You talking about the guy who repaid donors out of some sort of economic development commission???

They have remarkably similar academic histories. I wonder how often Ivy League schools take junior transfers from mediocre colleges. I would imagine it is quite rare and almost always involves affirmative action (and likely Marxist connections) or Daddy’s money and influence.

I have been uneasy with Flip Flopper Walker, its never a good sign for a Republican.
Walker was OK with Amnesty now he isn’t, that sounds like BOOBIO Marco. Walker backed many of Jebs Common Core causes.
Yeah the Unions got their heads handed to them, but we all know if Walker is the GOP candidate the UNIONS will Mortgage the store to keep him out of the White House.
Trump is just responding to all the hate coming his way and who here wouldn’t respond like Trump if they had his money.
I grew up in New York, Trump is as smart as he brags.
If its true its not bragging.

“...and he (Walker) was totally in support of Common Core.”
Didn’t know that about Walker...he’s FINISHED.

Anyone thinking of supporting Walker should look up his top ‘adviser’ (not sure if he’s gay). And that would be BRAD DAYSPRING.

Lets see how Walker responds. He wants the big brass ring go get it.
HE didn't call Trump dumdum (a fund-raiser did), and didn't incite the fund-raiser to do it. Walker is well-versed in thinking terms of campaign cycles. On Common Core, he has moved from that (for the record, it was in place when he became governor, and he has not, to my knowledge expanded it. It is NOT one of his front burner issues, though.).
Walker is not going to bend the knee over what a fund-raiser said. He is going to move on with his campaign. That is his style.

The Republican candidates need to stay focused on the Nation’s pigressive enemies. Infighting is not helpful.

“Walker is not going to bend the knee over what a fund-raiser said. He is going to move on with his campaign. “
He may want to consider changing that style, if his Republican Party handlers let him. Trump has no intention of playing along.

When your opponent has an MBA from one of the better business schools and your candidate has a high school diploma, it might not be wise to question their intelligence.
I agree that the fund-raiser perhaps should be called dumdum. The whole communication (by the fund-raiser) wasn't that coherent. That said, I've been at some of these schools, and a number of dumdums flourish in them. Trump is not one of them.

He turned $300 million into $10 billion. That’s not “rags-to-riches” but it’s not a normal Trustafarian either.

I meant to imply that he wasn’t a dumdum, not that he was. I perhaps shouldn’t talk as I did undergrad work at a fairly prestigious school, and didn’t manage to make a whole lot out of it.

He's caught SO MUCH worse, in sustained volleys as governor in Wisconsin. Trump's "attack" is water off of a duck's back. The U of Wisconsin progressives and the Unions don't play along either. Walker didn't rely on Republican handlers for that.
Having watched him when I lived and worked in Wisconsin, he strikes me as a Joe Montana, who looks like he is going to get crushed, but ducks at the right moment before letting off the pass.

I think referring to Walker BEFORE he entered national politics doesn’t apply here. The steps he’s taken since becoming a presidential candidate, particularly hiring BRAD DAYSPRING, makes it clear that he’s not controlling things anymore, but rather doing what he feels he must do to raise the kind of money needed for the office.
Sad, I also LOVED seeing him battle and win against the unions, and for a time he was my #2 guy (behind Cruz), but he has gotten too far in bed with The Establishment for me to continue supporting him.

Point taken. Walker is trying to keep one in foot in both sides. I figured the Walker would be the choice if we want to avoid the upcoming intra-party schism for one more cycle, just to keep the Dems out. It looks like Boehner/McConnell are forcing our hand early, though.
I still want a good backup in case Cruz doesn’t get it. Trump (Socialized Medicine) is not it.

Thanks for respecting my opinion (pretty rare here). There are a lot of issues that Trump will have to address, it will be interesting to see how he comes down on them. So far he’s scoring near-perfect.

Mr. Trump, are ANY of your employees in a union, if so, why. Are any of your employees illegal aliens.....if so, why. Do any of the myriad of companies that you contract construction sites with employ union workers or illegal aliens.....if so, why.
