Just days after Donald Trump questioned whether a federal judge could fairly preside over the lawsuit filed against Trump University due to his Mexican heritage, Gov. Scott Walker (R-Wisconsin) seemed to question whether he can still support the presumptive Republican presidential nominee in November.
"It's just sad in America that we have such poor choices right now," Gov. Walker told 27 News, after disavowing Trump's racist comments about Judge Gonzalo Curiel.
Walker, who has expressed tepid support for Trump since he became the presumptive nominee last month, wouldn't say that whether would continue to endorse him going forward.

Not half as sad as his presidential campaign.
“He’s not yet the nominee. Officially that won’t happen until the middle of July and so for me that’s kind of the time frame that, in particular, I want to make sure he renounces what he says - at least in regards to this judge,” said Gov. Walker.
Cry us a big ol’ GOPe river, Scotty.
Vote Trump 2016
We need to start a campaign to win without Republicans. They’ll only hurt Trump’s chances.

La Raza Founder: ‘We Have Got To Eliminate The White Man. We Have Got To Kill Him’
Bill Clinton gave this aspiring mass murderer the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In addition to co-founding La Raza, he is also an attorney and professor at the University of Texas at Arlington.
David Horowitz features Gutierrez in his 2006 book The Professors — The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America. According to Horowitz, Gutierrez is the 6th most dangerous Academic in America.
Cesar Chavez said that La Raza is racist
“...while reading a memoir/history of the immigration reform movement by retired historian Otis Graham (who’s on CIS’s board), I find out that even Cesar Chavez rejected the “la raza” idea as inherently racist. Graham quoted a 1969 New Yorker profile by Peter Matthiessen:
“I hear more and more Mexicans talking about la raza—to build up their pride, you know,” Chavez told me. “Some people don’t look at it as racism, but when you say ‘la raza,’ you are saying an anti-gringo thing, and it won’t stop there. Today it’s anti-gringo, tomorrow it will be anti-Negro, and the day after it will be anti-Filipino, anti-Puerto Rican. And then it will be anti-poor-Mexican, and anti-darker-skinned Mexican. ... La raza is a very dangerous concept. I speak very strongly against it among the chicanos.”
...in Sal Si Puedes: Cesar Chavez and the New American Revolution, his 1970 biography, Matthiessen talked to Chavez deputy Leroy Chatfield:
“That’s one of the reasons he is so upset about la raza. The same Mexicans that ten years ago were talking about themselves as Spaniards are coming on real strong these days as Mexicans. Everyone should be proud of what they are, of course, but race is only skin-deep. It’s phony and it comes out of frustration; the la raza people are not secure. They look upon Cesar as their ‘dumb Mexican’ leader; he’s become their saint. But he doesn’t want any part of it. He said to me just the other day, ‘Can’t they understand that that’s just the way Hitler started?’ A few months ago the Ford Foundation funded a la raza group and Cesar really told them off. The foundation liked the outfit’s sense of pride or something, and Cesar tried to explain to them what the origin of the word was, that it’s related to Hitler’s concept.”
In 1968, the Ford Foundation started the Southwest Council of La Raza, presumably the “outfit” Chatfield was referring to, which five years later changed its name to the National Council of La Raza.”

How many delegates did you win, Gov?
Talk about ‘sad’. You didn’t even make much of a showing, even though the press has you as the #1 choice early in the election cycle.
Now, you want to be a backstabber, like many of your other sour grapes coalition colleagues.
Trump was entirely correct in what he said about this biased judge. I am appalled at the behavior of certain GOPe types in trying to damage their own party’s nominee. Trump said nothing racist or outrageous in any way. This is being played up by the media for partisan advantage. Disgusting behavior by the media and by some GOP.
Awww Little itty bitty Scottie is still butt hurt..../s
I thought having the author of obamacare run again obama was the saddest.
What I find sad is that all of us on the right side of the political spectrum have no choice but to vote for Republicans if we don’t want the leftists in power. If our system were actually fair, we could vote for people that represent our interests for a change. Oh well, at least we get to vote for Trump, although only because he outsmarted them at their own game.
I also thought walker was a VP candidate possibility.
And 0bama said of Garland, “He’s a White guy. Sorry about that.”
Who’s the racist again?
Yeh Scott since you really lit everyone on fire. Loser!
sounds like he’s still aligned with the Most Butthurt More-Conservative-than-Thou fringe of Wisconsin. And hasn’t made even the long list for Veep, evidently.
I think “was” is the key here
This is more about Walker protecting the elite status of “professional politicians” — a clique closed to “outsiders” like Donald Trump who dare to run for national office as a non-political hack.
“I also thought walker was a VP candidate possibility.”
I’m suRe he would be less sad if he had a chance at VP.
