MOUNT PLEASANT — Robin Vos appears to have made a complete 180-degree turn on Michael Gableman. In July 2021, Vos called Gableman “well qualified.” On Tuesday, Vos called Gableman “an embarrassment” and indicated he wants to fire Gableman.

This photo of Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, left, and former President Donald Trump was shared on social media by Vos and others after Vos' meeting with Trump on Saturday, Aug. 21, 2021. Vos traveled to meet with Trump after Trump began criticizing Wisconsin's Republican leaders on "election integrity" as they were not supporting his efforts to have the 2020 election overturned. The meeting at the time appeared to smooth things over between Vos and Trump, although the former president is now endorsing a challenger to Vos in Wisconsin Assembly District 63, Adam Steen.
