Former Congressman and all-around reprobate Joe Walsh announced this morning that he plans a challenge to Donald Trump in the 2020 Republican primary.
Walsh has almost as little experience in government as does Mr. Trump, having served only one term in the House of Representatives. While there or shortly after, Walsh racked up a record of scurrilous behavior that even Trump might envy. For instance, during his campaign for an Illinois Senate seat, Walsh mocked his opponent Tammy Duckworth, an Iraq War veteran and double amputee.
Way to stay classy, Republican Party. But from the point of view of Democrats, it's a plus. Any internecine warfare among the far right (Walsh was one of the original Tea Party) helps Democrats, and the country.
