Conservative radio host and former Illinois US Rep. Joe Walsh will challenge Trump for the Republican presidential nomination in 2020.

"I'm going to run for president," Walsh said on ABC's"This Week," also telling host George Stephanopoulos,"I'm going to do whatever I can. I don't want him to win."Walsh had said Thursday that he was"strongly, strongly considering" entering the race."I'm not trying to be cute or coy. I've told you before -- if somebody's going to get in there and go after him ...

Where Trump lost him, Walsh said, was during the President's news conference with Vladimir Putin at their summit last year in Helsinki, Finland, at which Trump sided with the Russian strongman over his own intelligence community's assessments of Russian interference in the 2016 US election.Walsh isn't the only conservative candidate looking to take on Trump.

Good luck 🥴

Nope

If Joe Walsh gives me the money he intends to spend on his campaign, I promise to give him back half.

He once suggested to secure the borders with moats and alligators

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😂😅😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

If you had any chance as a 'conservative' voice in politics you lost it the moment you bad-mouthed our HEROIC president! Send a resume to CNN, that's all you good for Wash-Out! TRUMP 2020/PATRIOTISM FOREVER!

NO1 REAL RACIST has a better chance going 2 hell THEN trying beat POTUS imagine him calling POTUS names WHEN HE HAS USE out loud racist slurs against blacks POTUS NEVER DID the left just take everything he says & turns it into racist terms LIKE N.Y times ANNOUNCED THEY WILL

CNN sucks

Good

WalshFreedom you lost before you got started lol lol lol lol quit before you embarrass yourself

Yea. Not really 😂 good luck w that)

So you no economics like its more important than every thing ..we are not under your deal

Joe who?

He has as much of a chance at winning as I do. What a colossal waste of money for this guy.

JohnKasich should run

joe who ?

And the bar gets lower

Is he the lesser of 21 evils?

I should believe the cnn narrative.... repeat. 😂

HAAAA HA, HA HAAAA, HA HAAA😖

Save your money joe

He owes years in back child support. Great guy

Walsh/Omarossa 2020 Landslide

Anthony18392503 He’s Romney v2. Just louder and far less wealthy.

Déjà vu all over again!! Nothing burger Walshy boy! Morning_Joe FoxNews davidaxelrod BillKristol HillaryClinton TheView DNC GOP BernieSanders ewarren donlemon BarackObama MSNBC nytimes KYGOP ananavarro ChrisCuomo fredo

He may be despicable but he’s an enemy of my enemy.

YEEEAAAAHHHHH

Bien por él, además está en un país democrático.

Seriously, why?

Poor schmuck.

Lol..

Child Support Fugitive Joe WalshFreedom don’t worry about the country worry about your children! POTUS has the country covered. DeadBeatDaddyWalsh

Well, that's a step in the right direction (quality, intelligence, qualification and capability speaking). If there has to be a Republican in office, it bodes well for the country if they nominate candidates who focus on putting America's interests above self serving narcissism.

Illinois? Enoughsaid Loser

He looks a lot like Jeffrey Epstein.

Just another typical week for CNN

downwithCNN watch tim pool

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

someone please tell the idiot not to waste our time

And his experience is what exactly?

He doesn’t sound like a gem either. Ugh! Get it together GOP and come up with a serious, genuine, respectable candidate.

If you’re a Dem, Rep, or Ind and are anti-Chump, you’d be extremely short sighted to not want to see him “primaried”. Walsh is nutty, but not completely unhinged like chump. I wouldn’t vote for either, but I’d love to see them on a Rep debate stage.

Let’s just go ahead here and take a look at your chance.....

Report for kashmir people

First of all....he’s not a conservative. Second of all....LOL!!

... Why 'Women For Trump' Are Determined To Win 2020 . via YouTube

That’s right be the spoiler for the liberals.

Hope he can play a mean guitar.

at this point..beggars can't be choosers..a bag of potatoes is a better candidate than trump

I could run and get more votes.

Go for it. LOL!

No chance. Trump despite unprecedented opposition and rhetoric from politicians and media alike has made many great decisions for this country. This is a waste of time and effort especially when it helps grow what he says he stands against

CNN you look like Joe Walsh.

You consider that a challenge?

Nope!

No thanks.

New book release?

I liked his music...oh wait? Not that one? Who is this guy? - asking for a resident of Illinois, me.

What? Louie Gohmert wasn't available?

Walsh must b on crack! Latest numbers show POTUSTrump’s approval by Republicans is 87% - 94% range

Finally a Republican with balls!

Haha. He is one of their bests? 😂

The whole tea party movement was stupid. They elected stupid republicans which ended up being RINOs. Hahaha republican voters aren’t that smart

Trump 2020 💙🙌🏾🏳️‍🌈

Good

So, if he wins.. he should finally be able to pay child support...

Didn't he help find missing kids and help solve crimes Oh wrong Welsh

futile attempt at an embarrassing showmanship.🙄

YouGoJoe

Joe whoooooooooooooooooo

Who?

