Underwood has yet to respond to the backlash she has received but Walsh has taken full notice of her viral fame thanks to him.

He followed up and tweeted: “How long before Carrie Underwood officially renounces me? I give it 12 hours, tops, I could be wrong though. I’m basing this on our general experience with celebrities who face public backlash from the left. In fairness, she could be the outlier. Time will tell.”
