Maybe if it's still empty š¤£. I just remembered that there's also a Target in Harmar as well, if it's fine that it's not Walmart for a discount chain!

I think there's already a TJ Maxx and Marshalls at that mall, unless they've closed in the nearly 5 years since I frequented that area. Ollie's would be a good thing to have there I think.

Yeah, it definitely wasn't that great of a store and I don't really care for Walmart in general, but it absolutely served a purpose for that area. I'm not sure what could be interested in taking that store space too. There is a Target not that far from there already, and the days of smaller regional discount department store chains like Ames has been over for 20 years now.

I get that plane is the easiest way for him to travel with everything that needs to be brought when the president travels, but to me it just felt like the visit was so short and brief it wasn't worth everything that came with it.

Thinking the sun is the reason for man-made climate change is on point for someone who considers a comment that said white people will come up with any excuse to vote for Republican to be racist lmao.

I'm regularly in Mt Washington, the Southside, and Carrick, so I'm calling bs that you supposedly see all of these Trump signs within 10 minutes of your apartment. Your supposed signing sightings are nothing but antidotal evidence, not real data. Donald Trump lost Allegheny County by 20 points, so there is little that is Republican about this county.

I thought you were done replying to me two posts ago lol. Like I really give a fuck what would think of me anyway... And yeah, I kind of did show you were wrong considering states with a 9 point separation in how they vote in a presidential election aren't really that similar.
Friendly reminder also once again that half of Pennsylvanians live in blue Allegheny County or SPEA, not in whatever you're surrounded by in the backwoods.

No, but I think it's fair to ask if this 2-hour at most I'm guessing visit is worth the emissions it will generate.

I agree with you. We are in a climate crisis, so we should be doing all we can to reduce emissions as much as possible. I don't see much of a point to this presidential visit either.

Lol sorry I used facts and they showed you were wrong. I never said PAV isn't Trumpy in parts, just that it's nowhere as red as Ohio, and that's a fact. Ohio is a red state at this point, and Pennsylvania is still a purple state.

Don't be a troll. You know perfectly well Biden won in PA by 1% when Trump won in Ohio by 8%. So that means Pennsylvania is 9 points to the left of Ohio, because math is still a thing that matters.
Funny you bring up Youngstown too considering it is in one of the few counties in the country that went from voting for Clinton to Trump.

It was more Trumpy than Texas in 2020, so that's really all you need to know about how it has gone politically in the last 10 years.

I have cousins who went to Harper's ferry last year, and I would vote for that too based on what they told me.

Oh I was only thinking of the second vote with that.
On June 30, 2021, the resolution, H.Res. 503 Establishing the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol, passed on the House floor by a vote of 222 to 190, with all Democratic members and two Republican members, Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, voting in favor.18l sixteen Republican members did not vote. The resolution empowered Pelosi to appoint eight members to the committee, and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy could appoint five members "in consultation' with the Speaker.

He also never voted to impeach Trump and did not vote in favor of establishing a committee to investigate 1/6. He may not be extremist with kitchen table issues, but he certainly doesn't have the guts to stand up to the fascists in his party.

It would be nice if the people of Bucks County would wake up and realize what a scam the idea that this guy is a moderate is

Of course it shouldn't just be for yinzers, but I think there would be a good place to post this too.
Though I've always lived in Allegheny County, I fortunately have had the means to do an okay amount of traveling around the country, and there were few places I have thought I could feel at home in like here.
