Former President Trump spent his final full day of campaigning Monday claiming that only he can save America from an apocalyptic future dominated by out-of-control government, a “invasion” of criminal immigrants, and amoral liberals — dark foreboding messages similar to those that have propelled the Republican Party’s decade on the national stage. Vice President Kamala Harris concluded her presidential campaign with a series of rallies in which she promised to turn the page and put the United States on a more stable and hopeful path, pledging not to seek revenge but to “spend every day working on my to-do list on your behalf.”

While the two presidential candidates’ themes contrasted drastically, they virtually aligned physically, with both spending much of Monday in Pennsylvania, a state viewed as essential by both sides in achieving an electoral college victory. The Keystone State gives the winner more electoral votes — 19 — than any of the other states that are hotly contested this year. Polls show Pennsylvania in an apparent dead heat, with the six other battlegrounds — Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada — still too close to call before voting ends on Tuesday. In a late afternoon rally at an arena in Reading, Trump waxed nostalgic about his time on the national stage, while continuing to rage against the establishment he accused of colluding.

“For the past nine years, we’ve been fighting the most sinister and corrupt forces on Earth,” he told the audience. “With your vote in this election, you may demonstrate once and for all that this country does not belong to them. This country belongs to you.”
