All of the data says Trump is spot on. Pew Research, Forbes, Bloomberg, just to name a few have supported the dismal record of jobs and the economy in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin is losing its Middle Class at a faster rate than any other state. Under Walker they are 44th in private sector jobs growth, 40th in salaries, and 50th in new business start ups. Wisconsin’s economy is growing at about half the rate the national economy is growing, which is really lousy.
Trump is right about the huge sums of money being borrowed by the state. The $ 517 million budget surplus that Walker talks about doesn’t exist. That goes away when you figure in just one of the loans the state recently took out for $800 million.
Trump has the best researchers money can hire. He doesn’t speak without the facts and Finance is Trump’s World.

Whacky dishonest lies. If Trump wants to win lying, why don’t we just elect Hillary.
Not only that, since Walker took office, income taxes have been cut by $750 million. Property taxes were cut more than $800 million since 2011. In fact, with the signing of this budget, Wisconsin will have its fifth and sixth straight year of substantial property tax relief.
When Walker said he was going to try and cut the tax burden every year he was in office, he truly meant it. What a welcome reversal to the trend of steady income and property tax increases from the past administration.
Gov. Walker also made a good faith effort to get Wisconsin’s borrowing under control, and the legislature even improved upon his plan. They brought bonding down 67 percent compared to the 2013-15 budget, a level we have not seen around here in decades.

One of the major bond rating agencies upgraded the state of Wisconsin on Thursday...
The ratings agency Moody’s revised Wisconsin’s outlook from stable to positive. Moody’s cited Wisconsin’s well-funded pension system, as well as recent steps taken to reduce the state’s budget deficit measured by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Gov. Scott Walker told an audience of California conservatives that “Our pension system is the only one in the country that’s 100% funded.”
