Staff Reports
Supporters of former President Donald Trump have risen up in Wisconsin, feeling like they’ve been left out in the cold. They’ve managed to collect over 10,000 signatures to boot out their own Republican leader, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, and boy are they fired up!
Robin Vos May just be gone if this recall works and hope it does. Wisconsin can do better. https://t.co/6lJfLPBvp7

These loyal supporters are fed up with Vos sticking to his principles and refusing to bend the knee to Trump. They’re revving their engines and getting ready to file the recall petition, and boy do they have the numbers to make it happen.
Matt Snorek, the mastermind behind the campaign, is calling the shots and making it clear that they want Vos out and someone new in. They’re demanding fresh blood, new ideas, and someone who’s ready to march to the beat of Trump’s drum.
But Vos, who’s been holding down the fort as state speaker since 2013, ain’t takin’ this lying down. He’s brushing off this whole shebang as a big waste of time and money. He’s been about as welcoming to purebred Trumpism as a snowplow in July and has been a stone wall against any attempts to overturn Biden’s win or impeach those election officials.
Sure, Biden only won the Badger State by a whisker – about 21,000 votes give or take – but he’s managed to fend off everything thrown at him. Recounts, audits, you name it. He’s like the Hulk, just a whole lot less green.
And if that ain’t enough political drama for you, the state Supreme Court is playing hardball, shooting down Governor Tony Evers’ attempts to figure out if the new legislative district maps even apply to upcoming elections. That’s a curveball that could play a huge role in whether the signatures collected from Vos’ new stomping grounds actually count.
Vos is gearing up for the fight of his life, assembling a crack team to comb through every single signature and make sure the whole kit and caboodle is on the level.
And if this whole shindig proves to be on the up and up, we might just see a recall election as soon as the summertime. Talk about fireworks! And if a recall election does indeed go down, it would open up a wild and woolly free-for-all as any old Tom, Dick, or Harry could throw their hat into the ring and take a swing at Vos’ title. Holy moly, what a hootenanny that would be!
