April 16 – President Joe Biden will visit his hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania today to begin a three-day campaign tour of the state.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has also made numerous appearances in Pennsylvania.
“Pennsylvania is truly becoming the epicenter of the 2024 presidential election,” said attorney Clint Barkdoll. Together, he and Trump have visited Pennsylvania more than any other state so far. Biden is going to Scranton. I think he'll be stopping by Pittsburgh and maybe Philadelphia to talk about the economy and taxes. I don't know if he plans to roll out any new programs, but this is all a big part of his 2024 presidential campaign. At a few stops, I want to know if Bob Casey is there. Is Josh Shapiro there? Are other Democrats with him? I know there has always been some debate about this in the past. Would they like to be on stage with him? Or maybe they don't want to go on stage with him and take pictures, so they still want to see it today. ”
NewsTalk 103.7FM's Pat Ryan predicted: Bob Casey, not so much. I think the cycle is too fast here. We know that Mr. McCormick received a middling endorsement from Mr. Trump at the former president's rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend. ”
Apparently, a week from today, Dave McCormick, who is running as a Republican for Bob Casey's U.S. Senate seat in Pennsylvania, will join the Bush family at a fundraiser where each plate will cost $2,500.
Ryan said, “It really exudes the atmosphere of the Bush family. I remember wanting to wash my skin off of the Bush family, the Clinton family, and the Obama family. Just listening to Bush and McCormick talk, those points automatically hit me. It leads to
“The Bush family has traditionally kept a low profile in politics, which is why their participation in the fundraiser is notable,” Barkdoll said. Mr. Trump endorsed Mr. McCormick, but it was not the most enthusiastic support he had ever seen. But once again, McCormick was nowhere to be found. He very deliberately avoided gatherings. One wonders if he is employing the Glenn Youngkin strategy. Recall that Mr. Yonkin was elected governor of Virginia and was friendly with Mr. Trump and carefully managed his campaign. He accepted President Trump's support. But since Mr. Trump never invites him to any rallies and avoids appearing with him anywhere, I'm beginning to suspect that Mr. McCormick is trying to use the same strategy here. There is. ”
