"Island of garbage" billboards launched in PA at midnight, 13 total, 2 digital near Trump's rally, English / Spanish

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

With Mr. Trump set to hold a rally Tuesday night in Allentown, Pa., which has a significant Puerto Rican population, the Democratic Party said it had invested in two digital highway billboards in the city that highlight the slight of the American territory.

The Democratic Party said the billboards shift back and forth between English and Spanish, displaying a Washington Post headline: “Trump rally speakers lob racist insults, call Puerto Rico ‘island of garbage.’”

The billboards appeared to serve two purposes — trolling the former president and appealing to voters who may have been offended by the rally on Sunday in Manhattan, where the comedian Tony Hinchcliffe dismissed Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”

The billboards started showing the message at midnight, according to the Democratic National Committee. Two more billboards displayed the message in Philadelphia, and nine carried it in Reading, Pa., the party said.
