BUCKS COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA: During an event in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, on Thursday, October 31, Kamala Harris' running mate Tim Walz denounced former President Donald Trump's latest campaign stunt involving a garbage truck.

Walz criticized Trump following his trip to Wisconsin, where he put on a bright orange safety vest and climbed into a garbage truck, aiming to mock Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

The incident occurred after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, at a rally in Madison Square Garden on Sunday, October 27, referred to Puerto Rico as "a floating island of garbage." Subsequently, the former president seized the moment to denounce what seemed to be Biden's response, which allegedly labeled Trump supporters as "garbage."
