Gov. Walker previews RNC speech: "A vote for anyone other than Donald Trump is a vote for Hillary"
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Governor Scott Walker is set to deliver a primetime address during the Republican National Convention Wednesday, July 20th.Walker plans to go after Hillary Clinton.One of the lines that he has shared ahead of his speech is that he wouldn't give his iPhone password to Clinton -- let alone access to classified information.The Republican National Convention has had more of an anti-Clinton feel than a pro-Trump feel.Never was that more apparent than Tuesday night, when one speaker suggested she be jailed and former presidential candidate Ben Carson compared her to Lucifer.Walker said he will explicitly endorse Trump in his speech Wednesday night."I`ll talk about that, and I`ll talk about how I firmly believe looking at all that`s at stake -- that a vote for anyone in November other than Donald Trump is a vote for Hillary and I think that`s fundamentally unacceptable," Walker said.Walker's speech is scheduled for 8:23 p.m. central time.Meanwhile, Walker on Wednesday acknowledged something that the polls show -- Wisconsin voters didn't like his bid for president.As he visited several delegations at the RNC Wednesday, Walker said that wasn't to lay the groundwork for another presidential bid."If I’m going to run for anything in the future, it’s for governor, if I choose to do so in 2018," Walker said.
