Before Scott Walker, Wisconsin politics were spirited yet civil, but have been replaced today by scorched-earth, single-party governance so toxic that Walker refuses to appear in public before any skeptical audience. Sycophants only, please.

.....................But here was Boots money quote: What most troubles me about Trumps presidency is the extent to which he is dividing Americans in service to his own political ambitions.
That also precisely describes Scott Walker. Indeed, Wisconsins governor had a six-year head start on Trump in the art of prevailing by dividing.
For years, Walker has been sending the same message to voters that Trump sent in 2016: Your life isnt what youd hoped for, and its those people public workers, liberals and people of color who are to blame. And I will stick it to them. And he has.
.......................................................
In a Washington Post story this week about Walkers comeback from his dreadful presidential campaign failure, he brushes off his low poll numbers and narrow victories.......................
.............Another similarity between Trump and Walker is that both regard women as targets, albeit in different ways. Trump famously bragged of grabbing women and is an alleged serial sexual harasser. Walker hurts women through his policies he defunded Planned Parenthood, placed extreme restrictions on doctors providing reproductive health care and championed repeal of a law requiring equal pay for equal work............................

Walker Trump (copy for Fanlund column)
In their core approach to governing by pitting voting blocs against each other, President Donald Trump and Gov. Scott Walker are alike.
