Walker calls Trump’s rise remarkable
Wisconsin governor hasn’t
officially pledged candidate
MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is amazed wit Donald Trump.
The Former Rep. presidential candidate says Trump’s ascent is “one of the most remarkable things we’ve seen in modern political campaign history.”
Walker dropped out of the presidential race in September and has not endorsed anyone. He did say Wednesday, however, he would stand by the pledge he signed when still a candidate to support whoever is the nominee.
Walker isn’t making any predictions about whether that will be Trump, but he says “conventional wisdom is someone who’s won that many states is well on their way toward the nomination.”
Trump has won in three of the first four voting states.
But Walker also hedges his bet, saying, “we’ve seen this year conventional wisdom has proven to be wrong on just about every issue.”
