Joe Walsh: If John McCain were alive, 'he'd be slapping Lindsey Graham upside the head'

WASHINGTON — Joe Walsh, a former GOP congressman from Illinois who is challenging President Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, said that if late Sen. John McCain were still alive "he'd be slapping Lindsey Graham upside the head."

Speaking at the CITIZEN by CNN conference in New York, Walsh was joined by fellow GOP primary contenders, former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford and former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld.

"Shame on Lindsey Graham," Walsh said, "There are so many Republicans in the House and the Senate who have sold their soul to this president. Lindsey is just one of them."

Walsh, who, notably, was backed by the Tea Party during his run for congressional office, used to be a Trump supporter but has since turned critical of the president, including his fiscal decision-making and racial rhetoric. He has called for his impeachment.

How strange it is to be agreeing with Joe Walsh on anything.
