This past October, former hardcore musket-grabbing Trumper turned failed Resistance Republican presidential candidate Joe Walsh marked National Coming Out Day by coming out as a conservative. A “proudly woke” conservative, to be specific.
Politically, I’m a conservative. And I’m woke. Newly woke. Proudly woke. Just means my eyes are now open to basic injustices & inequities. My eyes weren’t always open. But now they are. I think that’s a good thing. And yes, I’m still a conservative.

Apparently he’s still on a real coming-out kick, because yesterday, he wrote a Twitter thread all about his blossoming friendship with Charlotte Clymer, a left-wing activist and trans woman who identifies as a lesbian. That’s the L and the T!
Anyway, apparently the two of them have really hit it off:
.@cmclymer & me, a brief thread:
Yesterday, commenting on the case of the CO graphic designer now in front of SCOTUS, I fired off a careless tweet. A tweet hurtful to many in the LGBTQ community. And @cmclymer respectfully called me out on it. And I’m glad Charlotte did. 1/

Before we post the rest of Walsh’s thread, here’s the incident he’s describing:
Per the SCOTUS case today, I ask this only to spur conversation:
Should the government be able to force a Jewish graphic designer to design invitations to a “The Holocaust was a hoax” party? Or force a Muslim designer to design a “Muhammad was a pedophile” poster?
I say no.

Well, I thought when I appeared on your podcast, we had a great conversation, and now I honestly wonder if you were listening.
So, first of all, comparing LGBTQ people to the trauma of the Holocaust or islamophobic propaganda? Not okay. At all. On many levels.
Moreover…

Faith is a very personal choice, but it is still a choice. It is not something people are born with.
LGBTQ people are born LGBTQ. That is not a choice for us. It is an immutable characteristic.
Denying services to people based on how they're born is always wrong. Always.

Walsh actually had a pretty logical take on the 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis case that’s before the Supreme Court, and because he offended Charlotte Clymer — who regularly tweets heinous things about conservatives — he decided to take it all back and beg for absolution.
Pathetic.
Here’s the rest of his thread:
And the reason @cmclymer was able to RESPECTFULLY call me out is bcuz we’ve developed a friendship. Bcuz she graciously agreed to come on my podcast awhile back to discuss LGBTQ issues. It was a great conversation. We didn’t always agree, but I listened & learned a lot. 2/

He learned so much from Charlotte Clymer!
Joe Walsh certainly hasn’t changed my heart or mind … and I’m guessing he hasn’t changed yours, either.
The important lesson here is that you learned something. https://t.co/L9JYsp8sSu

Oh, he learned something. It just wasn’t the right lesson.
See, what he should have learned is that when your credibility is already six feet under, it’s time to stop digging.
BAHAHAHAHA https://t.co/ML4G8eyPtD

Seriously, how is he not thoroughly embarrassed? How is he comfortable still putting himself out there into the public sphere, where other people can see him?
Note that this new relationship he's forged consists strictly of him groveling for forgiveness

So cringe. It’s just so cringe.
You're just proving how much of a clown you are. https://t.co/00td3AyVg5

Woke Joe Walsh. Amazing.
