Scott Walker Is Etch-A-Sketching Again …

“REPUBLICAN” CANDIDATE TAKES THREE POSITIONS ON IMMIGRATION … IN ONE WEEK

|| By FITSNEWS || Wisconsin governor Scott Walker will roll out his foreign policy agenda at a speech in Charleston, S.C. this week.  And yes … here’s hoping it will be a bit more consistent than his evolving position on immigration.

Over the past week, Walker has taken multiple different positions – and non-positions – on the birthright citizenship (a.k.a. “anchor baby“) debate.

Asked by NBC last week if he supported ending birthright citizenship – part of the comprehensive immigration reform plan rolled out by GOP frontrunner Donald Trump – Walker answered in the affirmative.

“Yeah, to me it’s about enforcing the laws in this country,” he said.  “And I’ve been very clear, I think you enforce the laws, and I think it’s important to send a message that we’re going to enforce the laws, no matter how people come here we’re going to enforce the laws.”

Days later, though, Walker told CNBC he wasn’t going to weigh in on the debate “one way or the other.”

But then he did weigh in … again.

“No,” he said, when asked by ABC News whether he had any plans to repeal or alter the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Wow …

That’s quite an evolution …

We noted a few months ago that Walker had a “Mitt Romney problem,” referring to the 2012 GOP nominee who was constantly changing his positions (earning him the nickname “Etch-A-Sketch“).

“This cuts deeper than specific issues … it’s about a pattern,” we wrote.

Here’s more from that piece …

Walker – one of the early “Republican” frontrunners – needs to be very careful moving forward.  “Flip-flopper” is a terrible label to have, and even if he does win the GOP nomination it could wind up haunting him in general election campaign (as it haunted Romney).  More immediately, Walker certainly doesn’t want to be equated with Romney when he heads to early-voting South Carolina, a state which has consistently rejected the liberal Massachusetts politician.

Oops.

Walker’s vacillation stands in stark contrast to Trump’s boldness on this issue.  And again, forget the issue for a moment … it’s all about consistency.

Agree or disagree with Trump, there’s no secret where he stands on the issue (just as there’s no secret he’s driving the debate).

Walker?  He comes off looking like a typical politician …

The Koch brothers have been busy and have been unavailable to return his calls. So he does not know what he is supposed to do.

Here is the answer, Scott. You should change the 14th Amendment to say a US Citizen is any child born to parents who are both US citizens. That ends the anchor baby problem and eliminates three of your rivals; Namely, Piyush (Bobby) Jindal; Rafael (Tedd) Cruz; and Marco Antonio Rubio.

It should also be a requirement that people put their “real” names on the ballots in the primaries and president elections, not their fake names.

Yet FITS is in the tank for the biggest flip-flopper in the race, Chump. Heks the King of Crony Capitalism, and supported single payer, amnesty, higher taxes, bigger government, praised Obama, both Clintons, given them both money, and a variety of other Democrat issues. Also, we learnedover the weekend that Chump is going to take big money donor cash, has FIVE Super Pac’s, and spoke recently his Super PAC fundraiser.

FITS and Chump were for flip-flopping, before they were against it.

He is running on ONE issue-IMMIGRATION.

He will successfully move the Republican Party away from amnesty and a path to citizenship for illegals. A Wall.
He is doing this country a great service and as a bonus it destroys the Democrat party.

He’s successfully sucking the wingnuts and blatant racists out of the party. Just like he’s supposed to. The GOP knows they need to ditch the crazies if they have any chance of getting on the White House again. Unless some else appears, be prepared for a Bush/? GOP ticket. Enjoy.

Walker has not “set the world on fire” during this early election season. There have been several other Republican candidates who have found it hard to get political traction. It is attributable to Trump, he can’t stay away from prime time and the front page. Many Republican candidates are suffering the same fate. There’s only so much space on the front page and limited hours available in prime time, and Trump is getting most of it.
Then you can also throw in the Hillary/Biden/Sanders fiasco and you almost have to commit treason, if you are a Republican, to get much press or play.
