Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says President Barack Obama’s Attorney General nominee, Loretta Lynch, is unfit to be the nation’s top lawyer because of her support for executive amnesty and other positions she’s taken, the governor’s spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski tells Breitbart News.
“Given Loretta Lynch’s failure to commit to protect Americans from the president’s lawless executive overreach, that even he said nearly two dozen times, she is not fit to serve as the nation’s Attorney General,” Kukowski said in an email.
Walker is in New Hampshire, the first in the nation primary state, on Friday, meeting with — among others — former Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA)—who narrowly lost to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) in the general election last year.
While Walker doesn’t have a vote in the U.S. Senate, his public opposition to Lynch’s nomination could have massive implications as the vote heads to the Senate floor next week. Even the four Republicans who have stated they intend to support Lynch—Sens. Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Susan Collins (R-ME)—might not want to oppose Walker’s position, along with the position of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), the 2008 GOP presidential nominee.
