Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley suggested there has “always been a streak” within the Democratic Party in denigrating voters, with President Joe Biden’s recent “garbage” comment being the latest one.

Biden’s statement was made during a live stream on Tuesday evening, during which he contended “the only garbage” he could see are supporters of former President Donald Trump. While many Republicans have condemned the president’s remark, Whatley suggested the remark is par for the course for some Democrats, citing how 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton once deemed Trump supporters a “basket of deplorables” or how Harris running mate Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) compared Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally to a 1939 Nazi rally held in the same area.
