Judge Schimel, while addressing controversial comments made by Donald Trump, expressed his commitment to appointing judges who honor the Constitution. He noted the mixed reactions to Trump's rhetoric, especially as a father to daughters. At a campaign event in 2016, Schimel was one of the few Wisconsin Republicans to defend Trump following the Access Hollywood tape scandal. As he seeks to regain a conservative majority in the Wisconsin court after a liberal shift in 2023, he hopes to capitalize on the pro-Trump sentiment that helped Trump win the state previously.
I'm the father of two daughters. My daughters look up to me, and I don't like hearing anyone talk that way about women. But Donald Trump will appoint judges who will defend our Constitution and respect our Constitution.
Mr. Schimel spoke up in defense of Donald J. Trump at a campaign event the day after the Access Hollywood recording put Mr. Trump's 2016 presidential bid in jeopardy.
Judge Schimel aims to return a conservative majority to the court after Wisconsin liberals flipped it in 2023, hoping to sustain pro-Trump energy.
