former President Donald Trump trashed Milwaukee, the site of the looming Republican National Convention, as a "horrible city"

Question: Is Milwaukee a Democrat run city?

If so, then Trump will get a standing ovation for trashing Milwaukee when he's giving his acceptance speech in Milwaukee.

He might even be able to dispatch his Brownshirts to kidnap the Mayor, Gretchen Widmer style.

Trump trashes someone and or something every day.

Psychologically speaking, it is an actual case of projecting his self hate outwards; somewhere deep inside his Dark Triad personality*, he knows what a vile, despicable excuse for a human being he really is.

Trump is now attacking Milwaukee as a horrible place to hold the Republican National Convention. I suspect part of this stems from the fact that several major businesses associated with Wisconsin have refused to sponsor the convention, choosing not to donate money to the RNC to help cover their costs. The company at the top of that list is Kohl's, who's headquartered in Wisconsin, but who has refused to even consider getting involved in the convention. And now there's people demanding that Republicans boycott Kohl's over their refusal to be a sponsor at this years convention.

When it comes to finding a large city to host the RNC convention, according to what Republicans have said about these same cities, it might be getting harder and harder to find one where the locals would be supportive. And as for what some might assume to be somewhere in a friendly state, take a look at Texas. From what Texas Republicans have said over the last couple of elections, I doubt that Houston will be on their list anytime soon. If their vilification of large urban areas continue, you may see future RNC conventions being held in places like Boise or Anchorage.

Like most Democrat run cities Milwaukee is full of crime and corruption. Actually 3rd most crime in USA. That is what Trump said and he as usual is correct and the Democrats and their media lie. Democrats always lie instead of discussing policy and making the USA better. Democrats gave us a fool instead of a POTUS. I now recognize the Marxist sleaze that runs leftwing politics and I admit I was once a contributing Democrat until I woke up. No more!

It makes more sense for the daughter-boning sack of Putin's ------ to hold the repug convention at an Aryan Brotherhood compound.

I bet it won't cost him a single vote, as it is clear that today's Republican Party is about hate, the in your face, being as ugly as possible, showing domination over someone else, kind of hate.
He said insanely ignorant things about McCain, and still got elected.

The R's should move their convention to Mar a Lago.
They could probably get some very special rental rates

Trump did trash Milkwalkie, but why he trashed it depends on who you ask, everything from crime rates to lack of election integrity (explanations at link):

Bonchie
@bonchieredstate
The problem is that that's like 5 different explanations ranging from he didn't say it to he did say it but he meant something else.

It'd be better if Republicans got on the same page before commenting to the press.

I honestly womder if you realise that you sound like an utter buffoon? Where do you get all this Marxist nonsense? Democrats didn't oppose the Soviet Union during the Cold War? Biden just put a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs. He and the other members of the G7 pledge 50 billion for Ukraine. So really, what is all this Msrxist nonsense? Are Democrats sexretly ending Capitalism in the U.S.??? Corporate America is reporting record profits this year!

Republicans in Panic Mode After Trump Trashes Milwaukee

Donald Trump attacked Milwaukee in a meeting with Republicans on the Hill"and now Republicans are desperately trying to cover for him.

Once he's settled in with his parole officer, I am certain he will discover that Milwaukee is a wonderful, vibrant and welcoming city full of diverse neighborhoods and a thriving business community. https://t.co/KBQY3GL9Te

The USSR was not communist. It was at best a failed attempt at communism, but it was in fact simply a dictatorship and has been since Stalin perverted the ideals of communism.

China is a fascist dictatorship, it's not even remotely communist.

Ukraine has nothing to do with Marxism, it's a democracy that's been invaded by a dictatorial oligarchy. There's certainly nothing communist about modern Russia.

The Democratic party is unfortunately a center-right party. The US does not have a leftist party, it's something that is sorely lacking here.

I think I figured out why Trump is upset about the location. He told organizers he wanted the convention in that city with all the snow that starts with an M and had something to do with cow's but he couldn't remember it's name. They incorrectly assumed he meant Milwaukee when he was talking about Moscow.

Things you'll never hear about at the upcoming Milwaukee GOP Convention:

Donald Trump is simply that guy from a second-rate reality show who served a single term in office during which his sole accomplishment was cutting taxes for billionaires.

Or while he was in the WH, Trump drove the nation into a recession, hit the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression, lost millions of jobs, bungled a pandemic that killed over a million Americans, and tried to overturn the outcome of the 2020 election, violently, and was twice impeached for egretious acts.

Trump wasn't a good president by any measure. Inheriting a booming economy from Obama (who got not help from Republicans) doesn't count.

Crime is high in Milwaukee because of all the illegals flowing over Wisconsin's open border to the South.

This is also what's happening in San Diego, home to the most popular border crossings on the planet. We natives in San Diego are over run with illegals. They taking all our jobs, all our affordable housing, and committing so much crime. It's an absolute hell hole in San Diego right now, even though San Diego is ALSO one of the top 10 most unaffordable destinations on the planet.

If you can't sense the sarcasm in this post, you just might be a MAGAt.

Swallow it.

When I read this headline, I assumed that Trump was getting his licks in early, based on something his internal pollsters told him about Wisconsin leaning left toward Biden.

Trump is so insecure, one of his schticks is to attack others first if he thinks they're going to attack him.

I don't know how much money the RNC has already spent on this shindig but if Trump is going to get booed or bombarded with negative TV coverage, they might want to kick the 757 out of its hanger at Palm Beach International and hold their convention there, for free.

It still wouldn't be free. Trump would charge them for moving the plane and rent for the use of the hanger, at about seven or eight times the going rate for other venues.
