PHILADELPHIA — When President Donald Trump told the world that “bad things happen in Philadelphia,” it was, in part, a blunt assessment of his party's struggles in the nation's sixth-most populous city.

And it came as Trump openly declared, citing no evidence, that the only way he can lose Pennsylvania to former Vice President Joe Biden is through a massive fraud engineered by Democrats in the city of 1.6 million. Trump’s victory was the first by a Republican presidential candidate since 1988, and it shocked Pennsylvania Democrats to the core.

Trump's campaign, meanwhile, opened offices in heavily Black west Philadelphia and in heavily white northeast Philadelphia. Some of his friends are skeptical that voting will change anything. Ayres, who is Black, admitted that makes him wonder, “Wow, why did I vote?” “Back the Blue” yard signs and thin-blue-line flags are everywhere in some neighborhoods, the city’s police union endorsed Trump again and the city’s firefighters and paramedics union also endorsed him, breaking with its international association’s endorsement of Biden.

Still, the area snapped back for Democrats in 2018 and U.S. Rep. Brendan Boyle, who represents it in Congress, said he expects Biden to do better there than Clinton.

The problem for Trump is when he makes these scathing critiques of these places, people understand that he has no intention of helping them. He's just using their pain as a prop to be forgotten as soon as he sets his sights on the next target to critique & verbally tear down.

He has a hedge trimmer and he is supposed to be menacing. HA!

Trump administration denies California relief for 6 firesPresident Trump’s administration rejects California’s request for disaster relief funds aimed at cleaning up the damage from six recent wildfires. The fires are among the siege of deadly and destructive blazes that have scorched the state. Im not from the usa let me give you little trick i learned from our local mayor: he went around all of the rich people who had buisnesses and found every little crime they did and said to them if you dont rebuild the city you will all go to jail guess what happened. They did. The Federal government is responsible & you never mention the fact publicly. The California governordid because you were complaining they were'nt cleaning the FLOOR of the Forest I heard both of you live. You complaining & he telling the truth RE: CLEANING Probably said no because your awesome governor would take the money and give it to illegals. Oh wait, didn't he just give some of the stimulus money to illegals? Should have used that money for your tax payers whom lost everything.
