Trump: Walker's state 'is really in trouble'

?itok=6hspUJe2

Real estate mogul Donald Trump said on Sunday he is not intimidated by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, given his fellow GOP presidential candidate’s handling of the Badger State.

“Well, I’m not worried because his state is really in trouble,” Trump told host George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s “This Week.”
“I mean, it’s a fantastic place,” he said. “I love the people of Wisconsin, but if you look at what’s going on, they have a $2.2 billion deficit. They were supposed to have a surplus of $1 billion and they have $2.2 billion.”

“There’s tremendous divisions throughout the state,” Trump added. “He stopped a lot of work because he didn’t want to raise taxes. So instead of raising taxes, he’s borrowing to the hilt and his state is overleveraged.”

Trump then argued Walker’s handling of Wisconsin is proof he would fare no better managing the U.S.

I haven't seen one from Bernie, thus far. When he smiles, it doesn't say the same thing, maybe.

Does not take any smarts to figure that out. Just go away and take your hate filled message with you.
