Scott Walker 'Certainly Wouldn't' Rule Out Governor Or Senate Run In 4 Years

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Ousted Republican Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says he would be interested in running for office again, maybe even for governor in four years.

Walker spoke to The Associated Press on Friday, just three days before he’s replaced by Democratic Gov.-elect Tony Evers.

Walker’s immediate plans are to hit the speaking circuit. He says he will also be President Donald Trump’s chief advocate in Wisconsin.

Walker says it’s likely that Republicans will want a “new face” for the governor’s race in 2022 but “who knows.” Walker says he’s not ruling anything out, including a run for U.S. Senate in 2022.

That seat is currently held by Republican Sen. Ron Johnson, who has said he won’t run for a third term.

Get over yourself Scott. A legend in his own mind.
You smashed Wisconsin and helped lead the stupidity for Michigan and Minnesota as well. Brought the Mid-West back to the 1930's in job creation and fascist thinking. Helped begin the process of wholesale selling the Great Lakes water for corporate profits, and probably cheated too, to appear to turn a beautiful Blue state red. Better dead, than red.
Go the hell away Scott.

I was devastated when Mary Burke lost to this asshole. I was overjoyed when Tony Evers beat him.
