MILWAUKEE, WI — President Donald Trump is making a campaign stop on Tuesday night, Jan. 14, at the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena. It's going to make for an interesting crowd situation: along with political fans, there will also be nearly 20,000 basketball fans headed to the Fiserv Forum for tonight's Bucks game against the New York Knicks.

Both the Trump rally and Bucks game start at the same time about a block from each other.

Milwaukee Police will be closing down several streets in advance of the President's visit. Here's what you need to know in case you're out and about downtown.
