A former congressman on Wednesday threatened to grab his musket if GOP nominee Donald Trump loses the presidential election.
{mosads}On November 8th, I’m voting for Trump,” former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) tweeted on Wednesday.
“On November 9th, if Trump loses, I’m grabbing my musket.You in?”
Several people responded to and shared the tweet, calling the former congressman an attention-seeker and questioning what exactly he meant with the statement.
Others appeared to mock Walsh.
Walsh has spurred controversy in the past on social media.
In July, the former Illinois representative posted and then deleted a tweet calling for “war” against President Obama in the aftermath of police shootings in Dallas.
“3 Dallas cops killed, 7 wounded. This is now war. Watch out Obama. Watch out black lives matter punks. Real America is coming after you,” he tweeted at the time.