Bring on the debates!

Well, CNN just made a new friend.

All I need is for him not to endorse him trump in the fall. That’s it. Otherwise this is a waste of time

Breaking news: President Trump and Prime Minister Japan announced Trade deal just now!

Wow. Such a hard choice ahead of me now. A continuation of peace and prosperity, or a Liberal Republican crank. Decisions decisions...

BahahahHB

Who? LOL

The money he’s going to spend trying to run against the president he should donate to the homeless. they could use it more because he’s not gonna win

Uhhhh yeah, no.

What a joke!

😂😂😂😂😂

He's a bully and he's coward and somebody needs to call him out! Joe Walsh

Yee!!!!!!😜

Ha

Every Republican is a jerk. Vote only for Democrats.

He has no chance in hell

Why isn't anyone talking about the 5,000,000 fake jobs that were falsely claimed to have been made by Trump's administration during March and april They are fooling you and you love it!! 👇👇

Who cares?

Who?

Hopefully this would help with more intelligent thinking among members of the Republican party and redefine or reaffirm the legacy they want to leave behind when the time comes.

Out crazy Crazy Trump

🐄💨💨💨

So what is your plan on issues. Just to bad mouth Trump is not going to sway one of those 88% away from him. 🤷‍♀️

How this guy is going to climb the mountain!

He wants attention and CNN of course is giving it to him

Joe Walsh: Please do start early and remind us of Trump's countless insane decisions and actions! Maybe the Republican Mice will finally get the guts to come out of their holes?

Maybe he could use some campaign money to pay off his delinquent 6 figure child support debt.

Take trump DOWN!!

Ha! Good luck with that......

The same guy who trashed Obama all the time and pushed conspiracy stories? He and trump are one in the same. 🙄🤮

Japan trade deal made!! Go American Farmers 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸.

Seems like an ordinary average guy

Isn’t it amazing how many republicans develop a spine & a conscience when they become a FORMER. I’m not sure I could trust any republican who doesn’t have the balls/ovaries to speak up before they are either about to leave office or have already left. NoTrust

No, he's not going to challenge Trump. Sure, Joe can 'run'. He can make some speeches. But he has no chance, and he knows it

Epstein stole this guy's Identity and is now running for President.

Whoever he is, he can’t be as delusional as trumpy.

*Neoconservative

Don't spend your own money! WASTE!!

I heard that Joe Walsh will win the Nomination of the new and Great Tea Party and will give the Socialists Democrats the WH SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND THEN HE WILL get a great gift from Bernie run Joe run 🏃‍♀️

😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡

Some people take their TDS further than others. Joe Walsh is one of those people.

Republican clown show.

Should have said “WILL EMBARRASS HIMSELF “

conservative? say what?! Is there a new definition of a conservative that I'm not aware of?

Walsh doesn't have enough mistresses to attract today's republican voter.

After listening to Walsh this morning CNN will have him on 24/7! CNN Fox News

😂😂🤮

Total scumbag seeks to unseat total scumbag. Sounds very America 2019.

This is one where you bring snacks , a lawn chair and look for a good view. Like watching fireworks. But ones that land and burn everything they touch.

👎🏻

Good Luck to Him. But it's EXTREMELY doubtful that He has a chance against President Trump. Trump's GOP will NEVER abandon their Overlord.

This is great

“Former congressman” is generous. One 2 year term. Probably barely left his basement office. He’s merely a twitter celeb.

Big Mouth gator bait filled with Hate ! Cocaine snakehead lurking in a mud bed !

Anyone but trump!

Don't quit your day job !

Better you than trump

I thought Jeffrey Epstein was dead Now hes running for president under a new name WEIRD.

Good luck Joe. It’s tough sledding when you’re irrelevant.

oh dear

No thanks! You couldn't win an election against Beto you don't stand a chance against Trump

Good luck deadbeat, do you still owe child support WalshFreedom ? GOP GOPChairwoman

😂

Lol

Um yeah, good luck with that Joe.

LOL

It means Trump is a fake imposter

And he will lose . . . .

stay home please don't waste your money. instead why don't you help the homeless and the hungry. why don't you back A already great P.O.T.U.S. that seems to get so little help. and want's to do so much good for us. doesn't anyone see it. he is not what the left say he is.

Ok that is funny

I got really excited when I heard this, until I heard it was not Joe Walsh from the Eagles! 😕

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂. Jump on it, CNN — your desperation is getting to be hysterical.

“challenge” lol

He will be CNN’s darling now.

When a tea party nutbag looks like a savior you know your country’s in trouble.

There isn't a single REPUBLICAN that should be elected into office in 2020! ALL have been TRUMP Enablers -or- just like Him so ALL are unworthy of holding office!!!

Wow imagine if you actually debate issues, ask about policy, and don’t make up facts, words as don’t cozy up to dictators... oh and believe in the environment and climate change

Cue armpit farting noises...

