the high light, how is this structural law helping to build back. we go to philadelphia for a closed door fund-raiser with the democratic senator nominee john fetterman. another trip to pennsylvania is a reminder the president is simply not welcome by many across the country, and the president is skipping traditional campaign rallies, choosing instead to mostly hold low key events on administrative policy wins. when asked why he s not out on the campaign trail, he insists he is. there hasn t been that many candidates campaigning with you. that s not true. there ve been 15. count. let s get straight to mj lee. she s live from pittsburgh. what are we hearing from the president? reporter: well, john, you will recall it was back in january the president was supposed to visit pittsburgh, an literally hours before that it was behind me where he was standing but fortunately nobody was killed at the time, but the timing of it is really incredibly coincidental because the occ
