This weekend, the Republican Party of Wisconsin is hosting its 2022 State Convention. Learn about the Wisconsin GOP’s infighting and self-serving, extremist agenda here!
A race to the bottom.
Under pressure to stand out in a crowded primary, Tim Ramthun, Rebecca Kleefisch, Kevin Nicholson and Tim Michels have made the Republican primary a race to the bottom. Four people who appear to truly dislike each other have created a chaotic primary, where only the most extreme and radical agendas win, and the people of Wisconsin lose.
Don’t take our word for it, though.
Just listen to what these Republican hopefuls have to say about each other:
“Kevin Nicholson is an opportunist who has proven time and time again that he is willing to literally say or do anything, in order to become a part of the political establishment that he claims to hate so much.”
Rebecca Kleefisch on WSAU, 2/10/22
“I'll tell you folks, I'm in a primary right now with someone who is running around saying she wants to surge the State Patrol to violent areas. Like we have 500 State Patrol in the entire state. That is such an unserious proposal that I can't even put words to it. The cops […] when I tell them that she's saying that, they laugh, because it's not a serious idea.”
Kevin Nicholson on the Regular Joe Show, 5/5/22
“[I’m] essentially in first place. [...] I’m beating people who have been running for governor for four years. The gal that they wanted to make, the establishment pick they wanted to make ‘the one,’ I’m taking her out in multiple counties.”
Tim Ramthun on the Pete Santilli Show, 4/1/22
“I don't know if he's reformable or not, but we'll try before we terminate someone at Michels. […] You know, Robin Vos, again, I think with some leadership, maybe we can get them to a passing grade.
Tim Michels on the Regular Joe Show, 5/9/22
“They're sitting over there on the other side of the political aisle, cackling at what they hope will be a dumpster fire over in the Republican Party.”
