Trump, speaking in one of the crucial swing states he won from the Democratic Party in 2016, joked he will serve five terms as US president.

He also slammed Fox News for broadcasting a Q&A with Democratic candidate Pete Buttigieg on Sunday, and said Pennsylvania-born Joe Biden had abandoned the state for neighboring Delaware.

"I guess he was born here, but he left you folks," Trump said of Biden. "He left you for another state. Remember that please."

Trump also used the speech to champion Fred Keller, the Republican candidate for a vacant congressional seat in Pennsylvania.

Keller and Democratic Party candidate Marc Friedenberg go head-to-head in an election on Tuesday to fill the vacant seat left by Rep. Tom Marino after he resigned in January. Marino was a vocal Trump supporter, and helped spearhead his campaign in the state in 2016.
