Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports:
Former President Donald Trump again has the state’s most powerful Republican in his crosshairs, seeking to intimidate Assembly Speaker Robin Vos into continuing a taxpayer-funded review of the 2020 election that has not produced evidence to support Trump’s claims of widespread voter fraud.
Without naming Vos, Trump suggested in a statement to his millions of supporters that the Rochester Republican will see a successful primary opponent if he does not extend former Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman’s contract with the state Assembly.
“Anyone calling themselves a Republican in Wisconsin should support the continued investigation in Wisconsin without interference,” Trump said.
“I understand some RINOs have primary challengers in Wisconsin. I’m sure their primary opponents would get a huge bump in the polls if these RINOs interfere,” Trump said, using an acronym for “Republicans In Name Only.” Trump did not name Vos’ primary opponent Adam Steen.
