The Republican National Convention's website mistakenly featured a photo of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, instead of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the actual host city for the event.
This error was highlighted on social media, where a tweet pointing out the mistake garnered over 300,000 views. The incorrect image had been on the RNC's website since at least February, as revealed by archived versions of the site. Following the social media uproar, the RNC promptly corrected the mistake, replacing the photo with the correct skyline of Milwaukee.
This mix-up drew widespread attention and was quickly rectified by the convention's organizers.

Even the GOP can't escape the clutches of a good old bureaucratic snafu, mixing up Milwaukee with Ho Chi Minh City; maybe it's a sign they need to cut down on the government oversight in their web design process.
Can't believe the GOP couldn't tell the difference between Milwaukee and Ho Chi Minh City; it's geography 101, folks.
