President Donald Trump will not be visiting Milwaukee Thursday, and CNN is reporting that the cancellation stems from Harley-Davidson's discomfort in hosting the president during expected protests.
CNN attributed its report to an unnamed Trump administration official.
Trump was expected to deliver a speech on the economy and manufacturing here.
Over the weekend, sources told the Journal Sentinel that the Trump team had been scouting locations ahead of the planned visit, and were considering places like State Fair Park and Harley-Davidson.
Trump's recent actions on immigration, including banning refugees from seven Muslim countries, have caused massive protests across the country.

For the short term maybe our best hope is for a Gerald Ford to replace the evil clown.
I see a of of parallels between Trump and Nixon, and Pence and Agnew.
