They really are taking the biscuit. By ‘they’, I mean the Democratic party and the liberal media.
Recently a comedian at a Trump rally made a “joke” which included alluding to Puerto Rican’s as “garbage”. Not very funny. Biden responded by calling Trump’s supporters “garbage”. Rather stupid.
The Democratic party and liberal press are now trying to explain that: “the only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters” actually means “the only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter’s”. Instead of ‘him’ referring to his, Trump’s, supporters we are supposed to believe that Biden meant “his supporter’s” in which case the “supporter” was the comedian who made the original “joke” and Biden is referring to the garbage which came out of his mouth. This is obviously not the case. Grammatically it works, but it is uncomfortable and unnatural English. It isn’t just the lexis. The clip can be seen on the Internet and it is clear what Biden meant. What I note is that the Democratic party officials simply engage in planned, open lying. They cannot have any sense at all of the difference between telling the truth and lying and why it might matter.
