Donald Trump has made clear he will attack Joe Biden unmercifully in order to ensure the election is a choice between him and Joe Biden rather than an up-or-down vote on the presidents handling of the coronavirus.
Scott Walker has a different view, at least when it comes to Trump's chances in the all-important battleground of Wisconsin.
I think it still boils down to a referendum on the president. Theyll beat up on Biden and theyll raise some concerns, said the former two-term Republican governor of Wisconsin, who lost his seat in 2018. But in the end, if people felt good about their health and the state of the economy, Trump will probably carry Wisconsin. If not, Walker said, its much more difficult for the president.
Walker is not alone among swing-state Republicans in his assessment of the presidents political prospects. Interviews with nearly a dozen former governors, members of Congress, and other current and former party leaders revealed widespread apprehension about Trumps standing six months out from the election.

But it's all a Democratic conspiracy. Eric the dumbest Trump said so.
