WP Morning Mix: Trump says Biden 'deserted' Pennsylvania. In Scranton, he's a 'hometown boy.'


Big mistake on Trump's part - he is running scared and, at the same time, elevating Biden. Based on the Washington Post's comments section, Trump's idiotic remark is definitely backfiring...

Remember those a-holes who used to claim that Hillary had no connections to Chicago (where she grew up) and Ohio (where she stayed with her grandparents?)

Lots of people have connections to multiple places, it's one of the chief charms of this great country.
