The treasurer of the Fond du Lac County Republican party says he was surprised and disappointed that governor Scott Walker dropped out of the presidential race. Rohn Bishop was in Waukesha when Walker announced he was a candidate a little more than two months ago. Bishop says he think Walker may have peaked too early and then got bogged down and lost in the shuffle of 17 candidates and a phenomenon called Donald Trump. “Trump gets in the race and really disrupts things and its been the Donald Trump show for three months,” Bishop told AM 1170 WFDL’s Between the Lines program. ‘The way I explain Donald Trump to people is he’s like a drunk guy at a party who is on top of a table swinging his jacket around and above the table you’ve got a chandelier and all the lightbulbs are Republican candidates, and as he’s swinging his jacket he’s blowing them up one at a time. So we’re going to be left with a mess and a passed out Trump and that’s not good for the party.” Bishop says if Walker wants to run for another term he needs to remind independent voters and voters who tend to lean Republican why they voted for him three times in the last four years.
