse for this. I hope [Americans] reject it.”

The White Home tried to wash up the remark by sending out a transcript including an apostrophe to point Biden was solely talking about one supporter, not all: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter’s — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”

Biden tried to make clear his feedback on social media as solely directed at one supporter.

“Earlier today I referred to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump’s supporter at his Madison Square Garden rally as garbage—which is the only word I can think of to describe it,” Biden wrote on X. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That’s all I meant to say. The comments at that rally don’t reflect who we are as a nation.”

Trump himself reacted to the “terrible” remark whereas talking at a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania. 

“Remember Hillary? She said ‘deplorable’ and then said ‘irredeemable,’ right? But she said ‘deplorable.’ That didn’t work out. ‘Garbage’ I think is worse,” Trump stated to his supporters. “But he doesn’t know — you have to please forgive him. Please forgive him. For he not knoweth what he said.”  

“And I’m convinced he likes me more than he likes Kamala,” Trump quipped.
