Scott Walker Earns Seat at Kids' Table

It took three questions—addressed to Carly Fiorina, Donald Trump and Rand Paul—from CNN debate moderators for attention-starved Scott Walker to interrupt, inform the country what's important, get in his rehearsed line abut Trump and lie about Wisconsin.

From last night (Time Magazine transcript):

Scott Walker: But Jake, Jake, Jake, Jake ....

Scott Walker: But Jake, this — this is — this …

Scott Walker:  Jake, this is — this is — this is …

Donald Trump:  But I have to say …

Scott Walker: This is actually what’s wrong — this is what’s wrong with this debate. We’re not talking about real issues. And Mr. Trump, we don’t need an apprentice in the White House.

(APPLAUSE)
We don’t need an apprentice in the White House. We have one right now. He told us all the things we wanted to hear back in 2008. We don’t know who you are or where you’re going. We need someone who can actually get the job done. And you talked about business.

Donald Trump: Well, in Wisconsin …

Scott Walker: You — you — let me finish …

Donald Trump: Excuse me.

Scott Walker:  No, no…

Donald Trump: In Wisconsin, you’re losing $2.2 billion right now.

Scott Walker:  You’re using the talking …

Donald Trump I would do so much better than that.

Scott Walker: Mr. Trump, you’re using the talking points of the Democrats…

Donald Trump: No.

Scott Walker:… and as we all know …

Donald Trump: I’m using facts.

Scott Walker: … You can’t take America into bankruptcy. That’s what’s wrong with the politicians in Washington right now. They think we can take a country into bankruptcy.

Shortly after, Donald Trump took a look at Walker and said, "When the folks of Iowa found out the true facts of the job that you’ve done in Wisconsin, all of the sudden you’ve tubed. He was number one now he’s number six or seven in the polls. Look, we brought it out. You were supposed to make a billion dollars in the state. You’ve lost two point two ($ Billion). You have right now a huge budget deficit. That’s not a Democratic point. That’s a fact, and when the people of Iowa found that out, I went to number one, and you went down." (Easley, Politicususa)

Walker went on to demonstrate his condition as a pathological liar, assuring the debate audience that in Wisconsin he stands up for "working families, family farmers, small business owners and senior citizens."

Walker has specifically targeted the living and prevailing wages and benefits of working families, promoted industrial CAFO-factory farms over family farmers, used a state agency to reward campaign donors over small business and went after the popular SeniorCare, Family Care and IRIS Care.
