Trump was in Oaks, PA. That's a suburb less than 20 miles from Philadelphia, which would not seem to be Trump territory, but when a state is that swingy, you go wherever you can go. Anyhow, let's start with the somewhat minor, but very Freudian, slip of the tongue that Trump issued forth with. Urging his people to get their ballots cast, he said he hopes "everybody gets out on January 5th." This was part of a nearly un-parseable word salad, although it was nonetheless clear that he meant November 5th. That said, this is dangerously close to saying he hopes that everyone gets out on January 6th, maybe for a little bit of insurrection. As we said, Freudian slip, at least from where we sit.
