Trump targets Dem senator as ‘Sleepin’ Bob’
President Trump introduced a new nickname for Sen. Bob Casey Jr. (D-Pa.) during a rally Thursday night: “Sleepin’ Bob Casey.”
“So Bob Casey, boy isn’t that boring … I’ll start falling asleep,” Trump said at the rally in Casey’s home state.
“Don’t fall asleep as we talk about Sleepin’ Bob,” Trump said, appearing to have come up with the nickname in the moment.
“Sleepin’ Bob, ha! That’s it, Sleepin’ Bob,” he said.

{mosads}Trump is in the state rallying for Rep. Lou Barletta (R-Pa.), who is challenging Casey for his Senate seat.
The president railed against Casey throughout the rally, claiming that the senator wanted “open borders” and to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Casey has not said that he is in favor of abolishing ICE, which has become a rallying cry among some Democrats in recent weeks.
