'Daily Show' Trashes Trump's Halloween 'Costume' With Wickedly 'Perfect' Metaphor
HuffPost
Ronny Chieng made waste of the former president's garbage truck stunt.
“Daily Show” correspondent Ronny Chieng joked that Donald Trump got into the Halloween spirit on Thursday after the GOP nominee put on a reflective vest and hopped into a garbage truck for a campaign stunt earlier this week.
“It’s not just kids dressing up in costumes, it’s grown men,” quipped Chieng before playing clips from Trump’s photo-op in Wisconsin.
He continued, “OK so you dressed up as a garbage man because you say Biden called your supporters ‘garbage’ and you’re saying they’re not garbage but you’re taking out the garbage which is someone else but you won’t tell us who it is and also no one should call anyone garbage but you just did because you’re the garbage man. So, in other words, the perfect metaphor.”
Trump’s garbage photo-op arrived after a comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” at the GOP nominee’s Madison Square Garden campaign rally on Sunday.
President Joe Biden, in response, said, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters, his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”
