However, the former president began by targeting the president over his handling of issues overseas, particularly pointing to the Iranian attack on Israel that occurred just hours before Trump took the stage. <\/p>\n<figure><figcaption>Former President Donald Trump greets attendees during a campaign event in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, April 13, 2024.

Trump then reiterated his challenge to debate Biden, claiming the president \u201ccan\u2019t put two sentences together. He can\u2019t find the stairs or a platform to walk off after he makes about a two-minute speech.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s visit to the state comes less than two weeks before Pennsylvania will hold its primary election on April 23. Pennsylvania has become a crucial battleground state for November after Trump won the state in 2016 before it flipped back to Biden in 2020. <\/p>\n<p>The increased focus on Pennsylvania sets the stage for what is likely to be a bitter election, which is already appearing to result in personal attacks between the two. Those attacks especially came into view during Trump\u2019s rally, who decried Biden as a \u201cstupid person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t get it because he can\u2019t speak, he can\u2019t walk,\u201d Trump said. <\/p>\n<p>Biden has also had his fair share of personal attacks against the former president, often calling Trump a \u201cthreat to democracy,\u201d referring to his claims that the 2020 election was rigged in Biden\u2019s favor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Biden defeated Trump by less than 2 percentage points in Pennsylvania in 2020, and recent polling indicates the state will once again be razor-thin come November. Biden is also expected to travel to the state next week, making stops in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. <\/p>\n<p>The state is also home of a crucial Senate race, which could determine which party will win the majority of the upper chamber next year. That race will be determined in the state\u2019s primary later this month, although it is expected to be between incumbent Bob Casey (D-PA) and Republican candidate Dave McCormick, whom Trump endorsed during the Saturday rally. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, Former President Donald Trump quickly targeted President Joe Biden at a campaign rally in the key battleground state.
