He’s a grandstanding jerkoff with a crappy radio show that almost no one listens to.

Ignore him.

Running against Trump I doubt that he has very many friends that he can get a little help from.

He’s an opportunist in the employ of the Cheap Labor Express.

Same as Flimsey Grahamnesty but dumber.

Pitiful attempt to try and boost ratings. Non-event.
He will not make it on the ballot in many states and Trump really does not have any obligation to debate any R challengers.

Maybe Billy Joe Walsh (William Joseph Walsh) should visit the Tallahatchie Bridge.

Joe has no idea what it is to be a working class American struggling with a mortgage.

In fact, he has a mansion and does not even know the price and he has never even been there, but they tell him it’s nice.

I had to stop listening to him. It's like listening to CNN now. He also hates Hannity and anyone else who is supportive of the President. I can't get any inspiration from him.

I think Joe was and is someone who was always seeking some - in his eyes, political opportunity. I think that, and not any Conservative principles, is how he once became a Trump supporter. And he had so much political acumen he lost his one-term seat in Congress to a Democrat. Now he feels the media and the Dims attacks on Trumps are providing him a new opportunity. I think his depth of political acumen and intellect is very small.

Trump the way Trump can do the least for him is to say nothing about him.

I don’t know how he can possible pull this off while touring with the Eagles as much as he does.

Oh...? Wait, never mind then...

If you own or manage a hotel, I strongly advise that you not let him stay in your hotel.

“And he had so much political acumen he lost his one-term seat in Congress to a Democrat.”

Walsh was such an ass that in the GOP wave election which saw him eke out a victory the Republican party largely ignored him and did not assist his campaign. Following redistricting, the Democratic legislature gerrymandered his district to make it more friendly for Tammy Duckworth, who moved in to make the race.

It did not help that Walsh was such a kook either. Illinois Republicans did little or nothing to save his seat when the Democrats remapped their way to a Congressional majority in 2012.
