Walker, Johnson, Ryan skipping Trump event

Madison — Wisconsin’s top three Republicans are skipping Donald Trump’s visit to Green Bay.

The billionaire GOP presidential nominee's trip to the Badger State is coming just days after he declined to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan and praised Ryan's primary opponent, Paul Nehlen.

On Wednesday, Trump's running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, told Fox News he was backing Ryan in next week's Republican primary. He said he was doing so in part at the behest of Trump.

Also Wednesday, Gov. Scott Walker made clear where he stood in the feud between Trump and Ryan. "I'm 100% with Paul Ryan," Walker said in a brief interview in a state Capitol hallway.
