scared him off like you know when there's like a strange cat in your yard and you
go and you slap your hands and they run away there's that just grandpa's that
do that I spooked him and he ran across the way
now we've seen yeah yeah well we put the big here and now banner in front and
took the chairs down and that helped no just like a list of the the grift and
Rudy Giuliani and Roger Stone and you know all the typical Congress people you'd
expect what else have we seen
and I'll don junior yeah just the usual ones you'd expect
okay
you're watching Republican National Convention coverage from Milwaukee I'm
Frederica Freiber we'll stay with news hour coverage but we want to check in
now with your now senior political reporters act Schultz who comes to us
from Milwaukee and hi Zach so tonight the culmination of the Republican
Convention with Donald Trump speaking for an hour and a half to start at 9 p.m.
but what did Wisconsin delegates have to say on this the final day of the
convention well they are definitely excited that in this they look at this
the different convention than ones that others have been to in the past and that
normally it kind of builds up to Thursday when you finally get to hear the
nominee give their speech and there was so much energy on Monday because Donald
Trump appeared in his first time seeing with the bandage over the year and then
the announcement of his VP pick so this has really been a pretty crazy week in
terms of normal convention timing so this is the peak the pinnacle but it's
not like it's been low energy before this so also also we heard from oh sorry
go ahead
you can go ahead oh we also heard from Scott Fitzgerald
Congressman Fitzgerald who represents the district surrounding here and he came
and spoke to the delegates this morning and he's been doing a lot of outreach
he's been speaking with delegates from all the other states trying to sell
Wisconsin sell Milwaukee sell the brand and here's what he had to say about the
reaction he's been getting from others who are new to the state what an
opportunity to show the rest of the country the city of Milwaukee and as
Milwaukee goes so goes the state of Wisconsin right this is I have had more
comments about what a wonderful convention this is this has been has it
been the story on the ground those act that it's been successful economically
for the city well I think that depends on who you talk to there are certainly
some venues that have been busy every night we walk by them on our way out of
the out of the secure perimeter and that the tables are full but then you go
to a different places a little bit farther away and they're empty and they
we've seen pictures of empty bars we've heard from places saying they haven't
seen any of the normal business either so it just depends on whether they were
close enough to be in the right spot or have a delegation that was nearby a lot
of the delegates were staying outside the city like up to 40 percent whereas far
away as Madison or Chibwegan so they're really not going to have an opportunity
to come back down and spend money here so so a quick note on this also Diane
Hendrick spoke tonight she's listed as an every day American that's not
exactly right is it no certainly not she is a very successful entrepreneur and
business owner out of Beloit she's also the state's richest woman worth like
21 billion dollars so to say that she's every day it doesn't really relate to
those of us who are closer to every day American but she's certainly an
amazing success to success story within the Republican Party all right it's
actual it's thank you so much we look forward to joining tomorrow night as
well sorry you guys sorry obviously we're not back with you tomorrow night we'll
just pick that up this is a big edit Marissa all right state where you are
thank you thank you Zach thank you for your work all week we will be can you I'm
sorry you guys can you pull the prompter up to tomorrow join here and now great
again Zach thank you thank you for your work all week tomorrow join here and now
it's seven for a one-hour special with full coverage of the convention and what
it means for Wisconsin boy that got messy didn't it yeah sorry about that
I realize as soon as I stop talking that you probably want to meet a lead right
into Scott Fitzgerald and then I think with the timing we talked over each
other yeah and I decided I decided not to do it myself do you want to do it
again just to make it cleaner or do you want us to just edit it up are you
talking to me are you talking to you they're offering to do I'm fine with
whatever Marissa I'm fine with whatever I'm sure the edit will look fine but that
with there were enough stumbles on it what do you want to work with yeah yeah
not to mention the way our faces might look well we're deciding we're doing
okay
so Fred can you hear me yes just to clarify do you want me to go straight
from the Trump answer into fits or do you want to ask a question no that's what
we didn't have the right the first time yeah well actually my question was
what did Wisconsin delegates say on this final day that was my question and
that's and that's supposed to lead into fits for you okay right I see okay I like
now I got where you're going for some for some reason I thought there was
gonna be another one then I realized halfway through if there wasn't so you
will just ask the one question I will answer and lead it into fit yeah I will
get it there I'm okay I got it thank you
you
you're watching Republican National Convention coverage from Milwaukee I'm
Frederica Freiber we'll stay with news hour coverage but we want to check in
now with here and now senior political reporter Zach Schultz who comes to us
from Milwaukee and hi Zach so tonight is the culmination of course of the
Republican National Convention with Donald Trump speaking for an hour and a
half I understand starting at 9 p.m. Final day also of course for everyone
else there what did the Wisconsin delegation have to say about kind of
their final day well there's a lot of energy here they've been saying this is
but a pretty exciting week obviously it's the home state they get to show off
their state to the rest of the delegates from around the country and brag a
little bit about Wisconsin and Milwaukee they've got a long day plan for them
even after tonight they have a special concert available with the local casino
so there's some people that were told hey you leave your hotel room at 9 this
morning you may not get back in there until 2 a.m. but the impression seems to
be pretty positive we also heard from Congressman Scott Fitzgerald who
represents the area just west of here in Waukesha County and he said he's been
doing a lot of outreach with other delegates from around the country and
that the response from them has been overwhelmingly positive about their
experience here what an opportunity to show the rest of the country the city
of Milwaukee and as Milwaukee goes so goes the state of Wisconsin right this
is I have had more comments about what a wonderful convention this is be this
has been what about local businesses is did they meet expectations I think that
depends on which business you're talking about it's completely hit or miss when
we leave the secure perimeter each night we walk by some places that are packed
all the tables are full it's clear that they're doing really well and you go a
little further a couple blocks out and it's empty and we've heard that from
around the city that some places that are normally would have good business
with just the local population are really struggling this week so it just depends
on who has them and who doesn't we took note of the schedule for scheduled
speakers and Diane Hendricks is listed as an everyday American and she spoke
tonight what about her being an everyday American well that's kind of an odd
label Diane Hendricks is a Republican mega donor from Beloit she's also an
extraordinarily successful entrepreneur and business owner she and her late
husband own ABC supply she's Wisconsin's wealthiest woman worth more than 21
billion dollars she's heavily involved in state politics so to say that she's
every day really doesn't compute except in the sense that she's not a
politician all right as a sexual thanks so much and thanks for all of your work
this week tomorrow join here and now for a seven o'clock one hour special with
full coverage of the convention and what it means for Wisconsin
going to the casino tonight then Zach no they didn't invite the media to part
it's Jason Aldine isn't he the guy that's saying that song about like there's
no black people in my hometown or some racist stuff like that so very yeah yeah
