Joe Walsh, the flame-throwing conservative radio show host and former Illinois congressman, is moving toward challenging Trump in a Republican primary
“I’ve been really surprised by the amount of anxiousness from people across the spectrum who want this president to have a challenge, because there’s just a real concern that he’s absolutely unfit.”
Walsh has little chance of posing a genuine threat to Trump, who’s light years ahead in fundraising and whose favorability remains strong with Republicans in poll after poll. He was elected in 2010 as part of the Tea Party movement and served one term. Initially a strong backer of Trump, he became a steady critic of the president and called him “a danger to this country.”
When asked on Wednesday whether he could secure financial resources to go up against Trump’s treasure chest, Walsh responded: “Abso-freaking-lutely. There’s a drumbeat from a lot of people out there for somebody who wants to take this on.” Walsh contends that based on conversations he’s had, he could win financial support “all over the spectrum.”
