Biden takes stage & talks about his history running for the Senate in Delaware and coming to Pittsburgh to get the United Steelworkers endorsement & how crucial it was to his victory. He then praises Fetterman & said “if I have to be in a fox hole, I want John Fetterman with me” pic.twitter.com/1VAQTltUn2

The sparse turnout for Biden in his homes state comes two days after President Trump packed the 10,000 seat Mohegan Sun Arena at a rally in Wilke-Barre.
The crowd in West Mifflin for Biden is even smaller than the one for his own Wilkes-Barre rally that preceded Trump’s that drew a few hundred.

Here is what they looked like back to back.

Videos and photos from West Mifflin show Biden arriving with Democrat U.S. Senate nominee Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (who put on long pasts like a big boy for the event) and Senator Bob Casey (D).
The sparse clapping and underwhelming cheers for 81 million vote getter Joe Biden in his home state of Pennsylvania must be heard to be believed.

The set-up anticipated a paltry crowd. Local school board races draw more supporters.

Incredible.
TGP reported earlier Monday that Biden barely filled park benches at a rally in Wisconsin.
