“Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t care about the Latino community… Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of trash?… floating there. The only trash there is his supporters,” he said.
The president was referring to comments made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe during former President Donald Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden, in which he called Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory home to American citizens, a “floating island of trash.”

“Earlier today, I called the hateful anti-Puerto Rican rhetoric spewed by Trump supporters at the Madison Square Garden rally trash, and that's the only word I can think of to describe it. The demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I wanted to say. The comments at that rally do not reflect who we are as a nation,” the president said.
