This is deplorable. The Harris people are bitterly clinging to their Nazi and garbage lines of attack, insisting that nobody cares that President Joe Biden called half the country “garbage.”
The Harris campaign is scrambling to contain the damage, but the problem is that Joe Biden just said the not-so-quiet part out loud. Democrats have been calling Republicans Nazis so often that the accusation has lost its sting. It is almost background noise, as you can see in the polls. Democrats spent a week trying to drive home the point using General Mattis’ comments, and Trump’s numbers are up. Not because people think he is a Nazi, but because the accusation has lost its oomph.
The residual, though, is that Republicans got the message loud and clear: Democrats and the elite HATE HATE HATE us, and now the “garbage” comment resonates because it is a new way of saying an old thing, and reminds swing voters about just who really is divisive.
Walz denies that Biden’s ‘garbage’ comments undermine Harris’ unity message: When confronted by CBS News over President Biden’s “garbage” comments, Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., insisted they don’t undermine the Harris camp’s message of “unity.” https://t.co/QCjw9HMBN2 #BreakingNews pic.twitter.com/ziKSWVfrI4— ZBreakingNewz (@ZBreakingNewz) October 30, 2024
As expected, Josh Shapiro gave a straightforward and much better answer than Walz. But he is a Jew, and hence left off the ticket.

If this were a singular example, the “grammar” argument might fly; the problem is that we had “bitter clingers”, “deplorables”, “fascists” and grandma killers, and now “garbage.”
It doesn’t fit with the whole BS “unity” thing.
