Scott Walker Salutes His Mother](/video/t8h2fI4X/) ### Gov. Scott Walker Salutes His Mother --- ## Transcript Six years ago, I remember a reporter asked us in the midst of all the protests in our capital, a reporter asked me, don't the protesters have a right to be heard? I said, absolutely. They absolutely have a right to be heard. This is America. Anybody can say or do what they want about the government. They can challenge the government, no matter who's in power. But I then said to that same reporter that I wasn't gonna let the noise of the protestors drown out the voices of the majority of people who had elected us to do the things that we were gonna do. It was two weeks ago tomorrow that I saw the video of protestors trying to stop the new US Secretary of Education. From going into a public school just up the way in the District of Columbia. And so, I called Betsy DeVos who's a good friend of mine and I said, you know what? Been there, done that. [ LAUGH ] You might remember the midst of our protest, the protesters as outrageous and radical as they were. They literally glued the door shut To an elementary school where I was gonna come and read to the children. Now the good news is that school was not to be deterred. They actually took the doors off the hinges and we were able to read to the kids. [ APPLAUSE ] But it was a vivid reminder about what we learned in Wisconsin. And that is to do what you said you were gonna do. To go big, to go bold, to actually follow through on the promises you made throughout a campaign. [ APPLAUSE ] It's not only conservatives wand Republicans who like that, but what we found in Wisconsin is that Independents and, yes, even some discerning Democrats like it when you do the things you say you're gonna do. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Scott Walker Advises Republicans To Ignore Protestors ","description":"Wisconsin Gov.
