What could have been a win for the Democrats has become a bit of a storm in a teacup.

The Trump campaign received a huge amount of backlash after a comedian suggested that Puerto Rico is a floating island of garbage.

Joe Biden responded to the comments on a Zoom, saying that Puerto Ricans are good, decent, honourable people, and the only garbage he sees floating out there are Trump’s supporters.

US correspondent Mitch McCann told Ryan Bridge the White House says Biden was calling the racist language garbage, not Trump supporters.

However, he says that even Kamala Harris has distanced herself from the comments, saying she disagrees with any criticism of people based on who they vote for.
