COLUMBUS – Recent polls have shown Ohio is considered a toss-up between Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump so the Democrat’s campaign is sending in the “A” team.
At a rally at Capital University Tuesday, President Barack Obama (above) told a crowd of an estimate 5,800 voters that Trump has spent a lifetime “calling women pigs and dogs and slobs” and that voters need to pay attention to that.
He told them there would be “no break” during the final week of campaigning.
“All the progress we’ve made goes out the window if we don’t do our jobs in these next seven days,” he said.
Donald Trump Jr. attended a Youth for Trump Event on the OSU campus at almost the same time as the president’s appearance.
