Calvin Tucker is an RNC Delegate representing Pennsylvania’s 2nd Congressional District, which includes the University of Pennsylvania. He has been a part of a Pennsylvania RNC delegation that has strongly supported Donald Trump. 70 out of 71 delegates voted for Trump, even though 54 of the state’s delegates were unbound and could choose whatever candidate they wanted. I sat down with Tucker for an exclusive interview where we discussed the RNC, the division of the GOP, and Trump. Since Tucker is a black delegate and the PA 2nd Congressional District is over 60 percent black, we also discussed Trump’s miniscule support with black voters. Also, Tucker gave his take on why black voters should support Donald Trump.
Congressman Lou Barletta represents the Pennsylvania 11th Congressional District, which includes the cities of Hazelton, Carlisle, and Shippensburg. After serving as Mayor of Hazelton, he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2010. Since then, he has been one of the chief voices in the GOP on immigration. He was one of the earliest members of Congress to endorse Donald Trump in the GOP Primary, and The Washington Post named him one of Trump’s most trusted advisors in Congress. Opinion columnist Louis Capozzi sat down with Congressman Barletta at the RNC in Cleveland for an exclusive interview about Donald Trump.
