What will Trump say during his MAGA rally in Philadelphia?

According to his campaign, Trump will attempt to paint President Joe Biden as an out-of-touch leader who has let the economy spiral out of control.

"President Trump will highlight how Biden’s weak presidency is devastating American families, which is why only 34 percent of Pennsylvanians approve of the job Joe Biden is doing," read a news release form Donald J. Trump for President 2024, Inc. "The great people of Pennsylvania are feeling the effects of Biden’s failed policies where it hurts the most – their wallets. Life is excruciatingly expensive under Joe Biden, with prices spiking more than 17% since Biden took office. Run-away inflation caused by Bidenomics is costing the average family in Pennsylvania nearly $1,000 per month."

Trump also plans on attacking Biden's stance on crime.
