President Trump attacked Pennsylvania Rep. Conor Lamb (D) in a pair of tweets Saturday morning that endorsed Lamb's opponent, Rep. Keith Rothfus (R-Pa.), in the battle for the state's newly drawn 17th District.
Trump tweeted his support for Rothfus on Saturday as Vice President Pence headed to the state to campaign for Rothfus. He also resurfaced a nickname for Lamb, "Lamb the Sham."
The two congressmen are dueling for the newly drawn district, currently held by Rep. Matt Cartwright (D), who himself was redistricted to Pennsylvania's 8th District.
".@VP Pence is heading to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where we have both strongly endorsed one of the finest men around, Congressman Keith @RothfusForPA.

Keith is strong on borders and tough on crime — and loves cutting taxes! #MAGA" Trump tweeted.

The Hill is written by idiots, in case we didn’t already know that.
Cartwright’s district is clear across the state and nowhere near the Pittsburgh area where Lambykins and Rothfus are competing.
It turned out that his entire service in the USMC was 14 months as a desk jockey in Okinawa working on legal matters from whence he was seamlessly transferred to the U.S. Attorney's office in Pittsburgh to accept an ObaMao appointment.
Who else in the USMC gets a deal like that? His opponent wouldn't even point that out.
