In a fiery closing speech to voters in Philadelphia at a rally for the Democrats, former President Barack Obama charged the audience to get back to the basics “it’s about the fundamental values.” Values of “honesty, fairness, opportunity, hard work….”
Obama continued in his rally cry for the democratic candidates for the upcoming midterm elections that it’s the “values enshrined in our founding documents a few miles from here, a clarion call for freedom and equality that Phillie’s own liberty bell represents, that’s what America stands for, that’s who we are, so if you’re anxious and frustrated right now, don’t complain, don’t mope, don’t tune out, get off your couch….” Obama ended his speech to the audience to get up and vote and not be complacent.
Former President Donald Trump also campaigned for the Republican candidates in this swing state where he hinted at a possible comeback in 2024 saying in a “very, very, very short period of time” his supporters would be “so happy.”
