President Trump offered some kind words for Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Pa., and his bid to unseat Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., in 2018, saying that the Republican congressman is "going to win big" in the race.

Trump made the remarks while opening up an event in Harrisburg, Pa., early Wednesday evening on tax reform.

Is this good or bad?

It would be good to see a pseudo-Dino get the ax. Casey is not like his father, and he ought to know better.

I don’t know a lot about Barletta other than that he has been great on immigration issues. Therefore, I’m 101% for him.

Even a RINO is better than a dimoKKKRAT. Not saying Lou is because I do not know the man.

Barletta is the kind of Senator we need.
He has been on the side of the citizens and the rule of law since he was mayor of Hazelton.

Barletta may have been THE first member of Congress to endorse Trump in the 2016 primaries. He was probably a big reason why Trump won PA.

That kind of thinking got us where we are today, a Republican Senate full of RINOs.

Me too! This is the first challenger I heard of in this race. You know, Casey is an idiot if you every heard him talk. When Casey was first running I thought, once he debates he will lose. Well he never had to debate, all those old dems voted for him because of his dad. Lou would be a great addition. Although something happens when they drink that swamp water.

Barletta has been against the illegal alien invasion since the early 2000’s.

Of course it’s good!

Casey will lose as long as the Republican has a pulse and personality

I too live in PA and can’t wait to vote for Barletta. Casey only represents Dims, ignores all Republicans. I stopped calling his office, gets my blood pressure up.

Casey is vulnerable. He beat Santorum, the incumbent, by 17% in 2006. He won re-election in 2012 by only 9% despite (1) Obama’s coattails and (2) being the incumbent.

Bob Casey Junior IS everything wrong about politics. Career politician. Swamp denizen. Represents DC. Utterly useless. Empty suit.

If Trump unleashes Bannon in PA and they go big against Casey they can win.
