came to an end. >> The state Republican Party is
riding high after the big event in Milwaukee. Its chairman,
Brian Schimming, is here, and you do look like a pretty happy
guy. A little exhausted. >> Yeah, I'm a little exhausted.
But I have to tell you, I'm so proud of Milwaukee. I'm so proud
of the state of Wisconsin, we were able to pull off an
excellent, four day convention. Right here in Wisconsin. And as
you know, Fred, I'm a native here. I'm a homer. So I wanted
this to be good for the state, for the city of Milwaukee. And
it was the security considerations were they were
just security was great. The cooperation between the city and
the county, and of course, all the law enforcement agencies,
the chamber, the visitor's bureau, just fabulous. So I'm
just so excited. And I had people after the RNC meeting
this morning from other states, big, you know, convention states
like Chicago and LA and Atlanta, whatever, coming up and saying
this was the best convention they'd ever been to. So I'm so
proud of Wisconsin this morning. >> Yeah, super high praise. So a
month ago, could you ever have foreseen everything that has
happened in this race for president?
conference yesterday that they'll be writing books, not
about the campaign, but the last three weeks, you know, alone,
much less the whole campaign, of course, the tragedy of the
shooting in Pennsylvania, which which really pulls at you, you
know, I mean, you have people that were there to support a
candidate. It's not a partisan thing. It's people who came out
to this rally. So the tragedy of that rally and then, also
obviously the debate were within 90 minutes a, a political party,
my friendly adversaries on the other side, the Democrats and
their candidate completely collapsed within 90 minutes. I'm
not sure I can think of a parallel to this, in recent
history. Anyway so the Democratic Party and Joe Biden
went from the kind of confidence that Joe Biden would be the
candidate to the calamity of that debate, to the crisis they
now sit in all within a couple of weeks. I honestly, I can't
think of another time in recent history where so much was packed
into so little time, and then to top it off, for us, having a
successful, convention, I think by any account, it's really,
it's will be talking about it for years.
Wisconsin congressman, Democrat it's time to pass the torch?
>> Well, what I would say to my friend Mark Pocan is, where have
you been, I think the truth of the matter is, my adversaries on
the other side of the aisle have known all of this about Joe
Biden for a very, very long tim. And, he's incapable of being
their candidate's candidate. capable of being president right
now. And I don't make that, I have relatives of my family who
have memory and other issues, so I don't make that charge lightl,
I think you have an incapable candidate and an incapable
president. Right now. And the dilemma that that the Democrats
find themselves in here is that we're in July of the election
year. We're not in July of last year. We're in July of this yea.
And the challenge that they face right now is we walk out of this
convention unified and they're spending the weekend not knowing
what they're going to do next. Historically, it's an amazing
moment. reaction to, say, Vice President
Kamala Harris at the top of the ticket?
>> Right. So I have been saying about the vice presidential
potential vice presidential That, if people see me walking
down the streets of Wisconsin with a folding table, it's
because I'm going to sell tickets to that debate. And so I
think that would be the same case, no matter where she is on
the ticket. So here's the Democrats dilemma. They have a
four year president who, you know, won every primary. And
caucus, is a sitting four year incumbent. Where now now well
over 70% of the people say he shouldn't be running. The
difficulty is, is vice president Harris's numbers are very, very
similar. So they don't really get some huge advantage. Bryan
