The Trump campaign dismissed the campaign to primary the president by former Republican congressman Joe Walsh with just one single word.
Walsh has confirmed to ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that he plans to mount a primary challenge, with the support of Never Trumpers like Bill Kristol.
“I’m gonna run for president,” Walsh said. “We’ve got a guy in the White House who is unfit, completely unfit to be president and it stuns me that nobody stepped up.”
When asked about the challenge, Trump’s campaign responded to ABC’s Jon Karl with one single, perfect, word.
“Whatever,” the campaign said.
Walsh, who has previously faced fire for complaining about not being able to use the “n-word” in polite company, is now being bombarded with positive media attention in the hopes that he can draw voters away from the president.
It doesn’t seem like the Trump campaign is very concerned about the “challenge.”
