Former US President Donald Trump was seen driving a garbage truck on Wednesday. He drove a garbage truck to Wisconsin to attend the rally. He wore a brightly colored construction jacket and answered reporters’ questions while riding in a truck. He said, “What do you think of my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.” Trump further said, “Joe Biden’s statement is truly insulting.”
This move by Donald Trump comes after President Joe Biden called Trump supporters “trash.” Biden made this comment when pro-Trump comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a controversial statement during a rally at Madison Square Garden in New York, in which he described Puerto Rico as an ‘island of garbage.’

Donald Trump’s strategy!
There is a political agenda and a game of rhetoric behind this entire incident. Trump riding a garbage truck could be a symbolic response to Biden’s statement. This is Trump’s style, in which he adopts new strategies to unite his followers and attract attention. Trump was also recently seen as a waiter, when he was seen serving burgers at a burger joint.
