NextImg:White House altered Biden 'garbage' transcript without stenographer approval - Washington Examiner

The White House altered the official transcript of President Joe Biden‘s disputed remarks regarding former President Donald Trump’s supporters.

White House press aides made the changes to the transcript, stenographed by career, nonpolitical federal employees, on Tuesday, according to two government officials and an internal email obtained Thursday by the Associated Press.

According to the original transcript, Biden told the Latino advocacy organization Voto Latino, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”

But the transcript released by the White House’s press office included an apostrophe, so it read “supporter’s” and not “supporters,” after speaking with Biden but not the stenography office’s manager. 

The White House did not respond to the Washington Examiner’s request for comment.

Biden’s comment has created problems for Vice President Kamala Harris on the campaign trail as Republicans compare it to 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” remark eight years ago.

Biden’s “garbage” comment was in reference to a joke made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Sunday. Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico, the diaspora from which is an important voting demographic, a “floating island of garbage.”
