.WalshFreedom on his new book: 'It wasn’t an easy book for me to write, because I’m a conservative, and I’m basically saying I’d rather have a socialist in the White House than a dictator like Trump.' A conversation with Olivianuzzi

A cynic might look at this and think, Oh duh, of course he was going to use this campaign to sell books and profit! What do you say to that cynic? I decided to run because somebody had to do it and because I wanted to do my part to stop him. I didn’t even consider a book until someone put it in front of me after I announced.

Yes. It’s what makes my voice somewhat unique. I’m not a typical Never Trumper. The populism that got him elected was a big part of my following.Impeachment. It’s been good and bad. Good because it buttresses the case I’m making against Trump; bad because it’s hardened support for him among his hard-core base.
I wish I had Bloomberg’s money, because I truly believe, based on all my conversations on the ground with GOP voters, that they’ve grown exhausted with Trump. Most Republicans are tired of the Donald Trump show, but they don’t know I’m a viable alternative. With more resources, I could make that case.
