NextImg:Leading From Behind: WI Governor Tony Evers Fumbles Response to Weekend Flooding

This writer lives in the Milwaukee, WI area. Over the weekend, we had some pretty heavy rain that led to significant flooding in Southeast Wisconsin.

The situation was so severe that officials canceled the State Fair a day early; cars were submerged in water, and many homes were flooded.

The worst of the deluge came Saturday night.

On Sunday at 6:30 p.m., Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers finally got around to issuing a statement about the flooding:

Waukesha is not on his radar at all.

Yeah. 14 hours late.

The chaos was the point.

Apparently not.

He would have had it ready to go Saturday night.

Yeah, the Democrats told us that's fascist

But it's (D)ifferent when they do it.

You would make a better governor.

Then again, so would a shoe.
