President Biden received a rude reception from swing state voters who mercilessly mocked him during a Friday visit to Pennsylvania.
The 81-year-old commander-in-chief was greeted with shouts of “Go home, Joe!” and “You’re a loser!” by a resident of an Allentown-area home when he walked into a bike shop, according to the pool report.
Hours later, protesters opposing Biden’s support of Israel’s attack on Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip vowed that he would pay the price at the ballot box in November.
“We’ll remember in November,” the group chanted near a fire training center – also adding, “No vote for massacring Joe.”
The president made the trip without delivering a prepared speech ahead of a weekend retreat at Camp David in Maryland.

While he was away, fence contractors were spotted near the White House preparing for a massive anti-Israel protest on Saturday — after a large group of activists pushed down the executive mansion fence in November and defaced them with red handprints and anti-Biden graffiti.
