President Trump held a campaign rally in Indiana, Pennsylvania on Monday at a college arena located an hour east of Pittsburgh that was well attended by enthusiastic students and other young people.
The rally was held at the 6,000 seat Ed Fry Arena at the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex on the campus of Indiana University of Pennsylvania. The arena was filled to capacity with about a thousand supporters in the overflow area outside.
Trump had already made two stops in western Pennsylvania on Monday, holding a listening session with farmers and then visiting a grocery store where he helped a family pay for their groceries. Reporter Salena Zito, who spent the day with Trump, reported Trump was greeted by supporters all along the route as his motorcade drove over 100 miles along country roads and the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

The Trump campaign is working hard to earn votes in the commonwealth. A Trump Force 47 volunteer recruiting booth was stationed at the entrance to the arena:

President Trump took the stage about an hour after the scheduled start time of 7 p.m. The crowd went wild with cheers of USA! USA! (Note: A bank of red stage lights overhead gave Trump a colorful hue.)

President Trump: “Kamala Harris!”
“You’re fired!”

Trump returns to Pennsylvania on Sunday with a rally in Erie.
The following weekend on October 5, Trump will hold a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania at the site of the July 13 assassination attempt that wounded him in his right ear, killed supporter Corey Comperatore and grievously wounded two supporters, David Dutch and James Copenhaver.
Trump is holding two events in Michigan on this Friday and one in Wisconsin on Saturday.
