Former U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) has ended his primary campaign against President Trump for the Republican Party's 2020 presidential nomination, after receiving just one percent of the vote in the Iowa caucuses.

Walsh announced the end of his longshot campaign on CNN's "New Day."

Walsh ran unopposed in the Republican primary on March 20, 2012. He was defeated by Tammy Duckworth (D) in the general election on November 6, 2012.
