Related: About this forumWP Morning Mix: Trump says Biden 'deserted' Pennsylvania. In Scranton, he's a 'hometown boy.'

Remember those a-holes who used to claim that Hillary had no connections to Chicago (where she grew up) and Ohio (where she stayed with her grandparents?)
Lots of people have connections to multiple places, it's one of the chief charms of this great country.
