The RNC happened in Milwaukee and got plenty of mixed reactions. After the perception of an economic windfall, some businesses absolutely thrived while others had their slowest weeks in months. But what actually happened and what are its effects? I brought on three Milwaukeeans who were in the trenches all last week: Omar Shaikh (RNC Host Committee, Carnivore, 3rd St Market Hall), Kristen Brey (As Goes WI, WTMJ, Journal Sentinel) and James Groh (CBS58). 

We covered the following: 

• The real economic impact of Milwaukee and why some businesses thrived and others didn’t 
• What it was like inside the perimeter 
• Craziest things seen at the convention 
• Biggest surprises covering the convention 
• Notable celebrity interactions 
• Polarizing political media 
• Overall lessons learned from the RNC coming to Milwaukee
