Repeating Trump's lie. There is NOT a $2 billion shortfall in Wisconsin.. Wisconsin is running at a small surplus. No matter how many times Trump and you mimicking shrieking Trumpanzees repeat this lie from Democrat talking points WILL NOT make it true.
Walker inherited a huge debt and deficit from his Democrat predecessor. Walker fixed both and he did so while lowering taxes, balancing the state budget AND defeating the unions and a corrupt state election ethics agency (GAB).
You are partially right about DC not being the place to achieve smaller government. But a so-called Trump "pragmatism" and the authoritarian national approach he truly intends will actually make the federal government even LARGER.
What is needed is a devolution of power back to the states, back to counties, cities and smaller units of government. The more localized a decision is produced, the more accountable that decision, government or individual politician is to individual voters and taxpayers. That is the conservative solution and the one espoused by Ted Cruz - the only conservative in the race.

It’s not Trump, it’s from the Wisconsin legislative budget office. Here is one report for 2015-2017. It’s been revised already and is undergoing a further revision which increases the gap even more.
A good background report for those that are not aware of the nuances of Wisconsin budget language is here:
Name-calling and referring falsely to Trump as the cause of all your problems is not going to get you anywhere.
