WALL – The veteran Democratic Party leader here, U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone (D-6) stirred the crowd here in the hall of IBEW Local 400 when he denounced President Donald J. Trump.

” He’s corrupt,” said the mild-mannered Pallone, to hand claps.

He acknowledged that it was tough talk.

“But it’s the truth,” said Pallone, speaking after the committee putting his name in nomination.

“In many ways, he’s disgraced the presidency,” the congressman added.

Pallone said Trump is actively trying to divide the country, which is weakening America.
