Scott Walker talks birthright citizenship
“(Walker is) a thoughtful guy.
Walker, who is governor of the state of Wisconsin, made that claim while campaigning in New Hampshire.
“I’ve had $100 million spent against me, I’ve had death threats, I’ve had attacks…(so) I’m not intimidated from having that kind of battle”, Walker said.
His most recent budget also did not receive high marks from some Wisconsinites, which likely had an impact on his latest approval rating, Heck said.
Trump had blasted Walker’s tenure as governor just moments earlier.
Supporters also aren’t concerned about criticisms of Walker not being in the state as much now because of his 2016 bid, Duncan said. However, his campaign is derailing, as well as his hopes of becoming president. Walker was one of the first to attend in March and drew positive reviews.
After the event, Walker told reporters he’s looking to distinguish himself from other GOP candidates – and his sharper tone on the stump reflects a changing dynamic in that field.
Every campaign, candidates “hold up some bright, shiny object_’Oh, let’s talk about birthright citizenship, ‘” Carly Fiorina said on NBC’s “Meet the Press”. “And we need to enforce the laws, including those that are in the Constitution”, Walker said, adding that he favors addressing illegal immigration by improving border security and requiring businesses to use a system called E-Verify to check workers’ legal status.
Walker is slamming Republicans in Congress for failing to repeal the president’s health care overhaul. What’s odd here is that Walker promised supporters this week on a conference call that he was going to be more aggressively anti-establishment on the stump and try to win back some of the supporters he’s lost to Trump.
Despite all the tutoring he subsequently arranged with Elliott Abrams and other global policy experts, Walker never quite shook the image of being a lightweight after his awkward appearance before a foreign policy think tank in London, where he refused to take questions on the war in Iraq and Syria or any other controversial topic.
Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker says he isn’t taking a place on whether or not youngsters of immigrants right here illegally ought to mechanically be residents.
It wasn’t until the third time he was asked that Walker finally took a position. The tax credits would be based on age rather than income.
“Over the next two months that’s going to be his focus”, Anton said. “I feel a sense of urgency, (people) want to see it, they want to feel it, and so we’ve started to articulate that”.
