Who in Wisconsin would vote for Trump?
Ben Adams, Watertown
His recent rants about turning back the clock to the 50s with a strong addition of autocracy are troubling to say the least. It made me wonder, again, who in Wisconsin would vote for him?
‘Climate change poses great threats,’ so why do we risk it?

Vote ‘yes’ for school referendum; public school funding not keeping up with rate of inflation
