Whoever writes President Joe Biden's social media posts tried to erase the fact that he called Trump supporters "garbage" with a lame post on X: "His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I meant to say." Sure, Jan. When did Donald Trump demonize Latinos? At his Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden? An insult comic made a joke about Puerto Rico — that's not Trump's supporters demonizing Latinos. (Whatever happened to Latinx?)

As we reported, CBS News' attempt to spin away the comment was embarrassing, saying that "Republicans seized" on what "appeared to be" Biden calling Trump supporters garbage. "Hold my beer," said the Washington Post, which reported that Republicans "have long strained" for a new Hillary Clinton-"deplorables" moment, but Biden's defense "is entirely plausible."
Did Biden call Trump supporters ‘garbage’? It comes down to an apostrophe. https://t.co/Xe8DwXkNte

This is a far more embarrassing thing to publish than any endorsement or non-endorsement of a presidential candidate. pic.twitter.com/xRn9wo7M0O

It's "entirely plausible" except for the fact that it makes no sense. And it's on video.

This is moronic. So if there was an apostrophe it's still wrong because it denotes possessive of a singular -- because the idiotic WH staffer forgot to pluralize "supporter." Get seriously absolutely bent. https://t.co/XqbxjzzlsF

They couldn't even alter the transcript correctly. And Biden has no defense, even though at least two pundits have blamed his alleged stutter.

You mean it comes down to whether other people can rewrite what he said.

I must have missed the English class lesson where they taught us to hear apostrophes. Then again, I’m just garbage.

There is no grand mystery as to the reason Americans loathe journos more than anyone else on Earth.

He said it, he didn't write it.
You're trying to skip past the key part.

Without you all I would make the mistake of believing my eyes and ears.
That’s absurd. It was the end of a sentence.

The apostrophe is made up. It comes down to a simple declarative sentence he made on video that clearly has a distinct pause at the end where the sentence ended. Stop defending the indefensible @JeffBezos

It doesn’t come down to an apostrophe, because he didn’t write the remark out. He spoke it. And he clearly spoke it as a complete sentence, and ended it with the word “supporters.” Voice dropped, ended sentence, left a space, then started a new sentence.
Stop fucking lying.

You clowns. You're going to end up not existing at all.

So it comes down to an apostrophe. Even if you do wrangle an apostrophe into the transcript, as the White House did, he comes out saying that Trump supporters demonize Latinos. That's not much better.
