Former President Donald Trump criticized Democrats for the 'biggest tax hike in history' as he condemned Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act while at a Wisconsin Rally.
Speaking to a crowd in Waukesha on Friday, Trump gave his endorsement to Tim Michels, a U.S. Army veteran, as the Republican candidate for governor of the state while taking aim at Democrats and GOP opponents.
Trump said, referring to the Inflation Reduction Act. 'And they are working feverishly to pile on more regulations at levels never seen before. You're going to have regulations like nobody's ever seen before.'
In the negotiations for the deal, Trump claimed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell got 'taken for a ride,' by moderate Democratic Senator Joe Manchin, who finally endorsed the deal.
'Joe Manchin has totally sold out West Virginia, what he's done to that state is disgraceful,' Trump said, 'and I told the old broken crow, Mitch McConnell, that this was going to happen.'

After blasting those at the national level, Trump then went after Michels' primary opponent, Rebecca Kleefisch, who is backed by his former running mate Mike Pence.
Trump called Kleefisch 'a career politician and a political insider. I´ve known her for a long time. She´s the handpicked candidate of the failed establishment, the RINOs.'
