His tour of an ammunition plant with Gov. Josh Shapiro and two other Democratic leaders up for reelection in tow had all the markings of a campaign event. Pennsylvania is home to more than 150,000 Ukrainians and Ukrainian Americans, the second-largest number of any state.

It’s all part of a major sales pitch for continued support in Ukraine’s war against Russia. On Thursday, he also had a photo-op and meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris surrounded by the imagery and trappings of the White House.
