GET ME REWRITE: Conservative, anti-abortion, pro-insurrection GOP Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel plays a round of Rich Man Poor Man Beggarman Thief

 

Headline:  Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 2/3/2025

Guy has a very odd sense of humor

Now it's coming to light that the former Republican attorney general likes to joke that he regularly visits the hardware store for knee pads for when he hits up supporters.

"I have to invest in knee pads," Schimel told members of the 2nd Congressional District Republican Party on June 3. "You know, I've got to go to Menards, invest in knee pads, to crawl around begging people, ‘Please, please, please, consider getting involved and consider supporting my race.'"
