Joe Walsh, the former Tea Party congressman, right-wing radio host and current Never Trumper, is eyeing a possible move to South Carolina. He says he’s considering a run as a Democratic Senate candidate against Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Walsh, who became a registered Democrat last week, told POLITICO that Democrats have to take a new, asymmetrical approach to their Republican opponents and have to “fucking wake up and begin to do different things.”
“I am seriously considering moving to South Carolina and challenging Lindsey Graham next year, because he’s a piece of shit,” said Walsh, who describes himself as a “conservative” Democrat. “He’s everything that is wrong about our politics, and he’s the worst, most pathetic Trump enabler.”
Walsh would not be the only Democrat in the race if he runs: Dr. Annie Andrews, a progressive, has already announced a campaign for the seat that has been held by Republicans over half a century.
Walsh represented the northwest suburbs of Chicago from 2011 to 2013.
Graham’s last race, when he faced Jaime Harrison, was among the most expensive of its cycle, totaling nearly $200 million. Harrison lost to Graham by 10 percentage points.
