CNN commentator and former Donald Trump campaign chair Corey Lewandowski said Trump's economy-focused speech Tuesday was his "best speech of the presidential cycle." Too bad everyone was too busy staring at the literal mound of trash behind Trump to listen to it:
Yes, that actually is trash — or, to be more specific, crushed aluminum cans — behind Trump. The presumptive GOP nominee was likely going for a message about supporting American industry, as he was speaking at Alumisource, which CNN describes as "a raw material producer for the aluminum and steel industries in Monessen, Pennsylvania."
Looks like he just opened himself up to a whole lotta trash talking instead.
