ron-johnson-quibblesSTATEWIDE - Republican Sen. Ron Johnson is sticking with his support of Donald Trump, but he isn't saying his name.

Johnson was asked in Friday's U.S. Senate debate if he was still "100 percent" behind Trump as the Republican nominee. Johnson replied without saying Trump's name. But he says he supports "our Republican nominee" on a number of issues, including securing the border and fighting the Islamic State.

Johnson's Democratic challenger Russ Feingold is issuing a challenge to Johnson to renounce Trump. Feingold says, "This one of those times where you have to be an American first, not a politician running for office."

Trump is campaigning Monday in Wisconsin but Johnson is skipping the event in Green Bay.
