Trump to pay visit to closely divided Pennsylvania in return to campaigning

LOWER MACUNGIE TOWNSHIP, Pennsylvania, June 23 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump returns to the campaign trail for the first time in two weeks on ‌Tuesday, visiting politically divided Pennsylvania to deliver a pitch about the revival of the U.S. Rust Belt to voters feeling inflation’s bite.

Trump is due to visit a Mack Trucks assembly plant owned by Sweden's Volvo Group (VOLVb.ST), in Lower Macungie Township, Pennsylvania, where he'll shift gears from Iran ​and pitch his jobs-and-reindustrialization agenda to factory workers who formed the base of his "Make America Great Again" ​political movement.

The U.S. president's Republican Party is seeking to retain control of Congress in November's ⁠midterm elections.

A nearly four-month U.S.-Israeli war with Iran has complicated Trump's economic message, driving consumer costs up at ​the fastest rate in three years. The U.S. and Iran are negotiating a potential peace deal in the conflict.

and tell us not to sell our homes because he is going to single-handedly revive the American steel industry (Like he did 10 years ago). What a joke.
