View show) to Biden’s controversial comments about Trump supporters who Reuters said during a fundraising call on Tuesday: “The only garbage I see out there is his demonization of Latinos by his supporters – his – his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable and un-American,” Biden said, according to the outlet, in response to the comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s racist joke about Puerto Rico at a Trump rally at Madison Square Garden in New York.

“Biden needs to stay away from the media until Election Day. His “trash” comments are political gold for the right and remind voters that they are called “disgusting,” Griffin, who worked on Trump’s communications team before resigning and running against him in 2020, reported in Wednesday morning, further calling on the Vice President Kamala Harris to disassociate herself from Biden’s remarks as she prepares to fight back against Trump on November 5.

“This comment is the opposite of what Kamala Harris is trying to achieve – uniting Americans. The campaign (should) definitely distance itself. This is not the time to worry (about) anyone’s feelings,” Griffin continued. “And let’s be clear: Trump has said the worst things about Democrats almost every day for a decade. fake, they (really) don’t want me in their ranks.”

“Earlier today, I called the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by a Trump supporter at his rally at Madison Square Garden trash—that’s the only word I can think of to describe it,” the 82-year-old said. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That’s all I wanted to say. The comments at this rally do not reflect who we are as a nation.”

On Wednesday, View also played a clip of Harris addressing Biden’s subsequent comments.

“First of all, he clarified his comments, but let me be clear: I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for,” Harris said in the video. “I believe my job is to represent the interests of all people, whether they support me or not.”

On air Whoopi Goldberg took a swipe at Republicans trying to weaponize Biden’s comments against him and the Harris campaign, while Griffin detailed her feelings. “When they hear the President of the United States, who was Kamala Harris’ running mate, call them trash, they say, ‘See, they’re not with us,'” Griffin assessed. “I understand his return, but it will be shocking to the tens of millions of people who believe in it.”

Goldberg later noted that comments from Trump and his supporters have disparaged a wide range of people over the years, including Harris herself.

“When you say I’m undecided and don’t know if I trust them and now they’re saying this about us… Kamala’s pimps?” Goldberg asked, referencing recent rhetoric comparing Harris to being controlled by men , while Sunny Hostin noted that Trump recently compared America to a trash can on immigration at a recent campaign event.
