Joe Fadness leaves director post at state GOP, joins Scott Walker’s

Walker spoke to reporters after taking selfies with customers and munching on a “cheezeborger” at the Billy Goat Tavern, the subteranean eatery immortalized by “Saturday Night Live” in the 1970s and made famous for having its owner put a curse on the Chicago Cubs in 1945 that has lasted to this day.

Wisconsin Republican Party executive director Joe Fadness is leaving his position to join Scott Walker’s presidential campaign.

“Donald Trump can speak just fine for Donald Trump. I’m gonna tell you what I’m for”, said Walker, who brought back a 2014 reelection campaign mantra he used to success against Democrat Mary Burke. “We’re gonna talk about where we want to take this country”.

Walker was in Illinois as part of a fundraising and political tour of his neighboring state.

Chicago – In a swing through the storied Billy Goat Tavern, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker dismissed criticism Monday from fellow GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump and distanced himself from the views of a former hostage in Iran whom Walker highlighted when he launched his presidential bid. He’s been with the state Republican party’s operation since 2013.

While Walker said he would not eliminate the EPA if elected president, he would shift its powers and resources to state environmental agencies such as Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources. “I think they’re exhausted of candidates talking about who they’re against”, said Walker.

Illinois, of course, is a very blue state, so why did Governor Walker campaign there?

“I was in Missouri yesterday, I’m here today and I was in North Carolina on Friday”, said Walker. Walker will make two stops in Philadelphia to meet with voters, activists, and local leaders as he continues to share his message as a fighter and a victor with a proven record of reform in Wisconsin.
