President Trump’s leading a rally tonight in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania in support of Republican Senate candidate Lou Barletta, and it looks like a big crowd is already there:

NBC News’ White House correspondent Kelly O’Donnell spotted something at the Wilkes-Barre rally that carried over from a Tuesday night event in Tampa:
Unfortunate. Two guys leading chants against media 2 and half hours before rally. Campaign requires media be “escorted” to work area. Most of us have been through more security background screening than attendees. pic.twitter.com/r4ie8xdb3e

Will CNN’s Jim Acosta be there?
