Donald Trump Jr. dressed as trash for Halloween to hit back at President Joe Biden for calling Trump supporters 'garbage.'

Trump Jr. appeared in his getup in an Instagram post he made Thursday. He wore a black trash bag around him with leftover plastic and paper bags attached to him and a red Trump 2024 flag covering his back.

He proudly posed in his unusual costume while out trick-or-treating with his family, including his ex-wife Vanessa Trump and his daughter Kai, who spoke at the Republican National Convention in support of her grandfather.

'Happy Halloween,' he wrote in the caption. 'Embrace their hate and own it. I’m garbage like the rest of you deplorable and irredeemables!!! Love you all hope you have a blast tonight.'

This the latest reaction to Biden's explosive comments on Tuesday, when he condemned Tony Hinchcliffe's joke at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally that called Puerto Rico a 'floating island of garbage.'

Joe Biden made the incendiary comments in response to Tony Hinchcliffe's joke about Puerto Rico being a 'floating island of garbage'

'The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters, his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it's un-American,' Biden told Latino voters during an outreach call on Zoom. 'It's totally contrary to everything we've done, everything we've been.'

Trump Jr. previously said: 'The media spent all week crying about a joke from a comedian. Meanwhile, Tim Walz called Trump supporters Nazis. Kamala Harris refused to condemn it.

'And now Kamala's biggest Democrat ally, Joe Biden, is calling all Trump supporters "garbage". Absolutely disgusting!!!'

Trump Jr. appeared to be following in his father's footsteps. The elder Trump showed up to a rally in Wisconsin on Wednesday in a garbage truck while wearing a bright orange vest.

'How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden,' he told the waiting media.

'For Joe Biden to make that statement — it's really a disgrace,' he added before speaking to supporters while Harris addressed her own fans in a different part of the state.

During a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Trump said Biden's remarks were 'worse' than Hillary Clinton's infamous 'basket of deplorables' comment eight years ago.

'Please forgive him for he knoweth not what he say. Honestly he doesn't. And I'm convinced that he likes me more than he likes Kamala,' Trump continued in a nod to Biden's declining mental abilities.

Democrats, too, attempted to distance themselves from what Biden said.

Most notably, Vice President Kamala Harris told reporters Wednesday: 'Let me be clear...I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for.' 

As the gaffe exploded on social media Biden sought to limit the damage.

He said on X: 'Earlier today I referred to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump's supporter at his Madison Square Garden rally as garbage - which is the only word I can think of to describe it.

'His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I meant to say. The comments at that rally don't reflect who we are as a nation.'

This comes as it was revealed that the White House slyly altered the official transcript of Biden's 'garbage' comments

According to the official transcript prepared by White House stenographers, Biden said on the Tuesday call: 'The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters - his - his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.'

However, the transcript released by the White House press office altered the word supporters. It said 'supporter's' rather than a plural 'supporters.'

This change, according to aides, corrects Biden's statement to imply he was criticizing Hinchcliffe alone, not the millions of Americans voting for Trump, the Associated Press reported.

According to the report, the press office changed the transcript before the head of the stenographer's office could verify its accuracy.

'If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,' the head of the office wrote in an internal email.
