Ex-union electrician and retired veteran Tony Milidantri, disillusioned with the Democratic Party he once backed, has pledged his vote to former President Trump in the hopes that President Biden will lose in November.
“To see everyone turning against him [Trump], what is happening to him?” This is ridiculous. “You’d have to be blind not to see what they’re doing, and the Democrats get away with everything,” he said Wednesday on “Fox & Friends First.”
“They could do whatever they want, say whatever they want.”
Milidantri feels Trump has the “formula” to “bring the country back in line” and expects that others in Pennsylvania, a battleground state, will agree when they vote.
“I hope not,” he answered when asked if he thought Biden would win the state again. “I pray to God he doesn’t.”
On Wednesday, Biden will visit Pittsburgh’s steelworkers to express his support for them and to push for higher taxes on Chinese steel imports.
Polls show the nominees knotted in key battleground states, including Pennsylvania, with Trump holding a tiny advantage over Biden in a recent Fox News poll.
This November, the state could be one of the most important. In Milidantri’s circles, however, the choice is apparent.
“I can’t use that language on the air,” he remarked when asked what his pals had said about Biden.
“It’s pathetic to witness a man who they can’t impeach because he’s incapable of doing so, but who can manage our country. There is something wrong here.” There’s definitely something wrong,” he added.
Milidantri stated that his fellow retired warriors are tired of seeing the country decline and that he believes “we are turning into a third-world country.”
Other Pennsylvanians are unhappy with the country’s direction, according to interviews conducted by Fox News Digital in Schnecksville following former President Trump’s visit to the area on Saturday.
“Just staying in business is costing us a lot of money. From A to Z, we didn’t have this four years ago,” said Al Anderson, a local business owner, adding, “Of course, Bidenomics is nothing but printing money and producing inflation.”
“Things were just a little easier for businessowners,” he claimed. “The younger generation is noticeably spending more money than my generation ever did.”
Biden and Trump are currently competing for votes in other swing states such as Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Nevada, Michigan, and Virginia, as well as Pennsylvania.
According to Pennsylvania State Sen. Jarrett Coleman, a Republican from the area, voters are less enthusiastic under Biden’s leadership than under Trump’s.
“President Biden was recently in Lehigh County touting Bidenomics. The funny thing about Bidenomics is that if it were working, the president wouldn’t have to travel around the country convincing people it’s working,” he went on to say.
