Scott Walker: Darn Those Meddling Kids!
After his losing Tuesday's election for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Dan Kelly was a very poor loser when he gave his misogynistic non-concession speech. But he wasn't even the biggest loser of the day.
That title falls to former governor Scott Walker. On Tuesday, Walker saw not one, but two, of his politically appointed judges go down in flames. And with the supreme court now flipping over to progressive hands, Walker is looking at the beginning of the end of his depraved legacy, including the extreme gerrymandering, the restoration of reproductive healthcare for women, and the restoration of voters rights. The one that must hurt Walker the most is the possible overturning of Act 10 and Right to Work, leading to the return of the unions. If you recall, that was his only talking point in his failed presidential bid.
Obviously, walker had to find a scapegoat rather than admit that people are rejecting the Republicans' fascism. He decided to blame those meddling, voting kids who had years and years of "liberal indoctrination." At least that's what he said when he went on Fox to discuss the shellacking the Republicans took on Tuesday. He added that all that the kids hear is the liberal viewpoint and they don't have a chance to hear the other side.
Obviously, there's a lot wrong with Walker's overly simplistic explanation.
