Former President Donald Trump has scheduled a rally in support of Tim Michels in Waukesha. The “Save America Rally” will be held at the Waukesha County Fairgrounds on August 5th, just four days before the gubernatorial primary election. Michels said that he was “looking forward to welcoming President Trump back to Wisconsin, and I’m honored to have his support in this election.” Michels had said in June that Trump had not committed to campaigning for him in Wisconsin, saying that Trump will “make up his own mind.”
Trump will also be visiting Milwaukee on August 20th as part of his “American Freedom Tour.” Other scheduled speakers are Donald Trump Jr., former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former Fox News commentator Kimberly Guilfoyle, and political commentator Dinesh D’Souza.
U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) said that, while he hopes that “…President Trump enjoys his time in our state,” he will not be attending since Michels will be attending and he does not “endorse candidates in contested primaries.”
