ALLENTOWN, Pennsylvania — The late afternoon here in the Lehigh Valley was abuzz with an anticipation by some in the media and some residents that massive protests might converge outside the PPL Center where former President Donald Trump would be holding a rally. The protests were expected because an insult-specialist comedian called Puerto Rico a pile of garbage during his warmup act ahead of Trump’s mega-event in Madison Square Garden last Sunday.
Earlier in the day, Allentown Mayor Matt Tuerk was joined by Martin Sheen, an actor who played a president on television, along with City Council President Cynthia Mota and state Reps. Josh Siegel and Mike Schlossberg to stump for Harris and Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA).
