Who wants to tell him the virus has no problem taking sides. It will choose him quite handily.

He's vaccinated and has an opportunity to share that with his constituents and save lives...and money. Instead of being heroic, he tries to walk some murky middle ground. He doesn't have the courage or moral fiber to be a true leader.

"I'm to weak to own and defend my opinions and choices but I'm perfectly fine accepting a paycheck from taxpayers to make decisions on their options."

Still embarrassing Wisconsin, but now on the national stage \u2014 and with life-threatening consequences, to boot. Mother must be so proud.

What do you think of drunk drivers? \nOh now wouldn\u2019t want to take sides on that one good people on both sides there\u2019s that baby killed sure but then there\u2019s that young white guy had some drinks after a hard day. You need to stop all these gotcha questions I\u2019m just a simple man.

Taking sides. Sure. When there's a raging, deadly pandemic and a vaccine to protect against the worst of it, taking a side against the shot would probably be political malpractice for an elected official. No?
