Trump's Former Primary Opponent Just Challenged Conservatives to Support the Democratic Nominee, Whoever It Is

Make no mistake: Former Congressman Joe Walsh (R-IL) is a Republican.

He was a prominent figure of the Tea Party, he pushed conspiracy theories that former President Barack Obama was from Kenya, and even appeared to promote violent insurrection should then-candidate Donald Trump lose the 2016 presidential race.

Walsh is by no means a moderate, yet he's one of the few Republicans who has publicly and loudly called Trump out over the past couple of years.

He even issued an apology for helping elect Trump last year.


Last summer, Walsh announced that he would be challenging Trump in the 2020 election for President. With Trump's approval rating high within the Republican Party, it was always a longshot and Walsh ended his campaign last week.

That hasn't stopped him from urging voters of all political persuasions to vote for the Democratic nominee, no matter who that person ends up being.

Days after Walsh said he'd rather have a socialist than a dictator in the White House, he posted a tweet urging Conservatives to pledge their vote to the yet-to-be-determined Democratic nominee.

Walsh stressed that "ALL OF US" must come together to stop Trump from serving a second term.

Even with Walsh's conventionally far-Right stances, much of his warnings against Trump have fallen on deaf ears among his fellow Republicans, leading him to refer to the party as "a cult."

He recently implored a Republican crowd to reject Trump, saying:

"If you want four more years of the Donald Trump show..."

At which point the crowd began cheering and chanting "four more years."

Watch below.

But at least some people seem to be heeding Walsh's plea for Conservatives and Libertarians to take his pledge.




That staunch Republican Joe Walsh went from MAGA to endorsing any Democratic candidate running against Trump illustrated the tumult Trump has imposed on the country after only three years.




It will take a massive voter turnout to have a hope of defeating Donald Trump.

Elon Musk Dragged After Showing Off His Juvenile Fake Police Badge Declaring Himself 'The Dogefather'

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely ridiculed after sharing a photo of his fake law enforcement badge—complete with the badge number "69420"—that declares him "The Dogefather," flexing his authority as the leader of the advisory Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is at the center of the ongoing slash-and-burn approach to gutting federal spending.

Musk appeared positively thrilled when he shared the photo—perhaps the most cringey thing he's done, at least thus far, since attaining unprecedented political power.

Howard told Bill Maher that he turned down the role of a lifetime, playing legendary musician Marvin Gaye in a biopic by director Lee Daniels, once he learned of Gaye's sexuality.

Lindsey Graham Sparks Fury After Suggesting That Trump Could Be The Next Pope

After President Donald Trump jokingly told reporters that he'd "like to be pope" following the death of Pope Francis, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham threw himself behind Trump's remarks, which came after Trump already raised the ire of critics for seemingly falling asleep at the Pope's funeral.

Trump said that he himself "would be my number one choice" to be the next pope after he was asked who he’d like to see become the next pontiff. That would never, ever happen—and disrespects the billions of Catholics around the world who are in mourning—but Graham suggested it was a good idea in a post on X.
