Trump Lands Endorsements From Five PA House Members

Former president Donald Trump

Is Pennsylvania Trump Country?

Five members of the Keystone State’s GOP congressional delegation say yes.

Former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign announced Friday that he has secured the endorsements of Reps. Dan Meuser (R-09), Scott Perry (R-10), John Joyce (R-13), Guy Reschenthaler (R-14) and Mike Kelly (R-16).

They, along with former Rep. Fred Keller and Carla Sands, will serve as part of the campaign’s Pennsylvania Federal Leadership Team to “to build a coalition of support that will compete for and earn the support of Pennsylvania’s Delegates to the Republican National Convention and win Pennsylvania’s 19 Electoral Votes next November.”

According to FiveThirtyEight, Trump leads all Republican candidates with announced endorsements, indicating a strong level of GOP support for his attempted return to the White House.

POLITICO is reporting that Trump and his team have been pushing aggressively to win the backing of congressional Republicans: Earlier this week, he hosted several of the Pennsylvania members for dinner at his Bedminster, N.J. golf club. Brian Jack, Trump’s former White House political director, coordinated the endorsements with the help of TV ad maker John Brabender, a Pennsylvania political veteran.

The congressional quintet have had a close relationship with the former president for some time. Trump endorsed each of them during last year’s midterm elections, while Kelly was the first House member to announce his support for Trump in 2016.

The other Republicans in the Pennsylvania delegation – Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-01), Lloyd Smucker (R-11) and Glenn Thompson (R-15) – have not endorsed a candidate at this time.

  1. PA is not Trump country & past elections, which were legal, despite lies to contrary, have proven as much. Trump’s message, as twice impeached, single term former president, who proceeded to enlist help of seated PAGOP elected officials, such as Scott Perry & Doug Mastriano to overturn PA legal/fair election results by using fake electorates claiming Trump as winner, have no place in PA. Not only can Trump not be trusted here, any official found involved on any level, must be voted out. They cannot be trusted to uphold sworn oath, nor protect PA votes/voters. PA is not Trump country, nor should it be.

    1. PA election of 2020 was filthy. Act 77 violated PA Constitution Article 14-millions of mail-out ballots. Trump winning by over half a million votes the night of Nov 3, and then over the NEXT 4 DAYS, Biden gets spikes with no down-ballot races checked, and “wins” with 85 thousand some votes? NOPE. It was massive fraud, due to Boockvar and Shapiro and many others.

  2. All of these Republican Congressman who have endorsed Trump in Pennsylvania, should be voted out in 2024. They have violated their oaths in office, “to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States from against all enemies, both foreign & domestic.” Any Republican who supports Trump, didn’t vote for his impeachment, voted against certifying Biden as President in 2020 and to sanction Representative Adam Schiff for trying to Impeach & remove Trump from office, should be voted out of office. They are all unfit.

    1. Re elect no one! Especially these folks who can’t tell lies from truth.
