On Tuesday afternoon, presidential candidate Donald Trump delivered a speech against a backdrop of compacted garbage.

The trade speech was held at a Monessen, Pennsylvania recycling plant. It's understandable that the recycling facility amasses a lot of used aluminum bottles, cans and scrap metal. Less understandable is Trump's choice to slam the Trans-Pacific Partnership in front of a sticky trash pile, but we can't all be campaign managers.

And, because the Internet loves a good metaphor, the garbage jokes are flowing aplenty.

Maybe the Trump campaign should have opted for a wider shot and a machinery backdrop. It looks a lot cooler, with the added bonus of not being garbage.

We have not yet heard Wall-E's opinion on this development.
