Kimmel and 'The Daily Show' Pick Up on Trump's 'Horrible' Milwaukee Comment
Former President Donald Trump's “horrible” view of Milwaukee drew some pointed jabs Thursday from late-night TV comedians.
Earlier Thursday, Trump, during a meeting with House Republicans in Washington, reportedly told them: “Milwaukee, where we have our convention, is a horrible city.” The comment, cited in a Punchbowl News article, was dismissed by a Trump spokesperson on X as “falsely characterized,” saying the former president was talking about crime and election procedures in Milwaukee. (Members of the Wisconsin delegation also took issue with the report, but disagreed on the topic Trump addressed.)
Thursday night on Comedy Central's “The Daily Show,” comedian and news anchor Jordan Keppler made it clear that Trump's comments seemed a little personal.
With the obligatory photo of the Milwaukee skyline seen from the lake as a backdrop, Keppler looked appalled after hearing Trump's horrible comment about the city.
Hey! I may not be from Wisconsin, but I'm from Michigan, the Kalamazoo native said with mock indignation. And let me just tell you, don't mess with the Midwest, buddy. We will politely ask you to stop and then thank you in advance and that is a threat.

Keppler continues: Honestly, though, how does Trump not like Milwaukee? The two main food groups are sausage and cheese. A salad simply means that the sausage contains sauerkraut.
Keppler's take is at 17:00 in the clip below.
On ABC's “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Kimmel, who is not shy about mocking Trump, discussed the former president's “horrible” comment about the RNC host city.
You know, they're holding the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, and this morning, Trump said, Milwaukee is a horrible city, Kimmel said. The good news is he might not have to go to Milwaukee. His campaign anticipates the possibility that he will then be in prison or under home confinement.
In fact, RNC Chairman Michael Whatley said, “By synthesizing technological innovation and artistic vision, our dynamic stage design will be at the center of a historic Republican National Convention,” which is a fancy way of saying: “We have a big television so the president and his anklet can zoom in from the restrooms at Mar-a-Lago.
(You can see the comment in Kimmel's monologue, at 5:28 in the clip below.)
Whatley made the comment cited by Kimmel last week. But Whatley also said during a news conference at Fiserv Forum on June 5 that he expects Trump to travel to Milwaukee in person to accept the nomination.
“If we have to make contingency plans, we will,” Whatley said.
