US Rep. Glenn Grothman faces hostile crowd at Oshkosh town hall meeting

People booed and jeered at U.S. Rep. Glenn Grothman as he walked into the Algoma Town Hall just outside Oshkosh Friday morning.

The Republican congressman from Glenbeulah was there for a town hall meeting with around 100 constituents. After the building hit full capacity, around 50 more stood outside.

“This is moving very quickly compared to other administrations, and I think, across the board, he’s done some very good things,” Grothman said.

Boos and shouts erupted around the room. When Grothman praised orders ending birthright citizenship and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, the crowd only got louder.

I hope it continues for 18 months to the primaries though.

Voters tend to have short memories.

He had been on several times and I think Wisconsin Public Radio got fed up. At least I know a host or two wouldn't bring him back on.
