Joe Walsh: Donald Trump 'Acting Like A Third Grader' In Face Of Russian Hack
Source: Chicagoist
After an uncharacteristically on-point Tweet-storm over the weekend, Walsh appeared on CNN on Monday afternoon with Brooke Baldwin to continue his curious new role as adult-in-the-room. I think (Trumps) acting like a third grader, he said to Baldwin at one point. Maybe a fourth grader, he conceded when pressed. I dont think he fully gets.

Im outraged at the lack of outrage, especially at my side, the Republican side, Walsh said, speaking from Chicago. I get that the countrys divided, by my God, a foreign government interfered with our election. That should piss everybody off. That should especially anger my side.
When asked if he believed if Russias intent was to help Trump win, Walsh said, Oh my gosh, Brooke, theres no debate. It happened, noting that 17 agencies confirmed the interference.

Basically ever since Friday's bombshell report in the Washington Post that intelligence officials confirmed Russian agents had hacked the RNC and DNC in order to sway the election in Trump's favor, Walsh has been on an endless Twitter tirade against the tepid response of so many Republican congressional figures and, of course, the president-elect. (His Twitter call out ended up getting him blocked by Trump, Walsh said in the interview.) As the New York Times' Dave Itzkoff put it, "Woke Joe Walsh is really something to behold."

(57,664 posts)Political interests can bring together people who otherwise have little in common. This saying is adapted from a line in the play The Tempest, by William Shakespeare : Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows. It is spoken by a man who has been shipwrecked and finds himself seeking shelter beside a sleeping monster.

(67,782 posts)....since November 8, everything we've learned about the hacks and interference and what we'll learn, even Republicans will rally together with Democrats and act like real Americans.
We saw it during the Watergate era, and as each day goes on we're seeing more and more of it now.
Trump had it all wrong, we don't need to "Make America Great Again", it's already great and will remain so.
