Pennsylvania is emerging as a crucial battleground in the 2024 presidential election, with many predicting that the winner of the Keystone State will ultimately claim the White House. Former President Donald Trump appears to be acutely aware of the state’s significance, as evidenced by his campaign’s recent surge of activity across Pennsylvania.
Trump’s campaign has announced a bus tour, dubbed the “Team Trump Bus Tour,” which will kick off on Monday and continue throughout the remainder of October. The tour will feature a series of events and rallies aimed at energizing supporters and mobilizing the campaign’s base in the state.
Trump has already spent considerable time in Pennsylvania during the campaign, including a visit to Butler in July where he was the target of an assassination attempt during a campaign rally. He returned to the state earlier this month for another rally, and has since held two town halls in the state. On Sunday alone, Trump began his day by serving french fries at a McDonald’s in suburban Philadelphia, before holding a town hall in Lancaster and attending the Sunday Night NFL game between the New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has also been active in the state, holding two rallies in suburban Philadelphia over the past four days. Meanwhile, the Trump campaign is pulling out all the stops to win the state in the election.
The “Team Trump Bus Tour” will feature a star-studded lineup of speakers and performers, including Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN), Slippery Rock Mayor JD Longo, former New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, former White House Deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs Monica Crowley, and others. The tour will also feature appearances by Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Trump adviser Kimberly Guilfoyle.
The tour will take place from October 21 to October 26, and will stop in cities across the state, including Bethlehem, Allentown, Wilkes-Barre, State College, Punxsutawney, Erie, New Castle, Canonsburg, Monroeville, Duncansville, Chambersburg, Carlisle, and Hershey. With the “Team Trump Bus Tour” set to hit the road, the stakes are high for the Trump campaign as it seeks to win over voters in the critical battleground state of Pennsylvania.
