Milwaukee may be the host city for the Republican National Convention (RNC), but Donald Trump recently called it a "horrible city." This prompted his allies to scramble and spin the story, especially as Wisconsin is a key swing state that the convicted felon must win to become president again.

Donald Trump recently visited Capitol Hill on Thursday, the first time since he instigated the January 6 Capitol Insurrection. He was there to supposedly discuss strategy with Congressional Republican leaders but as expected, he went off on his usual tangents, one of which he complained about where the RNC is being held.

"Milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city," Trump told House Republicans, sending many of them scrambling to respond to his comments. House Republicans cannot get their stories straight, even members from Wisconsin who offered different explanations to cover for the Republican frontrunner.

One Wisconsin Republican reportedly claimed that the whole thing never happened, but this was immediately disproven after three others stated the convicted felon former president definitely said that. Wisconsin GOP Rep. Glenn Grothman tried to spin it as Trump being concerned about the election in Milwaukee, while another tried to spin it as Trump being concerned about the city's crime rate. Nonetheless, they all agreed Trump did call the RNC host city "horrible" despite their excuses.

As Yahoo! News pointed out, "Milwaukee is very often criticized by the rural and suburban politicians in the rest of the state, who use racist dog whistles, yell "socialism," or rely on more overt bigotry" despite the crime rate dropping in the city. The state also has a sizable Black population that usually votes blue.

Nancy Pelosi Condemns Donald Trump's Return to the Capitol

While many House Republicans seem like they have forgotten they were almost killed by a pro-Trump mob back on January 6, 2021, Democrats have not, including former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was one of the insurrectionists' main targets.

"Today, the instigator of an insurrection is returning to the scene of the crime," she lamented. "January 6 was a crime against the Capitol, that saw Nazi and Confederate flags flying under the dome that Lincoln built."

"It was a crime against the constitution and its peaceful transfer of power in a desperate attempt to cling to power, she added. "And it was a crime against members, heroic police officers and staff, that resulted in death, injury, and trauma that endure to this day."

George Conway Predicts Republicans' Support for Donald Trump Would Soon Drop

Right now, Republicans are banking on the fanatical support for Donald Trump to get themselves reelected as many of them, including ones who have previously slammed him or complained about almost getting killed during the January 6 insurrection, have bent the knee. However, one conservative lawyer thinks that they would soon turn their backs on him again.

George Conway, a prominent Republican and conservative lawyer, stated that Trump's porn star hush money trial "drew attention away from" the former president as he was forced to stay in New York and not go on all those political rallies. This helped Trump as people were not able to see the craziness.

It's why "the race seems closer than I think it ultimately will be," Conway added, saying that "people have forgotten about Trump," his personality and "the reasons they didn't like him."

The Republican lawyer stated that the more average Americans see Trump again, the more they will remember the circus that was his presidency.

"And one of the disadvantages of the most recent trial is it delayed the moment where they really, really see him for real, and I think that's going to change with the debate and the conventions," Conway noted.
