Meet Scott Wagner, Pennsylvania’s Blue Collar Republican

State Sen Scott Wagner, Republican frontrunner in the Pennsylvania gubernatorial contest has established a reputation as a brash and aggressive outsider bent on bringing a CEO’s efficiency to Harrisburg. Wagner, who owns and operates a $70 million dollar-a-year trash collection empire, styles himself in the image of President Donald Trump, insisting “he wants to make Pennsylvania greater again.”

The 62-year-old self described “serial entrepreneur,” who told reporters he bought 20,000 Trump lawn signs in the summer of 2016, opened his business at just 20 years old with nothing more that a high school diploma. It is this record Wagner argues lends him the credibility to speak to issues — like the skilled labor shortage and over enrollment in college —and be taken seriously in a way that escapes many of the former bankers and lawyers who fill out the ranks of the Republican party.
