As he proved with his quick flameout in the GOP primary, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is not exactly the most astute or talented politician to ever appear on the national scene. In fact, he’s a major loser who seems to have no idea how to run a campaign.
Case in point: Walker thought it would be a great idea to post this message on Twitter:
If you like the past 8 years, vote @HillaryClinton. pic.twitter.com/cQEtIgPsEz
— Scott Walker (@ScottWalker) November 1, 2016
But when you consider that the President currently has an approval rating of 52 percent and Clinton is more popular than Trump in any poll you care to look at, Walker’s tweet had the unintended consequence of backfiring on him and the other residents on the social media site let Scottie boy have it:

A bit of advice, Governor Walker: You, much like Donald Trump, need to stay the hell off of Twitter.
