So am I garbage with an apostrophe?
By Silvio Canto, Jr.

Well, how did this happen? How does a sitting president refer to half of the country as garbage? Was it a slip of the tongue or was he trying to sabotage VP Harris's closing speech? Your guess is as good as mine, but the White House is in full cleanup mode. Let's check the story:

    The White House and its media allies ran a coverup for President Biden after he maligned former President Donald Trump’s supporters as “garbage” -- going so far as to edit an official transcript of his remarks, to the outrage of conservatives and other critics who called out “flat out lying” by Democrats and their allies.

    Democrats went into damage-control mode Tuesday night due to the president’s trash talk, claiming that Biden hadn’t intended to demonize his party’s political opponents just seven days before voters head to the polls.

    “The President referred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ‘garbage,’” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement.

    The White House in a transcript of the speech also added an apostrophe to the 81-year-old’s poorly timed criticism less than five days before the 2024 election.

When in doubt use an apostrophe? I guess that the cleanup crew at the White House thinks that we are that stupid. Yes, he didn't call the Trump supporters "garbage" because they added an apostrophe in the transcript. Why didn't I think of that?

Wrecking Ball Joe meant every word.  We are garbage in his eyes, and yes, I am certain he was also trying to sabotage her campaign.  Since she was selected, he has popped up to deliver a zinger here and there that sure does appear to sting his cohort, his hand picked sidekick.  Remember, he wanted a black woman, his words, and in addition to that criteria, the unspoken requirement was that she had to be dumber than him.

Kamela Harris is indeed dumber than a senile Biden, no mistaking that FACT!

In the sentence, "Supporter's" is grammatically possible. But in the context of that part of Biden's speech, Biden was clearly calling 10s of millions of American voters "Garbage". Just like Kackle-a and other Dems have been calling 10s of millions of American voters "Nazis" and "Fascists". Just like HilLIARy called 10s of millions of American voters "Deplorables".
