Scott Walker: "There is no such thing as a hypothetical."



As quoted in Scott Walker Finds Secret Cheat Code That Allows Him to Avoid All Campaign Questions.   (New York, 9/8/2015)

On the other hand, Walker spokesperson AshLee Strong doesn't hesitate to talk about hypotheticals.

Here's her email response to TCM as to where Scott Walker stands on Kim Davis.
"Gov. Walker has always believed marriage is between one man and one woman and has consistently said that states should have the right to define marriage under the Constitution. As president, he will enforce the law, which means also protecting the religious liberty of all Americans."  [emphasis added]

Less than a month ago, she outlined 'President Walker's' general economic plan.
"If he were elected president, Governor Walker would work to lower the tax burden, improve take-home pay, and make tax levels competitive for job creators, all with the goal of returning growth to the American economy."  [emphasis added]

And Scott Walker himself has been more than happy to talk hypothetically on occasion.  

Here's as 'as president; statement from a recent Hot Air op-ed piece.
We need to change the tone in America from chants and rallies that fixate on racial division and instead follow the example of the families of the victims of the Charleston shooting, who showed us the best path forward is through unity. As president, that's what I'm going to do to make us a united America once again."  [emphasis added]

In announcing his run for President on July 13, 2015, Walker made it clear what he would do on his first day in the White House.
(1)  We need a President who – on the first day in office – will call on Congress to pass a full repeal of ObamaCare.
(2)  We need a President who will approve the Keystone pipeline on the very first day in office and then seek to level the playing field for all sources of energy.

Just last week, he added another task to his 1st day in office to-do list.
"If you want a president who is going to wait some time even though they know something is wrong today, then he's probably your candidate.  f you want someone who knows today it's a bad deal and is not gonna wait until the folks in Washington tell you it's alright and, who is going to do what’s right immediately on the very first day in office [tearing up the agreement with Iran], then I'm your candidate." 

But, no, he can't possibly address the refugee crisis.
