Joe Walsh ends Republican primary challenge against Trump

Former US Rep. Joe Walsh is ending his uphill challenge against Donald Trump for the 2020 Republican presidential nomination, after suffering a crushing loss in the Iowa GOP caucuses in which he received only 1% of the vote.

"I am ending my candidacy for president of the United States," Walsh told CNN's John Berman on"New Day.""I got into this because I thought it was really important that there was a Republican -- a Republican -- out there every day calling out this president for how unfit he is."Walsh, a conservative, said he will do whatever he can to stop Trump, including help any of the Democratic candidates get elected.

He was also up against the fundraising arm of Trump's reelection campaign and the Republican National Committee, which have raised millions. And several GOP state party leaders canceled their presidential primaries and caucuses, effectively cutting out Walsh's opportunities to challenge Trump.His candidacy, however, attracted conservative lawyer George Conway, the husband to the President's counselor Kellyanne Conway.
