WASHNGTON – The Harris-Walz campaign lost no time in setting the stage for rival Donald Trump’s whistle stop in LaCrosse on Thursday. A statement from the Harris-Walz headquarters said: “Donald Trump will have to answer the key question on Wisconsin voters’ minds: ‘Why is he trying to make life harder and more expensive for my family?’” It has been unclear from the Trump advance team whether the former president will be accepting citizen or media questions even though they have described the event as a “townhall.” Trump generally prefers a dialogue-free rally format. The Harris-Walz statement suggested tacks for pressing Trump if the format allows: “In every corner of the state, Trump’s extreme Project 2025 agenda would hurt Wisconsinites: killing Wisconsin jobs and shipping them overseas, imposing a tariff that could cost middle-class families $3,900 a year, banning abortion in the state and across the country, and cutting essential support for farmers.”