Play “Rocky Mountain Way” Man...... I fuckin love that song.

Yawn.

Wow. JoeWalsh is looking rough these days.

😂😂😂

Go for it!

What happened recently in Ukraine presidential election may happen in the GOP and ofcourse in the US presidential election 2020.

Trump is a criminal, con man , bankruptcy artist,etc. It will be interesting to watch Weld and Walsh expose him.

Who?

from Illinois, no thank you.

Proper conservative. Considering the carbuncle across the aisle it seems as though he’s lost his damn mind. Current Democratic candidates constitute the very worst group of politicians in American history. Trump looks a 19th century nobleman by comparison.

Hey CNNPolitics MSNBC NBCNews , are you going to let a possible presidential candidate get way with NOT asking why WalshFreedom sent this tweet out. WOW!!! Where is the “OUTRAGE” regarding “RACISTTWEETS”

So we get GOP Debates right?

Every other Republican hopeful who haven't come out in strongest terms to make their presidential ambitions known have got to do so, just like Joe Walsh has backed up his promise with action. It will be a slap on the Republican party if pres Trump goes unchallenged internally.

Everybody should want someone like joe walsh against President Trump. Walsh has no idea what the american people want hes a loser

I wonder if his past legal issues will be brought up lol

PoliDiceTweets Finally. I still don’t like him, but at least he has the balls to stand up to the wannabe fascist

Loose cannon

Losing battle!

The trumpanzees hilariously think Walsh is serious about winning. Walsh is serious about a Dem winning. This frees him to absolutely wreck shop for months on end, opening an attack on trump’s other flank (yuck). Should be fun.

Go for it!

yep another that wastes time and money

Fabulous. Split that conservative vote! Love it!!!

Amazing how the liberal media keeps trying to hide stupid Biden.

NHL hij n864fi6

This is going to be fun. Trump twitter meltdown coming

You know, if he wants to do that more power to him. But in MHO, trading one nutcase for another isn't progress. I'm old enough to remember his stint (or stench) in congress. One of the foulest of the teabaggin' klan.

No one cares.

A 'victory' for Joe will be to make the case, TO INDEPENDENTS, that Trump's actions have been bad for the economy. Tremendous fodder for the Dem going against Trump in the general.

Justaboutanyonebuttrump

Trump is not yet tired of winning. He is just asking to be defeated.

2019 Wife Swap🤣😂🤣😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

GREAT! If only for the past Obama tweets!!

Did he ever pay his back child support? $117K? Like Avenatti he is nothing but an attention seeker. This is a scam.

Who? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Laughable waist of time. This is the same dude that always peed his pants in kindergarten, middle school, High School and junior college. Embarrassing moments don’t bother him.

What a joke. This will be trump punching bag in prep against the dem nominee

Good on Good, bringing the wayward 30% of conservatism back to economic sanity, from the Trump mental illness

I suppose he hasn't got a snowball in hells chance but just to piss DJT off, even for a second, makes it all worthwhile

What a joke. Lmao

get back to me when he actually does. Now he just farting in the wind in your general direction.

Politician from Illinois? Ugh.

Peter Fonda will vote for Joe Walsh.

He Walsh is so well known, I thought it was Joe Walsh the rocker.

That's a good one 😂

cnn will give him so much coverage it will backfire and he will end up winning a different race.... like congress

um, no.

PersianKiss

Lol

The man who helped bring us Trump, has a change of heart, and now feels solely qualified to fix it. What a putz.

You should be challenging him to look for a Psychiatrist 😂😂😂🥴🥴 How are you even taking this guy seriously anymore? 😂😂😂

good last name , but it’s a media grab

no more radio hosts and no more GOP. I want this over. its been nothing but chaos since 2016.

Someone needs attention. JoeWalsh just go to a strip club.

Who?

No idea who he is, could be a serial killer, but he has my vote.

Any republicans against Trump will get my vote!

Let the party implosion continue

That’s awesome 👍 because Trump is.....

Who? What a joke. Just a distraction.

Just trying to raise his profile using Trump. Loser.

This is where the fun begins

Kudos to this courageous man! 📈 🔨🏁🏆✌

He will loose

Do yourselves a favor! GoogleAndrewYang is a better idea! Problem solved! MAGA (Make America Great Andrew) yanggang

Joe Walsh? From the Eagles? Who's this dude?

Great. Republicans need to put up alternatives to Trump and run him out of D.C.

Lmfao. Haha. Who is this douche

Good. I might not agree with this man on politics but I can at least not be ashamed to call him President if he wins. He seems sane, not a sexual assaulter & not a Putin/Hitler fan so Go Joe Walsh! Kick Crazy Pants Out for all of us.

He has said many controversial things in the past. Just because he is coming out against Trump, doesn't mean he is a good guy.

Another Republican ultra-conservative

His account is now Twitter banned. 😁😁😁
