During an appearance on MSNBC on Sunday, former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) expressed his extreme dismay with the state of the Republican Party that he has abandoned as he fretted that Donald Trump may once again be elected.
Speaking with host Charles Coleman Jr, the conservative commentator finally exploded with, "Wake the hell up, America!"
With copanelist, GOP strategist Rina Shah, explaining, the GOP needs to get "better people running" to halt the spread of MAGA Republicans and the former president. Walsh jumped in to say the GOP as he knew it will never come back.
"I love Rina, but it's too late," he began before snapping, "Wake the hell up, America!"

Emphasizing, "This is the Republican party," he continued. "I am a hardcore conservative but I opposed Trump. I could never, ever get elected as a Republican again. This is what this party is. It is not going to change, it must be defeated — end of story."
