It's worrying to me that "Trump bad" so often enables the use of rhetoric that we wouldn't find acceptable in relation to other candidates. Also not from the US, and after the joke was made, I read headlines about this in half a dozen different places, and in every one of them the headline made it seem like Trump had out of nowhere said Puerto Rico was an island of trash. It seemingly made no sense but to be fair stuff he says often doesn't. Only at the end of the day when I got out of work and actually read one of the news pieces did I realize it hadn't actually been Trump saying it and it had been in the context of a shitty stand up moment.

The context doesn't make the joke any better, of course, but I find it weird that people are apparently so ok with news websites twisting information like this as long as it is against Trump.
