How Predictable -- Milwaukee

The Democrats have chosen Milwaukee as the site for their convention in 2020.  It's just so predictable.  There were three "finalists" with Milwaukee just being one of the three.  When I first heard the list, I asked myself whether or not the Democrats could be so predictable and so hung up on symbolism that they would choose Milwaukee to right the mistake by Hillary Clinton of never visiting Wisconsin.  I pondered that question and concluded that even the Democrats would realize that holding their convention in Milwaukee wouldn't change votes in November.  After all, the Dems in 2016 held their convention in Philadelphia, and Trump won that state.  But a Milwaukee convention would be a symbolic act, and those are things that the Democrats think are more important than anything else.

Sure enough, the Dems have picked Milwaukee. 

I think we should have some fun with this, though.  Let's tell everyone that the Democrats chose Milwaukee in honor of the 50th anniversary this week of Golda Meir becoming the first woman prime minister of Israel.  Meir was raised in Milwaukee before she moved to Israel.  That rumor will drive Democrats like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib crazy.
