armed thumbs thugs trying to defend confederate statues. he won pennsylvania in 2016, and really lost it by 20,000 votes in 2020. the leading poll has dug mastriano down by three points to the democrat josh apparel. but mast row no can absolutely win in pennsylvania. he can actually become governor and ban abortion. he can actually become governor and cultivate support from the kind of armed thugs it standards of the robert e. lee statue. which what makes president biden speech there on thursday all the more relevant. president is going to lay out what is at stake, highlight with our many attempts to protect democracy it s still risk not in some abstract way. remember, we all watched the buildup to january six happened in realtime. nobody was really hiding it. it s rigged, it s rigged people were saying. he didn t do it overnight, it
