Really interesting discussion about PA. I’m from Steel Country, North/Midwest PA and it’s not uncommon to see Biden signs in only the rich neighborhoods of cities. I’m an independent but the way Trump has taken the small towns across PA is unbelievable, it was not this uniform in 2012,2016, or 2020. From my experience, I think you are spot on that PA does not care about identity politics as a whole. We’ve seen whole towns come and go, booming industries abandon their workers, and a strange influx in immigration. We care about our livelihoods bc we have seen how quickly it can change, especially in the wake of the Great Recession that gutted small towns here.
Really liked the analysis of PA. Would like to hear more of that with other communities. Doesn’t have to be related to political polling either. Good job 👍
The May 1962 Centralia Anthracite fire started when a out crop of Anthracite lit on fire when the dump was set on fire not from fire going down a air shaft for the mine
I'm looking forward to watching your new format! Looks awesome after a few minutes. Getting after it!
We follow you into battle Peter 🤝
Pennsylvania is a great state!

Thank you for listening. I think your point here is spot on - the tectonic plates have shifted so much that social issues feel small to voters

Biden moved away from Scranton PA when he was 7 years old moved to Delaware so his bin there for 74 years wouldn't really call him a Pennsylvanian
