Harrisburg, PA

(Pennsylvania German: Harrisbarig) is the capital city of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania and the county seat of Dauphin County. With a population of 49,673, it is the tenth-largest city in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania.

Harrisburg's site is thought to have been inhabited by Native Americans as early as 3000 BC. The first European contact with Native Americans in Pennsylvania was made by the Englishman, Captain John Smith, who journeyed from Virginia here in 1608 and visited with the local tribe. In 1719, In 1785, John Harris, Jr. made plans to lay out a town on his father's land, which he named Harrisburg. In the spring of 1785, the town was formally surveyed by William Maclay, who was a son-in-law of John Harris, Sr. In 1791, Harrisburg became incorporated and was named the Pennsylvania state capital in October 1812, and has been since.

The last several stops have yelled BUILD That Wall. The wall is the main focus.

DONALD really needs to focus on immigration and THE WALL!

When Donald tells you he’s going to back the military, HE means it!
The military should have the best healthcare on earth.

I’ve never heard of Wharton being evacuated before, although that doesn’t mean much. Wharton is about an hour and a half from me...but, this is the first time I ever recall Wharton being evacuated....in all the many years I’ve lived in this area.
