Of all of the leftists who have been melting down after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election, for a few days, Joe Walsh would probably have been graded on the low end of that deranged spectrum. Sure, he was crying, fuming, and gnashing his teeth, but he did urge everyone on Twitter to accept the results of the election. (That was awfully big of him seeing as how it was an absolute blowout.)
But then Trump started naming his Cabinet nominees.
That’s when the good old unhinged Walsh that we know and loathe returned in full force. Specifically, Walsh called the selection of Pete Hegseth — a highly decorated combat veteran with 20 years of military experience — as Defense Secretary a ‘middle finger to everyone who currently services in the U.S. Armed Forces.’
Umm, what?
But Walsh wasn’t done yet. When Trump named Tulsi Gabbard as his DNI, an active member of the Armed Forces who has personally been a victim of illegal targeting and surveillance, Walsh went over to merry old England (via satellite) and eagerly encouraged U.S. allies to turn their backs on America.
I just went on @BBCNews and said America’s allies shouldn’t share their intelligence with us. Because of Trump & Gabbard, no way would I, as an ally, share intelligence with America. I couldn’t believe what I was saying. But here we are.

We wonder if he would say that to Gabbard’s face.
Actually, no. We don’t wonder. We know he would be too cowardly to do that. But he happily undermines the United States on foreign airwaves.
Good thing it’s not up to you

It’s a good thing for America that it’s not up to him. But it’s also good for Walsh that it’s not up to him. If he DID hold any position of responsibility within the government, there’s a word to describe what Walsh just said.
It rhymes with ‘Freezin’.’
Sounds like you’re attempting to collude with foreign countries to overthrow the U.S. and our democracy. Better lawyer up.

Now your hatred of Trump has turned you into a traitor to the nation?

So you’re openly declaring yourself to be an enemy of the United States. Good to know that treason is back in vogue. https://t.co/7tPwEyySNR

The fact that Walsh is a miserable nobody who no one pays attention to is protecting him from any charges he might otherwise face.
But it didn’t protect him from Twitter.
The Biden-Harris administration leaked intelligence from Israel to Iran. But go on. https://t.co/js3OusFSLn

Funny how Walsh never had anything to say about that.
Yet Chinese assets in the White House never bothered you

He never said anything about that either.
But sure, Joe. Gabbard and Trump wanting to clean up corruption in the intelligence agencies is a bridge too far for you.
Leftists like Joe Walsh would gladly sacrifice the security of this nation just to satisfy a political vendetta. They truly are enemies of the American people. https://t.co/Y5Tm2HEvxv

Whether Walsh is a nobody or not, his words to the BBC are truly despicable.
You really are a fraud.

He’s fallen so far from the person who once vowed to march on the Capitol with a musket in defense of Trump.
But it just reveals that he never meant any of that erstwhile ‘patriotism.’ He was just in it for the grift.

So, put this country in harms way because you don’t like the leadership? Wild.

Your arrogance is astonishing.
Your irrelevance is eminent.
Your anti-American behavior is unconscionable.
You’re done, Joe. You did yourself in.
Enjoy the bed you’ve made for yourself.

It’s pathetic. But it makes sense that he would go on a dead legacy media outlet to spew his hateful, seditious rhetoric because those are the only outlets that would allow it or invite him.
Of course the BBC would have this deranged TDS sufferer on to emote wildly. https://t.co/mdcTY2BYiM

“America’s allies shouldn’t share their intelligence with us.”
This turd is willing to see Americans die–because he hates Trump. https://t.co/PsUX3d11Ub

Turd is a great description. A giant turd. A bigger turd than Bill Paxton’s Chet in Weird Science.
The resemblance is uncanny.
What a dickweed. https://t.co/k717cGPwsk

That description fits too.
Joe Walsh is actively campaigning to make America less safe and he actually thinks he’s the good guy here https://t.co/ZPoBjtcZko
— Brendon Leslie (@BrendonLeslie) November 14, 2024
The irony, of course, is that if any American allies are reluctant to trust the United States right now, it is a direct result of the past four years of the Biden-Harris administration, not because of anyone in Trump’s incoming second term.

The good news is that America just rejected Walsh and everyone who thinks like him. Overwhelmingly.
The bad news is that won’t stop them from continuing to try to sabotage the United States.
But we’ll all be here to mock Joe Walsh and anyone like him every time they try it.
