Summary
Joe Biden and his Democratic allies pounced on the reported remark. Several congressmen who support Trump said he was referring to crime and voter fraud. Milwaukee is hosting the Republican National Convention starting July 15. Trump is scheduled to be in Racine, Wisconsin, for a campaign rally on Tuesday.
Milwaukee was supposed to host the 2020 Democratic National Convention, but that was moved almost entirely online because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Local and statewide Democratic leaders, including Gov. Tony Evers, worked with Republicans to land the convention this summer. Trump is scheduled to be sentenced in New York on July 11, days before the convention opens.
