“Rob Bresnahan campaigned on cleaning up Washington, but has instead become the poster-child of D.C. corruption. Bresnahan’s prolific stock trading while in office is the exact kind of behavior Trump railed against when he campaigned on draining swamp – and it will be a major reason why Northeastern Pennsylvanians fire him next November.”
