Harris also appeared in Nevada on Thursday. The Democratic candidate was accompanied by showbiz star Jennifer Lopez. She talked about why she doesn't support Donald Trump.
– He is constantly working to divide us. During the rally at Madison Square Garden, he reminded us who he really is and what he feels. Not only Puerto Ricans were offended that day, but every Latino in the country. Humanity, every decent person, was insulted, she emphasized.

Storm after words about the “floating island of garbage”
The artist referred to Trump's seven-hour rally at the famous Madison Square Garden in New Yorkwhich took place on Sunday, where a statement by stand-up comedian Tony Hinchcliffe aroused controversy. – I don't know if you know, but in the middle of the ocean there is now literally a floating island of garbage. “I think it's called Puerto Rico,” the comedian said.
The candidate of the Republican Party in his hometown was announced by the former first lady of the White House, Melania Trump. Tens of thousands of people participated in it. It was probably the biggest rally of the current campaign.
This caused outrage among citizens, some of whom have Puerto Rican roots. The president responded to these words Joe Biden and stated that “the only trash he sees are his supporters.” His statement may have suggested that he was referring to Trump's supporters, but the White House and Biden himself argue that he meant “hateful rhetoric.”
