President Joe Biden called Donald Trump’s MSG rally “simply embarrassing” and “beneath any president” before casting an early ballot in Delaware on Monday. The rally, which was filled with viral moments from beginning to end, opened with racist and xenophobic jokes from comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, a man wielding a cross while calling Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris the “Antichrist,” and much more. Biden told reporters after he voted that the “single most consequential thing about a president is character,” and Trump “puts that in question every time he opens his mouth.” “It‘s embarrassing, simply embarrassing,” said Biden. “It’s beneath any president.” Speakers at the Republican nominee’s rally included billionaire Elon Musk; Tucker Carlson, who referred to Harris as “Samoan-Malaysian,” (she is Jamaican and Indian); and Hinchcliffe, of the podcast, Kill Tony, who called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.” Trump fans rallied outside MSG on Sunday, peeing in bottles to stay in line. Harris also disavowed the rally, saying, “Donald Trump spends full-time trying to have Americans point their finger at each other, fans the fuel of hate and division, and that’s why people are exhausted with him.”
