Former President Donald Trump spoke for more than 90 minutes in Wilkes-Barre. He said the Pennsylvania will determine the election.
Vice President Kamala Harris will campaign in Pennsylvania on Sunday. Trump will return to the state Monday.
“They said, ‘No, her biggest advantage is that she’s a beautiful woman,’” Trump said. “... I’m better looking than she is.” “Any Jewish person that votes for her or a Democrat has to go out and have their head examined,” Trump said. “If you see what’s happening with Israel and Jewish people, there has never been a more dangerous time since the Holocaust if you happen to be Jewish in America.”
Harris will visit the state Sunday with a stop in Pittsburgh before the Democratic National Convention. Both Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, will be back in Pennsylvania on Monday as both campaigns see the election hinging on the state. “We’re here to support Donald Trump’s policies to make the economy better, to make things more affordable,” said Linda Gubitose, 54, of Wilkes-Barre. “I just want costs to come down.”Pennsylvania’s status as a battleground state likely was a primary factor in the agreement by Trump and Harris to debate next month in Philadelphia, but Trump indicated he wasn’t necessarily pleased with the arrangements and the fact that it would be broadcast on ABC, which he called “the worst network.
