Do you really turn over the President's statewide re-election bid to a Republican incumbent in that state

who'd just just lost his own re-election bid by a few thousand votes out of millions?
Do you really pin your hopes on strategery overseen by the same politician who'd said "the eagle has landed" when Foxconn made its crash-landing in Mt. Pleasant.
Or who blew through millions of dollars in a 71-day backflip out of the GOP's 2016 presidential race before a single vote for a single caucus delegate had been cast in Iowa?
Walker's campaign reported raising $7.4 million but spent almost as much during the 71 days he was in the race, one of the shortest presidential campaigns in modern history.
Spending, especially salaries on a staff that ballooned to 90 people, doomed the Walker campaign. The filing shows that several top staffers, including Walker's campaign manager, a spokeswoman, and operations director, had more than $200,000 a year salaries.
The answer to "Who lost Wisconsin?," or any election, is ultimately "the losing candidate," but since Trump is famous for never taking responsibility for anything, I wonder why it's taking him so long to throw shade at the convenient scapegoat who'd been right with him
