Walker, back on Trump bandwagon, announces he’ll speak at convention
Wisconsin governor didn’t say exactly when he’d speak
MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says he’ll speak at the Republican National Convention.
After an event in Platteville, Wis., Tuesday, Walker said he’s agreed to speak at GOP gathering in Cleveland July 18-21.
He did not, however, specify as to what day or time, exactly.
Walker acknowledged he’s now rejecting the idea that Donald Trump could be replaced as the GOP nominee.
Two weeks ago he believed delegates should be free to vote their consciences. Tuesday, he said a vote for anyone other than Trump is a “de facto vote” for Hilary Clinton.
The governor, who’s been the subject of Trump attacks, says he’ll put them aside for the good of the country.
