On Politics: Thursday wasn’t about Lou, not really
Many in the audience made it clear they want Trump to run for re-election in 2020.
Sure, Trump wants Barletta to win.
He told the audience to go out and vote Republican.
Casey, the president said, invoking more fears, wants to eliminate U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE) and doesn’t mind the MS-13 gang “slicers” coming into America.
“We need Lou Barletta.
He’s tough,” Trump said, adding: “I hear Bob Casey is afraid to debate Lou Barletta.
I want to watch that debate.” Donald Trump spent more time Thursday night talking about Bob Casey than about Lou Barletta.
Donald Trump may well have spent more time talking about tea with the Queen of England Thursday night than he did about Lou Barletta.
There was nothing Trump was going to tell this audience about Barletta that they don’t already know.
It is, perhaps, worth asking whether Trump might have wanted to say a bit more about Barletta to those TV audiences elsewhere in Pennsylvania who don’t know Lou as well, but what he needed most to do was convince anyone on the fence that Casey is liberal and scary.
