White House press officials altered the official transcript of a call in which President Joe Biden appeared to take a swipe at supporters of Donald Trump, drawing objections from the federal workers who document such remarks for posterity, according to two U.S. government officials and an internal email obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.

Biden, according to a transcript prepared by the official White House stenographers, told the Latino group on a Tuesday evening video call, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”

The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,” which aides said pointed to Biden criticizing Hinchcliffe, not the millions of Americans who are supporting Trump for president.

    If there is one thing Democrats can learn from Republicans, it’s to shamelessly own your beliefs. Don’t try to cover them up, walk them back, or deny them.

    When they called Harris a DEI hire, should have said “Fuck yah she is! And should be!”

    Trump calls lefty liberals the enemy within? Biden can call Trump supporters trash. Personally I’d call them American Taliban.
