Republican presidential hopeful businessman Donald Trump speaks to the media after a rally on July 25 in Oskaloosa, Iowa. During his last visit to the state, Trump sparked controversy when he said Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), a former prisoner of war, was not a war hero.

I usually am. ;-)
The biggest problem with all government spending regardless of what party is in charge is that they spend the ‘projected’ money and never cut when it doesn’t come in.
This is a reason, without people taking control, I don’t believe in balanced budgets or amendments. Force a lying politician to balance and they’ll ALWAYS start with the spending side you MUST fund else every child will die and then they say “we have to balance the budget and to do that we need more revenue”.
This is proven over and over and over. I see it here in TN all the time.
there is a huge amount of construction\reconstruction of roadways all over Wisconsin, even as we post.
Now, what sort of Freeper brother would I be if I let you wallow in all that disorienting mental confusion?
Come with me - come back to the light, my FRiend :-)
Trump was never a governor, dealing with unions, bureaucracy, taxes, deficits, Federal regs, lawsuits, etc...
LOL, that’s rich!! As a developer in NYC, and around the world, that’s all Trump deals with day in, day out. I see that others have brought this to your attention, as well.
Is this my oldest kid? He says this kind of stuff to me all the time. :-P
Walker’s reforms actually SAVED Wisconsin education in some of thelargest districts. Before Act 10, thousands of teachers were slated to lose their jobs because of out of control health insurance and pension costs. Act 10 saved all of those jobs by allowing school districts to shop competitively for insurance. What you may not realize is that the insurance companies were owned by the Teachers’ Unions, allowing them to set their own rates (very high).
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, tis Wisconsin interest ping list.
Prepare for disappointment. Walker has peaked and is already fading.
so you support the liberal comments Trump made about Wisconsin....using union thug talking points.
Good to get you out as a pro union lib.
OK we all get it. You are upset that Donald Trump is running away with the GOP nomination. :-)
No spinster, you don't get it. What you don't get is that I've been four years ahead of this Trump story....ahead of you.....and it's playing out kind of like I imagined. What you don't get is that no one runs away with the nomination in friggin August of the year before....that's beyond stupid (probably why it appeals to you). And also what you don't get, if he gets the nom, I'll certainly vote for him.
I love the way that as soon as you run out of facts to back up your theory which is usually almost within a nanosecond of uttering it suddenly everyone is a bad name.
I think at this point I’ll just declare victory. :-)
You mean the fact that I was writing that he was bringing some very important qualities to the debate....that all GOP candidates should take note of what he was doing? And the fact that none of that changes his Obama fan status? Maybe you were foolish enough to fall for Obama and maybe you cheered Obama in 2007-08 too.....I wouldn't be surprised.
Another anti Walker screed by our resident lefty troll conservativejoy that is lapped up either by additional lefty trolls or by supporters of other candidates too lazy to actually do a little research on the websites our little troll uses.
What should concern everyone here is that Trump is using the same websites as sourcing for his attacks on Walker’s budget, education, and road building as our little lefty troll uses.
I thought the country was in bad shape because Obama was elected TWICE; but never did I imagine so many FReepers would be bamboozled by the likes of a hustler like Trump.
Why even engage Georgia Girl 2 at this point? It adds no value to the discussion. Her posts are all the same on every Scott Walker thread.
He’s peaked. He’s owned by the Chamber of Commerce. He’s a flip - flopper. Nya, nya nya . . .
GG2, you do your beautiful state no favors.
Scott Walker is the GOPe default candidate for when Jebbie crashes and burns. Don’t get sucked into his severely conservative story. He’s another establishment candidate who if elected will not secure the border and will happily sign any amnesty bill Boehner and Mitchie send his way.
Just waiting for someone else to put her in her place...thanks...you did.
Residing in Milwaukee and observing Scott Walker in action since he was County Executive, I call bullshit on your tripe. I have witnessed his actions and accomplishments first hand. I’ve witnessed the lies and mistruths thrown at him for years.
Quite frankly, you need to up your game if you wish to compete with the naysayers.
He is not just taking anti-Bush votes, he is beating Bush.
