‘Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro slammed President Donald Trump for betraying his supporters in a fiery appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Thursday.
Shapiro, a Democrat who represents the pivotal swing state narrowly won by Trump in last November’s election, accused the Republican of only showing up to make promises to blue-collar communities when he needs their vote and neglecting their concerns since returning to power.
Asked about his own appeal in a deep purple state, the governor answered: “I think what they saw in me is someone who gives a damn about them, who treats them with respect – where they go to college, they go to the military, they go to a union apprenticeship program. They saw in me someone who can actually cut through it and solve their problems.
“And the difference between me and the president is – he shows up in those areas. He talks a good game. And then when he gets to govern, he does the exact opposite.”’

Governor Shapiro is correct.
In fact, Trump was never an advocate for those who voted for him – the dreadful, destructive legislation Trump just signed into law if proof of that, legislation harmful mostly to Trump voters in red states.
