Donald Trump is still sowing chaos in Pennsylvania Republican politics.
“Do not vote for Bill McSwain, a coward, who let our Country down,” Trump said Tuesday. “He knew what was happening and let it go. It was there for the taking and he failed so badly.”From last year: Bill McSwain tried to walk a political tightrope on Trump’s election lies. Bill Barr cut it.
“I’m proud of my record as U.S. Attorney,” McSwain said in a statement. “When I’m governor, we’re going to get back to a voting system that everyone has confidence in, and that begins with repealing the unconstitutional mail-in balloting law, Act 77, that Doug Mastriano voted for.” McSwain has reserved more than $2 million worth of TV ads through the primary and is currently spending more on television than any other candidate, according to AdImpact, which tracks political advertising. So while he has the cash to tell a positive story about his candidacy, it remains to be seen whether lesser-funded rivals will be able to tell voters about Trump’s assessment of him.
McSwain, by contrast, is trying to build a broader conservative coalition by presenting himself as a more traditional law-and-order candidate with strong credentials on other key issues like abortion. Still, one Pennsylvania GOP insider called Trump’s criticism “pretty game-changing in a Republican primary.”Republicans running for Pa. governor talk a lot about Philly crime.
