Feingold says Johnson trying to fool voters on Trump
(AP) — Democrat Russ Feingold accused Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson on Wednesday of trying to fool voters with Washington double-speak when he says that he supports but does not endorse Donald Trump for president.
Feingold's comments were in response to Johnson saying Sunday that he supports the presumptive GOP nominee, but that is different from endorsing him.
"People sometimes learn fast political double-speak and the Washington insider game," Feingold told reporters after a tour of a Madison sewage treatment plant.
"Senator Feingold sure does spend a lot of time thinking about political strategy — he's gotten pretty good at the Washington insider game over 18 years in D.C.," Reisinger said.
Ron spends his time focused on doing his job for Wisconsinites, trying to keep America secure, and fighting to protect the interests of hard-working taxpayers.
