Yesterday the news broke that Joe Walsh was ‘strongly, strongly considering’ entering the 2020 race to challenge Trump.

Former GOP Rep. Joe Walsh says he is "strongly, strongly considering" entering the 2020 race to challenge President Trump: “He’s a horrible human being. He’s a bad, bad guy.” https://t.co/LR0dYRonVp pic.twitter.com/UuOvyhFcwG — CNN (@CNN) August 22, 2019

And Bette Midler was SO EXCITED, she even called Walsh a patriot.

WOW!! Good for him! Looks like he’s the only patriot in the entire Republican Party!!! https://t.co/i7ELW6oGeH — Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) August 22, 2019

Psst … hey Bette.

Here’s the thing though.

The weirdest thing about King David was his constant bitching about not being allowed to use the n-word https://t.co/QapoIBAhlc pic.twitter.com/JwN7v4Pumu — Jerry Dunleavy (@JerryDunleavy) August 22, 2019

But you know, he’s a patriot and stuff.

Wow.

How absolutely uninformed is she?

You know what, don’t answer that.

Right! Except for the little fact that he’s totally nuts. Read some of his older tweets. — Candy Lamb (@candylamb47) August 23, 2019

Orange man bad and stuff.

Yea, a Dead Beat Dad is just what we need in office. — Proud Deplorable (@LoriBlaney) August 23, 2019

Oh, we left that part out.

Oops.

He is not a good candidate. No. He was a major Trump supporter until just recently. — Lulu #StillWithHer ?? (@Rosemarie4311) August 23, 2019

He's REALLY terrible though — iamsock (@Iamsock) August 22, 2019

This seems to have gone over well with Bette’s fans.

Walsh is not 'in' the party. He's a radio host. He is most known for ducking his child support payments thus name rec is not positive. Frankly, I don't know why Mitt Romney ran for Senator to sit on his hands. — Rosamond California ? (@R0samond) August 23, 2019

Along with the Democrats in 2020, Joe Walsh will lose against Donald Trump. — KayInMaine (@KayInMaine) August 22, 2019

And that’s the reality, Bette.

Sorry, not sorry.
