President Trump and Joe Biden gave a debate performance preview of sorts in different swing states on Thursday as the Democratic nominee called for the president to step down over his Covid-19 response while Trump hammered Biden over his policy agenda.
The president fired up his hundreds of supporters that gathered at an airport hangar in Mosinee, which is a country he won in 2016. Trump's campaign is focusing on turning out base supporters in more rural parts of the state in order to offset deficits he is expected to face against Biden in cities and suburbs.
“Biden surrendered your jobs to China, and you know that. I probably would not be here if it were not for that,” Trump said, later adding"If Biden wins, very simple, China wins. If Biden wins, the mob wins. If Biden wins, the rioters, the anarchists, the arsonists win.” During his flight back to Washington aboard Air Force One, Trump appeared to place the delivery of that money on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's shoulders as Congress and his administration continue to debate the next round of coronavirus aid.
“I really do view this campaign as a campaign between Scranton and Park Avenue,” Biden said. “Because you know, the way we were raised up here in this area, an awful lot of hardworking people busting their neck. All they ask for is a shot, just a shot. All that Trump could see from Park Avenue is Wall Street.”
One of the tensest moments of the town hall was when Cooper pressed Biden on fracking, an industry that is big in Pennsylvania. Trump has claimed Biden wants to ban it, but the former vice president has said he only wants to ban new fracking on public lands.
