Why is that?

Well, it could be because Trump used verbatim false Democrat talking points last fall to attack his then-rival Gov. Scott Walker as having created a $2 billion state budget deficit. Under Walker, the state has run at small surplus while cutting taxes, fixing the deficit left by his Democrat predecessor and passing many conservative reforms.
Or it could be that Trump repeated the slander this spring before our primary. The Donald actually doubled down on his Democrat-sourced talking points and falsely said that Walker slashed school funding. Most insultingly, the Donald tripled down and said Walker should have raised taxes to fix both the deficit and restore school funding.
We love our Governor. We love our conservative reforms. We love our lower taxes - and want them reduced further, not raised!
Beyond all that, maybe the reason 80% of Wisconsin GOP voters despise Trump is because we largely recognize Trump as a slimy, disingenuous NYC salesman who is NOT a conservative.
Interesting points about Trump trashing Walker.
Trump’s first campaign strategy is vague but grandiose promises to solve all problems and make American great again.
Trump’s second campaign strategy is trashing and he is seldom called on it. His supporters don’t even care.
He trashed a good man, Walker.
He trashed Ben Carson, horribly. Horribly. But nobody here cared and then he later bought poor old Ben Carson.
Of course, he has trashed Cruz but his supporters love and mimic that.
