Exclusive — Gov. Scott Walker: Federal Government ‘Too Big To Fail,’ Next President Must Shrink It So It’s ‘Small Enough To Succeed’

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview over Memorial Day weekend that he’s getting much closer to a decision on whether he’ll pursue a presidential campaign in 2016, a decision he expects will come in early July.

“My state budget is done at the end of June, and so obviously my number one responsibility over that period is to complete a state budget—and so I’ve said in state and publicly that I won’t make any declaration about my intentions until after that,” Walker said when asked where he’s at in his decision-making process. “It will be shortly thereafter, not too far after the first of July, but I owe it to the people of Wisconsin first and foremost to be focused on that and to make sure we pass and I sign a budget that continues to lower property taxes and is a reasonable and responsible budget.”

Walker is currently the clear frontrunner in the Republican primary in 2016 according to most polls—in many early state polls he’s got a double digit lead—and when asked why he thinks that’s the case, Walker said it’s because he’s someone who delivers results.

He seems to have the vicious bastard instincts necessary to deal with the left. I also suspect he’s the uniparty 3rd choice behind Jeb! and Rubio.

He’s also walked back his views on amnesty. No doubt a political consideration. He’s a globalist shill like the rest, but he seems smart enough to be subtle about it.

Who knows? He just might be machiavellian enough to make a halfway decent President. I’m sure the uniparty will let us know soon enough.

I like Sarah Palin's version better.
The government is not too big to fail,
it is too big to succeed.

To those outside Wisconsin, I cannot explain to you the joy of watching leftists just lose their sh!t over Walker. I could charge admission! The man is kryptonite to Marxists.

You can ask any conservative from Wisconsin, and I’m sure they’d all tell you they’d be sorry to see him go to Washington. He’s done more in Milwaukee County (as County Exec), and again in the State of Wisconsin (as Governor), than any of us thought possible.

It’s been a 180 degree transformation for the state, against all odds, and against a multi-year’s-long bused-in rent-a-mob siege of the capitol.

You know how Republicans like to be “nice” to the Democrats in Washington, in order to get along and go along? Don’t expect that from Walker. One day, a very conservative law will get proposed, get voted out of committee, to the full Assembly and Senate, and then signed into law, all before the left figures out what’s going on, and BAM! A new conservative law.

Next up, no abortions past 20 weeks. Bingo, bango, law!
