In what White House officials are calling a slip of the tongue, President Biden called Trump supporters “garbage.”

From The Epoch Times. President Joe Biden is facing criticism for calling supporters of former President Trump ā€œgarbageā€ during a virtual speech on Oct. 29.

Bidenā€™s comments were made during a Zoom call with Voto Latino, a nonprofit aimed at registering Latinos to vote, in which Biden referenced stand-up comedian Tony Hinchcliffeā€™s remarks about Puerto Rico during Trumpā€™s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City earlier this week.

ā€œJust the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage,ā€ Biden said.

The president then added: ā€œThe only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and itā€™s un-American.ā€ …

White House spokesman Andrew BatesĀ posted the transcript of the remarks stating that the president said, ā€œThe only garbage I see floating out there is his supporterā€™s.ā€ This, Bates said, ā€œreferred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ā€˜garbage.ā€™ā€

Biden, in a post on social media platform X, said that his comment was in reference to what he called Trumpā€™s ā€œdemonization of Latinos.ā€ …

Bidenā€™s remarks drew a quick rebuke from the Trump side. Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt in a statement said that ā€œJoe Biden and Kamala Harris donā€™t just hate President Trump, they despise the tens of millions of Americans who support him.ā€ …

Trump drew a parallel between Bidenā€™s comment and those made by then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, who in September 2016 said, ā€œYou could put half of Trumpā€™s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables.ā€

The comments at the time sparked fierce backlash. In a 2017 memoir Clinton recounted the comment as being one of the factors that led to her election loss. …

The Bible says to “let no corrupt word proceed of your mouth,” although it seems that these are all too common in politics these days. Share your prayers for unity below.

There are two scriptures that come to mind. These are the words that Jesus spoke.
Matthew 12:34 and Luke 6:45 both state that “out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” This implies that words should not be taken lightly and dismissed. President Biden, by his policies/actions , has shown that he is not a God-fearing man. His disdain for God fearing men and women was displayed loud and clear for the everyone to see.

Did President Trump make those comments? No.

Did President Biden make that comment? Yes.

Did President Trump personally schedule and review the outlines of every speaker at the Rally? Highly doubtful.

Did President Biden read the teleprompter as even the mainstream media report and then go off script? Yes.

There are many praying for the salvation of those who profess acceptance and furtherance of late term on demand abortions, mutilation of children by furthering ā€œtransingā€,
man-made marriage vs Godā€™s design,
Infiltration of our country with murderers, rapists, child and drug traffickers, robbers, hackers, violence seekers, gangs, election interference, voting interference, law fare, indoctrination of schools, censorship etc.

The Most High over ALL the Earth, Migdal-Oz- Strong Tower: Surely You are the Only – One True God. Surely You are listening and hearing our prayers and seeing our fasting, surely You, Creator, Prince of Peace, Paraclete are ruling over and over ruling the atrocities of this present age.

Father, You created Your heavenly beings, Your Angels for Your purposes. It was one – called Lucifer – that decided to rail and attempt to take over.
The evil one and 1/3 of the Angels were cast out. We, humans, also make choices that either steers us toward You or away from You. Open our eyes to realize which direction we are heading.

Thank You, LORD, for Patience, Providence and Provision. In Jesus Name. Amen..

Father, help President Trump by the leading of your Holy Spirit rise above the rhetoric. What Trump said in response to Biden comment was “Forgive him(Biden) because he knows not what he does”.
As Christians we are called to pray for our enemies. I pray all of Mr. Trumps enemies would come to salvation. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
