MADISON (WKOW) — Former Governor Tommy Thompson, who earlier this month left his post as interim UW System president, met Thursday with former President Donald Trump in what a source described as a broad conversation about the 2022 campaign season.

Thompson has not ruled out running for governor himself but said he was going to take the month of April to consider his political future before making any decisions.

A Republican source close to Thompson confirmed the former four-term governor was meeting with Trump at the Trump-owned Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.

The source said Thompson was not specifically seeking to land Trump's endorsement should he run for governor but the source noted Thompson would especially stand to benefit from Trump's support since he'd be a late entry into the Republican primary.

Instead, the source maintained Thompson was meeting with Trump to discuss a broader view of Wisconsin politics: the U.S. Senate race where Sen. Ron Johnson is seeking a third term, the governor's race, and what it takes for a GOP candidate to win a statewide contest in Wisconsin.
