America About To Fall In Love With Scott Walker, Says Scott Walker

Here's a neat idea!


America About To Fall In Love With Scott Walker, Says Scott Walker

This will probably be news to you, America, but you are nanomilimicroseconds away from falling head over heels for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. True, you don’t love him now, and you’ve been liking him less and less all year, but that’s about to change. How do we know? Not because it says so on his hat, but because he said it, which pretty much makes it a fact. So, BOOM, ta da, and case closed.



. . . .



Take his ideas about immigration, for example, which Donald Trump totally copied from him. Except for the parts, like backspacing birthright citizenship out of the Constitution, that Walker may, or may not, agree with. Should Americans born in America be American citizens, like it says right there in the 14th Amendment? Yes. Or no. Or maybe! Or maybe not. Or maybe you shouldn’t even bother asking him because he thinks that’s one of those dumb questions he’d rather not answer.
I said, whether it’s talking about the 14th amendment or anything else, until we secure the border and enforce the laws, we shouldn’t be talking about any other issue out there. And politicians that do are trying to distract from the fact that, for years, in this town, Washington D.C., politicians have made promises about securing the border and enforcing the laws they haven’t been able to fulfill.

. . . .


Fine, Scott Walker, if you don’t feel up to discussing the topic all the other Republican candidates are discussing right now, what do you want to talk about? Building a wall on the northern border of US America too, so we can keep out all the Canasexicans, hahahaha?
Yes, actually: Some people have asked us about that in New Hampshire. They raised some very legitimate concerns, including some law enforcement folks that brought that up to me at one of our town hall meetings about a week and a half ago. So that is a legitimate issue for us to look at.

. . . . .

Gosh, with Walker, you just never know what’s worth talking about, what’s better left alone, what’s cool, what’s lame, and what’s going to make him have that confused “Uh oh, did I just make a doody in my pants again?” face. Which might not be all that appealing to Republican primary voters, but at least it entertains the hell out of us. So that’s something.

Not sarcasm.

I want to employ approximately 100,000 Americans to do the work.

I want to build attractive walls that will have professional graffiti artists involved.

I want the walls to have multiple areas where doors exist to allow people to come through.

And if we cant do that, I want to dig 25 holes in 25 states, employing 5000 people in each state to dig the holes.

Then I want to pay those same people to fill the hole in again.

I want to do this because if you properly tax the rich and corps, you can use the income to employ your citizens and give them a decent life.

I think repairing our crumbling infrastructure and then adding some great new infrastructure would be a lot more beneficial than walls on the border.

Not the governor. He is not photogenic. America can only love the photogenic.
