Haunting the Kamala Harris campaign is a ghost, the ghost of president present.
I’m talking, of course, about Joe Biden. Remember him? He’s still at least technically alive, wandering the landscape in search of cameras. Every time he opens his mouth, something bad happens to Kamala Harris.
The Kamala Harris campaign does not want to be associated with Biden. They’re embarrassed by him, but they still have to pretend he is important — because, otherwise, she’d be responsible for everything.
The Harris campaign doesn’t believe the president is helpful. You can see why, because every time Biden says something, it is awful.
Biden makes dumb statements all the time. On Tuesday, he suggested he wanted to take comedian Tony Hinchcliffe for a swim. (I don’t know what that meant. Was he being romantic or murderous?)
Biden stated:
That’s why today I’m proud to announce we’re delivering $3 billion in funding for 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. I’d like to take that guy for a swim out there.
Why is that important? It’s important because for the last several days, since the Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday, the Democrats have been suggesting that Tony Hinchcliffe — a comedian unrelated to the Trump campaign who made a bad joke about Puerto Rico being a floating island of garbage — was a stand-in for the entire Trump campaign. Yet Hinchcliffe is a comedian who is not, in fact, running for president and has nothing to do with the Trump campaign in any capacity, formal or informal. He was just there, he spoke, and that was it.

If they wanted to make a three-day controversy about how Puerto Rico is an “island of garbage” (because a comedian said so) and attribute that to Trump, who denounced it, they should have been ready for Biden to say something nasty.
And Biden, the current sitting president of the United States — who called his political opponents enemies of the Republic in a speech in front of a blood-red Independence Hall, suggesting that ultra-super MAGA Republicans were effectively traitors to the country and who labeled Donald Trump a Nazi — did just that.
In a Zoom interview Biden was conducting from his basement, he decided to call half of Americans “garbage.” First, looking at what he said is important, and next, explaining how the White House and media are trying to spin this one is equally important. The cover-up is as bad as the crime.
What Biden said was truly awful. It was worse than Hillary Clinton’s “deplorables,” worse than Obama’s “bitter clingers.” Democrats have labeled their political opponents the trash heap of humanity for years. This was the apotheosis of that — a direct outgrowth of believing that Trump is a Hitler figure and all of his followers are brownshirts. If those statements continue to be made over and over — such as repeating that Trump is a Nazi and he holds Nazi rallies — saying his followers are garbage is not a leap, which is what Biden said.
Biden said, “And just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a ‘floating island of garbage.’ … The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done, everything we’ve been.”
The cover-up for Biden has been astounding. This is not a Rorschach test. This is not a blob on a piece of paper. You can hear clearly what he’s saying. There is no doubt about what he’s saying because it’s on tape.
“The only garbage I see out there is his supporters.” Inflection: down. End of sentence. It’s clear he was saying that you, I, and all the people who support Donald Trump are garbage. Everyone who does not support Kamala Harris is garbage.
There is no other way to read it or hear it. But don’t worry, the media were going to do their work. The media pretended — all joking aside — that there was an apostrophe in that sentence.
Now, I know you’re thinking, “Wait, where’s the apostrophe? I don’t understand.”
Here is how the media have been attempting to characterize this, and it is astonishing. They are trying to claim that what he actually said was, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter’s.” “Supporter’s.” Singular with an apostrophe “s”. They are claiming Biden was only talking about Tony Hinchcliffe: “The only garbage out there is Tony Hinchcliffe garbage.”
Politico’s Jonathan LeMire attempted to rewrite what Biden said by adding an apostrophe.

So they attempted to use phantom apostrophes to save Joe Biden from himself. They’re simply rewriting Biden in real time. And Biden put out a statement later in which he claimed he was talking about Hinchcliffe.
Who else doesn’t believe him? Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania, who was overlooked as Kamala Harris’s vice presidential pick. He said, “I would never insult the good people of Pennsylvania or any Americans, even if they chose to support a candidate that I didn’t support.”
But Kamala Harris won’t denounce Joe Biden because she’s afraid of him and the base of the Democratic Party who actually do believe that Trump supporters are garbage.
This is a feature of the Democratic Party, not the bug. This is part and parcel of the entire Democratic agenda: People who support Donald Trump, according to Joe Biden and most of the rest of the Democratic Party, are garbage.
It’s perfectly obvious what Biden was saying. But the media and Democrats want to make you believe he didn’t say it.
Absolute trash.
And they think we are morons.
