1. I know a policeman who will simply knock on his door and arrest him.

I'm also six degrees of separation from 200 million Americans who will place him under citizens arrest.

[mountain grammy]

28. Then do it

[IluvPitties]

2. What is wrong with that POS?

[Blue_true]

5. Total power grab.

Some are decent people, but I have never met a republican who did not have some facist tendency.

[dameatball]

27. They like things to be in order, as long as it the order they prefer.

[Blue_true]

35. Yelp. nt

[elleng]

6. What is wrong with Wisconsin?

[LakeArenal]

9. Exact same thing that is wrong with America nt

[pnwmom]

11. Not America. Just Trump's America. n/t

[JI7]

15. he would never win in California and these days not in Virginia either

and he would not have won in Wisconin some years back either so the question is what went wrong with wisconsin.

[democratisphere]

20. Excessive cheese eating has blocked the arteries to their brain.

[LakeArenal]

23. That is so offensive....

In Wisconsin it's basically 47% to 47%. We fight for 4% points. When not cheated, we have voted faithfully for Obama twice. Without Gerrymandering my and the three counties around me were blue. Once gerrymandered, only one and not my own, is blue. Believe me, we had no big exit of democrats, no big influx of new Repugs. We ALL know without hacking, Clinton would be president. Right this minute, Wanker is so freaked out, he's refusing two special elections because he knows he'll lose, so the Rats are scurrying to change the law on special elections.

Maybe do a little research before you hand out insults. Try using your seemingly superior brain.

So much for trying to be inclusive.. Cuz you ain't.

[tritsofme]

24. lol, I hope you don't travel to Chicago during football season.

Lighten up Francis!

[LakeArenal]

25. Football? Nice change of topic.

Bears still...never mind. Not worth the energy.

See, one jack gets offensive and another jack sure to follow.

[tritsofme]

30. I've always found the native language and customs of your people very fascinating.

Never understood much, but fascinating nonetheless!

[LakeArenal]

34. Obviously.

[KatyMan]

33. Welcome to being a Texan....n/t

[Skittles]

7. they know they can't win without cheating

[Demovictory9]

8. exactly

[htuttle]

3. Again?

[oasis]

4. Huh?

[ProudLib72]

10. Walker has a point

"It would be senseless to waste taxpayer money on special elections just weeks before voters go to the polls when the legislature has concluded its business," Walker said. "This is why I support, and will sign, the Senate and Assembly plan to clarify special election law."

McConnell did it with the SCOTUS seat. Now Walker is going to do it, too. Thanks McTurtle for setting a great precedent for your GOP ratfuckers to follow.

[C Moon]

17. Yeah, he has a point: a point of making sure everything goes for the GOP, and not by the law.

The fucker needs to be thrown out of office and into prison.

[Kablooie]

12. Republicans everywhere have decided that law doesn't matter.

America should not be a nation of laws.

America should be a a nation that does what *I* want, law be damned.

[Freelancer]

13. Imperial Walker -- retouched image

[pbmus]

14. Very well done....

[C Moon]

16. I figured as much. McConnell, then Trump, now Walker.

If this were a Democratic candidate, he'd be in prison.
The U.S. is fucked up; the Dems need to start putting these fuckers in prison.
I don't understand what the difference is.
Money?
Is that what it is?

[octoberlib]

18. The Kochs. They were behind

McConnell’s refusing to replace SC judge, too.

[onetexan]

19. Contempt of court in near future for the scumbag

[pansypoo53219]

21. cheaters to the end.

[uponit7771]

22. +1, that's the only way they're winning anything. All the red states HRC was projected

... to win in 16 and lost were VSM states including Wisconsin

Bastards

[Ohiogal]

26. Lock him up!!!

[IADEMO2004]

29. Lock them all up for contempt until law is changed.

Or not changed and just leave them locked up.

[lkinwi]

31. i dont understand my state anymore.

This crap will continue until Walker and his cronies are voted out.

[peggysue2]

32. There's little difference between Wisconsin and Pennsylvania's . . .

contempt for the Rule of Law. Republicans didn't get their way in the recent election ruling, so they scramble to change the law to fit the result they want. Republican legislators didn't like the ruling of their State Supreme Court regarding gerrymandering, so they want to impeach the Justices.

This is a Party, the Republican Party, that has gone rogue, pushing against our Constitutional Republic, turning over their own State norms and laws.

Vote Them Out!
