Trump to host campaign rally Jan. 14 in downtown Milwaukee on the same night as the next Democratic debate

President Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally Jan. 14 in Milwaukee just two blocks from where the Democrats will hold their national convention in July, underscoring the importance Wisconsin holds for both sides in next year's election.

The 7 p.m. event at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Panther Arena will be staged the same night as the top-tier Democrats hold a prime-time debate in Des Moines, Iowa. It will focus on a campaign theme of "Promises Made, Promises Kept," according to Trump's campaign.

Trump narrowly won Wisconsin in 2016, becoming the first Republican to take the state since 1984. Critics argued Democrat Hillary Clinton's decision not to come to the Badger State after the April 2016 primary contributed to her defeat, and both parties have made the state a priority in 2020.


.....................................

Trump most recently was in Milwaukee in July as he sought to drum up support for the United States-Canada-Mexico trade deal. In April, he held a rally at the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon.

In 2018, Trump came to Wisconsin for the groundbreaking of a Foxconn Technology Group plant in Mount Pleasant in Racine County and for a Republican rally in Mosinee in central Wisconsin.

This campaign season, Democrats have been coming to Wisconsin earlier than they usually do in part because they want to show voters they're not taking the state for granted. The Democrats are sending a similar message by hosting their convention this summer at Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum.............................................

1. MAGAts who'd go to the rally wouldn't watch the Dem debate anyhow,

and nobody but MAGAts are even interested in his mini-Nuremberg rallies. Even Fox doesn't cover entire rallies any more.

2. Most of the MAGATS

Will come from the racist white flight counties around milwaukee.

6. My thoughts as well

I'm curious as to how many will put aside their anxiety and fears to venture to downtown Milwaukee.

3. Oakland and North

I work not to far away from UWM. I wonder how the traitor is going to make it hard for me to get home.

4. The arena is on Wisconsin Avenue in the heart of downtown Milwaukee

You should be fine.

5. Oh true
