Summary
Senator Bernie Sanders will visit Wisconsin next week for rallies in Kenosha and Altoona, targeting Republican-held congressional districts to boost Democratic turnout before the April 1 state election.
His visit comes as Wisconsin voters prepare to decide control of the state supreme court, a race that will be viewed as an indicator of sentiment about Trump’s first months back in office.
Sanders aims to pressure GOP Representatives Steil and Van Orden on social program cuts and challenge what he calls “the country’s move toward authoritarianism.”
Both Republican congressmen criticized Sanders’ visit, with Van Orden calling him a millionaire who “has never worked an honest day.”
Let’s be clear about this. They are still absolutely being pieces of shit. They don’t mind all the worst stuff that Trump will do, but they don’t like him being so obvious about it.
