Joe Walsh: Trump Attacking Election System Is an ‘Act of a Traitor’

TRANSCRIPT:

WALSH: "We can’t gloss over this. And I’m so glad you brought this up. That’s an attack on our democracy. I mean, we have to call that for what it is. That’s an attack on our democracy. Donald Trump is attacking our election system. He’s attacking our very system, our democratic institutions. That’s an act of a traitor. 'Either I win or it will be stolen from me.' To say that before an election, Jessica, anyone who says that, any candidate — and I've been a candidate — any candidate who says to voters, 'Either I’m gonna win or the other side’s going to cheat,' those are the words of a traitor, a traitor to this country. And Jessica, what makes me so sad, having come from Trump world, and I voted for Trump in 2016 and I still talk to Trump’s supporters every day, as you said, Jessica, they’ve internalized this. They’ve lost faith in our election systems. And even worse, like, they now think that they've been cheated in life. Trump tells them every day that they're victims and everything’s rigged against them. This is so dangerous and it’s so un-American."
