Mike Johnson Contradicts Donald Trump Over Milwaukee Remarks
"Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has contradicted Donald Trump by suggesting the former president did not make negative comments about Milwaukee in a meeting.
Trump has been criticized after reports say he called the Wisconsin city "horrible" during a closed-door meeting with GOP lawmakers at the U.S. Capitol on Thursday.
The meeting was a precursor to the Republican National Convention, set to take place in Milwaukee on July 15 to 18. Trump is expected to be chosen as the party's nominee, and according to Jake Sherman, a founder of Punchbowl News, the Republican attacked the convention's location, saying, "Milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city."
Steven Cheung, Trump's spokesperson, denied the report on X, formerly Twitter. He wrote: "Wrong. Total bull****. He never said it like how it's been falsely characterized as. He was talking about how terrible crime and voter fraud are.""
