MADISON – President Donald Trump is making his first trip to the Badger State since he won here nearly two years ago, visiting one of the nation’s few battleground congressional districts at a time when his approval among Wisconsin voters is at an all-time low.
The visit comes at a time when the president’s tariffs and recent attacks on Iran have produced gale-force headwinds for Republicans in their effort to preserve their power in Congress and in state government in Wisconsin, an effort made more complicated by the retirements of the Legislature’s two GOP leaders and key members of both houses.
