Trump throws weight behind judge in critical election

Washington: President Donald Trump, fresh from railing against “partisan” judges thwarting his agenda, threw his weight Sunday behind a Republican running for an open spot on the supreme court of the politically heavyweight state of Wisconsin.

Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform that the race for the seat on Wisconsin’s top court is “really big and important” and “could have much to do with the future of our Country.”

He called on voters there to embrace Republican Brad Schimel over opponent Susan Crawford. Using language reminiscent of his own race against Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, Trump called Crawford a “Radical Left Democrat.”

He claimed Crawford is “insistent on bringing hardened CRIMINALS, that we removed to far away places, back into our Country, allowing men into women’s sports, Open Borders.”
