WisDems Chair Statement on State of the Union
MADISON, Wis. — In response to Donald Trump’s rambling and delusional State of the Union Address, WisDems Chair Devin Remiker released the following statement:
“As Wisconsinites see the cost of everything skyrocketing, from their health care costs to grocery prices, they’re being forced to choose between going hungry and paying the bills. Trump’s State of the Union was doubling down on the same broken policies that have fueled this affordability crisis. What he and the GOP want you to believe is that life has never been better, but you don’t have to drive down Main Street or pop into your local convenience store to know that has never been further from the truth.
“Our state and country cannot take another two years of Trump and the GOP’s chaos campaign. They’ve proven they are willing to steamroll the Constitution to get their way and are going so far as trying to pass legislation that would stop married women from voting. That’s why every election from now until November is an emergency—we have to win at every level to make sure Trump doesn’t finish his mission of breaking our country.”
“We’re no longer running elections against Republican candidates—they’re Trump candidates who only care about keeping him happy, not making their constituents’ lives better. It’s these same sort of selfish elected officials who killed the American dream that Democrats are trying to bring back to life. Our economy, our democracy, and our livelihoods are all on the line this November. I know that any Wisconsinite who had the displeasure of watching this rambling incoherent bluster knows they have been abandoned by the GOP, and that the only way to bring costs down and make life better is by electing new leaders, not Trump bootlickers.”
