David McCormick at the Aspen Ideas Festival this past week: “The America [Pennsylvania voters have] experienced is very different than the America most of the people in this room experience, myself included”
PENNSYLVANIA — Last week, hedge fund executive David McCormick flew to the Aspen Ideas Festival to sell copies of his book and rub elbows with his Wall Street friends and global elites. During his 50-minute remarks while being interviewed, McCormick admitted he can’t relate to the problems of most Pennsylvanians, and said his wife and children aren’t supportive of his campaigns.
While McCormick was socializing with billionaires, Sen. Bob Casey gathered with labor leaders in Pittsburgh to lay out his agenda to stand up to China, support workers, and boost Pennsylvania manufacturing.
