With Pennsylvania seen by many political experts as a key to Tuesday’s presidential election — and crucial to Vice President Kamala Harris’ road to 270 electoral votes — one of her biggest celebrity supporters crashed the Eagles game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday to lobby for votes.

Actor Robert De Niro, who has been one of Donald Trump’s harshest Hollywood critics, spent the pregame convincing tailgaters at Lincoln Financial Field to vote for Harris.
De Niro and former Secretary of State John Kerry hosted a get out the vote event in M Lot at The Linc.
Meanwhile, in Lititz, Pa., Trump gave a profane and conspiracy-laden speech two days before the presidential election, talking about reporters being shot and suggesting he “shouldn’t have left” the White House after his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden.
In remarks Sunday that bore no resemblance to his standard speech in the campaign’s closing stretch, the former president repeatedly cast doubt on the integrity of the vote and resurrected old grievances about being prosecuted after trying to overturn his defeat four years ago. Trump intensified his verbal attacks against a “grossly incompetent” national leadership and the American media, steering his Pennsylvania rally at one point on to the topic of violence against members of the press.
The GOP nominee for the White House noted the ballistic glass placed in front of him at events after a gunman’s assassination attempt in July at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and Trump talked about places where he saw openings in that protection.
“I have this piece of glass here,” he said. “But all we have really over here is the fake news. And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don’t mind that so much.”
