Former President Trump rolled up to the battleground state of Wisconsin in a garbage truck on Wednesday, an apparent reference to President Biden's remarks about supporters of the Republican nominee, which has caused a firestorm for Vice President Kamala Harris in the final days of a hotly contested election. 

Trump was pictured in Green Bay inside a white garbage truck wearing an orange reflective vest with "Trump Make America Great Again 2024" emblazoned on the vehicle. 

"How do you like my garbage truck?" Trump asked reporters. "This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden."

The stunt is an apparent dig at Biden, who has come under fire for calling Trump supporters garbage. 

During a virtual Harris campaign call with Voto Latino, Biden took a swipe at former Trump's weekend rally in Madison Square Garden, which made headlines after insult comedian Tony Hinchiffe made jokes mocking different ethnic groups, with one joke referring to Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage."

"The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters," Biden said. "His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable and it is un-American."

The comment quickly went viral and sparked swift condemnation from critics.

Biden's remarks were quickly compared to Hillary Clinton, who declared that Trump supporters were "deplorables" during the 2016 presidential race. 

Trump himself reacted to the "terrible" comment from Biden while speaking at a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

"Remember Hillary? She said ‘deplorable' and then said ‘irredeemable,’ right? But she said ‘deplorable.' That didn't work out. ‘Garbage’ I think is worse," Trump said to his supporters at a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania on Tuesday night. "But he doesn't know- you have to please forgive him. Please forgive him. For he not knoweth what he said."  

"And I'm convinced he likes me more than he likes Kamala," Trump quipped.

On Wednesday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Biden doesn't view Trump supporters as "garbage."

"He has said multiple times that he is a president for all. It doesn't matter if in a red state. It doesn't matter if you live in a blue state," she said. 

Vivek Ramaswamy was also seen riding on the back of a garbage truck in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Wednesday. Ramaswamy, who threw his support to Trump after dropping out of the presidential race, wore a yellow reflective vest while greeting supporters.

Dollar set for best week since November on US rates, economic outlook

By Rae Wee SINGAPORE () -The dollar was on track for its best weekly performance in over a month on Friday, underpinned by expectations of fewer Federal Reserve rate cuts this year and the view that the U.S. economy will continue to outperform the rest of its peers globally. The greenback began the new year on a strong note reaching a more than two-year high of 109.54 against a basket of currencies on Thursday as it extended a stellar rally from last year. Its charge higher has come on the back of a more hawkish Fed and a resilient U.S. economy. "Looks like dollar strength is here to stay for now in early 2025 given the U.S. exceptionalism story is here to stay, and it still comes with high U.S. yields," said Charu Chanana, chief investment strategist at Saxo. "Add to that the uncertainty from policies of the incoming (Donald) Trump administration, and you also get the safety aspect of the dollar looking attractive." Ahead of U.S. President-elect Trump'...

Stocks and dollar end 2024 steady, 2025 all about Trump

By Ankur Banerjee and Alun John SINGAPORE/LONDON () -World stocks held steady on Tuesday in cautious year-end trading that has seen investors bracing for the incoming Donald Trump administration by scaling back bets on deep U.S. interest rate cuts in 2025, helping the dollar stand tall against most other currencies. Volumes were light with a holiday for the New Year looming, with the Santa-rally largely failing to materialise as elevated Treasury yields weigh on high equity valuations and boost the greenback. MSCI's world share index was flat on the day, but set to wrap up 2025 with a 16% annual gain. This year's rally has been largely a U.S. phenomenon, with the having risen around 24% compared with an 8% gain for MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan, and just 5% for Europe's . () But the mood latterly has been more cautious on the back of higher U.S. Treasury yields. The yield on the 10-year note reached 4.64% late last week, its highest...
