Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden released a statement, saying he knew Trump would be targeting him during Tuesday’s rally.

"I know Donald Trump is going to use his stage tonight to bash me.

"But this isn’t about me. This is about the families across Pennsylvania and the country who are struggling. That’s why I have fought my entire career to make sure Americans have food on their table, a roof over their head, and a fair shot at the middle class.

“Donald Trump knows nothing about middle class values. He’s not here to make life less difficult for others, he’s here to make life better for himself. He’s not returning to Pennsylvania to fight for middle class families, he’s returning to fight for his own political survival."

The statement says that rebuilding a “stronger, more inclusive middle class,” is a key part of the campaign.

Trump is slated to give a speech to supporters at the Giant Center in Hershey at 7 p.m.
