After teasing us for a little bit it looks like former congressman Joe Walsh is absolutely going to run against President Trump for the Republican primary.
BREAKING: “I’m going to run for president,” former Republican Tea Party congressman Joe Walsh announces on @ThisweekABC.
“We’ve got a guy in the White House who is unfit, completely unfit to be president and it stuns me that nobody stepped up” https://t.co/P6iz1j1VA4 pic.twitter.com/0Sct3l7zEc

It is important to note that this is part of Bill Kristol’s diabolical plan to replace Trump, but he doesn’t think there’s a way to actually defeat him in the primary. He has literally said that the only reason to challenge Trump is to weaken him so that a Democrat can finish him off.
“I’m running because he’s unfit, somebody needs to step up and there needs to be an alternative. The country is sick of this guy’s tantrum, he’s a child,” Joe Walsh tells @GStephanopoulos when asked about GOP support for Trump https://t.co/bLWbG7aCAU pic.twitter.com/KeFCo7sJmL

So even though Walsh is the longest of longshots to win the primary, even if he loses, he could do the damage needed to hurt Trump for the final battle.
“It should be looked at,” Joe Walsh says when asked if the 25th Amendment should be invoked
“We’ve never had a situation like this. You can’t believe a word he says … he’s nuts, he’s erratic, he’s cruel, he stokes bigotry,” Walsh says about Pres. Trump https://t.co/bLWbG7aCAU pic.twitter.com/WOfunIizo4
