If the economy is poor then the only advantage he has is being the incumbent. The fact that he's being primaried from the right while being the incumbent is yet another sign of how unpopular he is.

He just playing to his racist base. That's not a winning strategy this time around. It worked last time in part cause blue collar workers and farmers in the rust belt thought he would bring their jobs back. After his policies not only fail to do this but actually make things worse for these industries, his path to victory becomes increasingly unlikely.


You could be right, but I will note Joe Walsh is cray cray.

It could potentially work out, but it's a gamble.
The only way it will work is if China caves and agrees to respect intellectual property, open up Chinese markets, etc. That will not happen. They will wait him out. Either he will cave and we might then mitigate some of the damage being done to the economy, or he will not cave and things will just continue to get worse.

The Chinese know very well how stupid it is to pull this stunt going into an election. They will let him sink his own ship, even if it hurts them short term. Then they'll just deal with the next president the same way they have been dealing with the US for decades.

Walsh won't win the nomination. Neither will any of the other people contemplating running against him in the primary. But historically speaking, when you get primaried as the incumbent it takes a lot of the wind out of your sails and you lose the general.

Yeah but we aren't in normal times. I don't know if someone with TDS pulling a stunt like this will have that big an impact.

Yeah cause Trump is a great negotiater right? lol

Remember his brilliant negotiating tactic of shutting down the govt to get his wall built? Thank God he never caves on his crazy policies or else we wouldn't have such a beautiful border wall.

It always has an impact when people on your own side run against you as the incumbent.

It's also not some crazy stunt based on TDS. The Republicans that are abandoning him see the writing on the wall for their party. They're trying to salvage what is left of their party's image before it's completely destroyed by a sociopath with no principles other than perpetual self-aggrandizement.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is not a thing. It is an attempt by Trump supporters to pathologize all criticism of Trump, so they do not have to defend his indefensible actions.

Nope, it's TDS. Listen to his radio show dude.

Wrong, TDS is definitely a thing. It can sometimes be misdiagnosed, but it is a thing.

No long term sustainability in the trumpers deranged mindset.

I'd rather not.

But he's far from the only one turning on Trump from the right. He's not even the only one who has floated the idea of running against him in the Primary.

Jon Kasich (some CNN interview) has shadow hinted that if Trump's popularity drops enough among Republicans, he would consider challenging Trump and running in 2020 for the spot.

I hope so, he's one of the better Republicans and he's never supported Trump, didn't vote for him in 2016. He'd not be one of the sinking-ship rats bailing when it's convenient.

It's true, the guy has TDS. This is not the yuge thing people think it is. At least not when it comes to Walsh. If you wanna talk about others okay, but with Walsh? It's TDS.
