Second Lady Karen Pence came to the Twin Cities ahead of Trump with a softer sell than the president is likely to use at a Thursday rally.
ST. PAUL, Minn. ― President Donald Trump’s Wednesday featured explanations for his failure to protect Kurdish allies in Syria, new questions about an impeachment inquiry centered on his dealings with Ukraine and, to cap it off, fresh accusations of sexual misconduct.“The president has empowered women like no other,” said Second Lady Karen Pence, explaining that she understood a lot of women might be “on the fence” about voting for Trump next year.
Nancy Vergin, 66, was among the 250 or so women who came out to hear the trio at a meeting room at a train and bus depot in St. Paul. His campaign has been looking for states it might win in 2020 that failed to swing his way in 2016, particularly in the event Trump loses Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, three states that gave him the presidency with a combined 77,744-vote margin.
And Lara Trump said their best argument was probably what the president’s tenure has already done for women. “If you think that things are going better for you than they were, that’s all you need to know.”
