Gov. Scott Walker Was Asked if He Believes Obama Loves America. You’ll Love How He Responded

The media is desperate to destroy the nascent presidential campaign of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. This week the media tried to drag Walker into the comments by former Mayor Rudy Giuliani who said that Obama isn’t patriotic. His reply showed how smart he really is… and why the media hates him even more.

So, they asked Walker[1] what he thought about what Giuliani said. Shrewdly, Walker didn’t bite on the media’s attempt to attack him by proxy.

The Republican was asked if former New York City Mayor Giuliani was out of line saying he doesn’t believe President Obama loves America.

In an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Friday, Walker said “no.”

“I’ve said repeatedly that (Giuliani) can speak for himself,” Walker told the paper regarding the former mayor’s statements at a Walker fundraiser earlier this week. “The president can defend that.”

Then the big follow-up: “Do you think the president loves America?”

The possible 2016 White House candidate said he’s never asked the president about it.

“I assume most people in this country love America. And to me I don’t think it’s worth getting into the battle over whether he does or he doesn’t,” Walker told the Journal Sentinel. “He can handle that himself. I know I do. And I know there are great people in this country who love this country and who … feel this country’s exceptional and it doesn’t necessarily align by party. I think there are Republicans and Democrats and plenty of people in between. I’ve never asked the president so I don’t really know what his opinions are on that one way or another.”

Walker — who’s in Washington for a weekend meeting of governors — told The Associated Press: “You should ask the president what he thinks about America.”

Yeah, Walker is a smart guy!
