Wealthy construction executive Tim Michels on Thursday landed the endorsement of former President Donald Trump, giving the newest candidate in the Republican primary for governor an edge he needs to compete in a four-way primary that includes the state's well-known former lieutenant governor.
With his endorsement of Michels, Trump inserts himself into the competitive primary with two months to go before Republican voters head to the polls and just after his preferred candidate lost in another battleground state, Georgia.
"Wisconsin needs a Governor who will Stop Inflation, Uphold the Rule of Law, strengthen our Borders (we had the strongest borders in history just two years ago, now we have the weakest!) and End the well-documented Fraud in our Elections," Trump said in a statement late Thursday.
"Tim Michels is the best candidate to deliver meaningful solutions to these problems, and he will produce jobs like no one else can even imagine."

I’m not sure what the governor is supposed to do about inflation, but I do wish Trump would elaborate a bit on what makes Michaels the better choice over the others.
I live here. They are all good candidates. Michels is a roadbuilding insider. He has the most money to spend. Kleefisch is a very good candidate and Lieutenant governor in the successful Scott Walker days. Nicholson strikes me as the most ‘Trumpian’, an outsider. All good candidates. Not sure which is best to beat Skeletor Evers. Probably won’t matter with the Milwaukee/Madison vote fraud machine.
