WI failed budget surplus deal

We honed in on a couple of President Donald Trump's pet projects and rehashed the state's failed budget surplus deal with Citizen Action of Wisconsin's Robert Kraig. 

It's hard to pick any one thing when it comes to the Trump administration, but we narrowed it down to these things:
Trump's $1.778 billion (what we call) "slush fund"
The $1 billion in taxpayer dollars for a ballroom 
The MMA fight on the White House lawn
The Iran war and prices

The second half of the show consisted of the failed deal between Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers and the top two Republicans in the Legislature to spend the state's $2 billion budget surplus, and all the factors that have come since. That includes the flaws in a Marquette Law School poll showing 80% agreeing with the deal, the analysis since showing it would have put the state in a budget deficit and how Republican Robin Vos wants Evers to call another special session to get it done.

Roughly, the deal consisted of one year of special education funding and property tax relief, plus $300 checks and no taxes on tips/overtime.
