Ex-Republican Joe Walsh On CNN: Most Republicans Want Their Political Opponents 'Destroyed or Killed'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Joe Walsh is a washed-up Illinois politician and a chameleon. He's gone from being a liberal Republican to a hardcore Tea Partier and ardent Trump supporter, to becoming so fiercely anti-Trump that in addition to voting for Joe Biden in 2020, Walsh even announced, as our Tim Graham has noted, that he would vote for a "socialist" over Trump.

So why does CNN regularly invite this loudmouth non-entity onto its air? Because he can be counted on to trash Republicans. On this morning's New Day, co-host Brianna Keilar interviewed Walsh regarding a controversial TV ad from Eric Greitens, who is seeking the Republican nomination for US senator from Missouri.

It's an appalling take after several years of political violence. But Walsh exploited Greitens' misdeed to smear Republicans as a whole. Asked by Keilar whether the ad would hurt Greitens with Republican primary voters, Walsh insisted that it wouldn't, and to the contrary, would actually help him. Why? Because:

"Most Republican voters . . . want their political opponents destroyed or killed."

Funny, I hang out with Republicans here and I don’t run into
folks who wish death on Leftists unless they’ve been severely
anti-US and are already lined up for the grim reaper.

What we wish for is the end of their political career and
negative influence on our nation.

I detested Obama, find Biden mentally ill, and Soros an
out and out traitor. All I wish is for them to be taken
to task legally or simply drop out of the public eye.

Well, leftists make a good argument to meet that outcome.

No, Joe. That’s Democrats. Most Democrats want their political opponents destroyed or killed.

I’d be content with these Marxist dems going to prison for life or deported with no citizenship and no possibility of returning. I hear Venezuela is right up their commie alley.

I think I will try to point out the rough comments as I see them. I do not take them as real threats bc I trust the grumpy old codgers around here. (They remind me of my brothers). But people do occasionally say something over the top re: the hoped for demise of some evil lefty. And basically I can’t promote this site to friends bc of some of the comments posters make. They would be offended even though they vote conservative.
