May be an image of text that says 'First, I want to give glory to God for His grace and blessing in all circumstances. want to congratulate Congressman Tiffany and his supporters for receiving President Trump's endorsement. wish Tom great success in November. If we focus on the people of Wisconsin rather than fighting with one another, we can make Wisconsin the place to be, not just be from. I am proud of the campaign we ran and want to give my sincere thanks to my family and supporters who believe in our message. Our fight to reclaim Wisconsin will on.'
