Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and wife, Jill, will visit Kenosha on Thursday, coming after President Donald Trump toured damage from the unrest in the city on Tuesday — and weeks before voting starts in the key swing state of Wisconsin.
The campaign said Biden “will hold a community meeting in Kenosha to bring together Americans to heal and address the challenges we face. After, Vice President Biden and Dr. Biden will make a local stop.”
Kenosha has been struggling with violence in the wake of the shooting of a Black man, the Evanston-raised Jacob Blake, multiple times in the back by a white Kenosha police officer. The situation was further inflamed when an Antioch youth, Kyle Rittenhouse, ended up being charged with the shooting deaths of two men and wounding a third with the rifle he was carrying into the fray.
Biden’s Kenosha stop will be the first time he has visited Wisconsin as the nominee and after he canceled the Democratic National Convention in-person activities in Milwaukee. Trump has been taunting Biden for ignoring Wisconsin, which Trump won by 22,000 votes in 2016.
This is also the first time Biden will be taking himself out of his carefully controlled COVID-19 bubble and represents moving up the timetable of when his campaign said he would be resuming campaign travel. That original plan was to have Biden hit the swing state road after Labor Day.

Meeting. Why not a rally?
Will there be circles placed on the floor limiting the attendance to five or six persons?
Probably have the business owner who refused to meet with Trump there. The guy said he didn’t want to politicize it, let’s see what he does now.
The numbers must be very bad...
Do you think he’s going to the Mars Cheese Castle?
There are leaders and there are followers.
Yes, we hear his BLM and antifa supporters are good listeners /s
Will Joe take a knee?
Help his supporters paint “Black Lives Matter” on Main Street Kenosha?
Rename the city park?
Lol!!!
Old fool looks like he’s praying for a successful dump not realizing he’s on a chair and not the can.
This reminds me of the “Johnny come lately” remark in Oh Brother Where Art thou”
Now that’s funny!
Follow the Leader. Pathetic.
The guy is probably afraid his business will be gone if he said he is for Trump. And with good reason. Any shop owners proclaiming public support for Trump, will get hit by demon-rat mobs.
