Three rubbish vans will play a role in Trump’s inauguration on Monday, in a throwback to an Oct. 30 information convention Trump held from the passenger seat of a rubbish truck in Inexperienced Bay, Wisc.
With a few of the festivities set to maneuver inside amid freezing temperatures, it’s unclear if the Loadmaster initially scheduled for the parade will nonetheless make an look. The corporate informed WILX Trump’s inaugural group initially requested for only one truck, only to bump up the request to 3.
Trump’s October rubbish truck stunt was a followup to feedback made by comic Tony Hinchcliffe at a separate Trump rally, by which he referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of rubbish.” When President Joe Biden retorted that “the one rubbish I see floating out there may be his supporters,” Trump jumped on the chance to recast it as a slight towards Trump supporters — not Puerto Ricans.
