The MSM would show 20 min of an empty stage and podium waiting for him to speak but wouldn't discuss any of the real issues that Hillary knew about and was ready to discuss but no one wanted to listen FUCK CNN continuing this shit!

Trump is heading to Pennsylvania to hold a last-minute campaign rally for Republican Rick Saccone.
In a district Trump carried in 2016.
By almost 20 points.
The GOP is panicked over what should be an easy pickup.
Yet another sign that Democrats have built up serious momentum.

(32,854 posts)The 18th Congressional District is made up of a few counties surrounding Pittsburgh, and that's where Saccone is running for the House seat vacated by Tim Murphy last fall. This isn't a "deep-red" district as the MSM like to say, it's very nearly 50/50 Dems/GOP.
However gerrymandering of this district made it easy for Murphy to win re-election in a skate for the last 4 or 5 cycles. Now he's gone and of the 2 candidates running, neither is incumbent. We've been mentioning the Dem candidate Conor Lamb a lot on DU recently, he's got a good chance to win this. He's a great-looking candidate and the Democrats are on fire. Joe Biden came to stump for him a couple of days ago.
Saccone is the R and doesn't have much going for him except the religious right and "anti-Nancy Pelosi." Trump has been talking him up, but what good is his endorsement at this point? We'll see in 3 days.
Go Conor Lamb!

Adjusted for inflation, wage growth during Trump's presidency has dropped down to zero.

Trump, hedging a bit in his attacks on Democrat Lamb, says he might like Lamb if he meets him, since Lamb is saying nice things about him and he tends to like people who say nice things about him, and then Republican Saccone will be mad.
