Biden confronted by hecklers shouting ‘go home’ during Pennsylvania visit: ‘You’re a loser’

President Biden received a hostile welcome from swing state voters in Pennsylvania during a visit to several small businesses to tout his Bidenomics economic plan.

“Go home, Joe!” one onlooker yelled as the Pennsylvania-raised president walked into a bike shop in Emmaus, Pennsylvania.

“You’re a loser!” another yelled.  “Loser!”

During the president’s visit, he swung by a running shoe store, bicycle shop and coffee house in the eastern Pennsylvania downtown.

“My name is Joe Biden and I work for the governor and the senator,” the president joked as he stepped into the Nowhere Coffee Co. along with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pennsylvania.

Biden’s pitch on Friday was that his Bidenomics has been successful in small-town America.

At a firefighter training center in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Biden pointed to recent consumer sentiment data and said that people are feeling better about the economy.

“If you notice, they’re feeling much better about how the economy is doing,” Biden said in response to a reporter’s question. “What we haven’t done is letting them know exactly who got it changed. … Everybody’s doing better and they believe it. They know it. And it’s just beginning to sink in.”
