There are many great football players that deserve your admiration why was it on him. He has way to much baggage to lug around. Like many bad guy when before the judge claim, I have see the light spare me. I don’t buy it. He still today lies. We don’t need a liar in congress!

Author Note: An earlier version of this story incorrect stated that Walker was in the NFL Hall of Fame. The error has been corrected to show that he is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Have you read how he became a candidate?

No I haven’t seen an article about that. But I’m sure he was drafted after his Pro-Trump speech during the 2020 GOP Convention. I’ll check online for the origin story.

This is such a smart piece and thank you for this. The whole Herschel Walker story makes me sad as much as it makes me mad. So much hypocrisy and manipulation of a damaged man so obviously unfit for office.

It boggles the mind. I hadn’t thought much about the manipulation aspect, but of course that’s there too. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. I appreciate it.

Thank you! If this were Tennessee, it would be a pea-picking heart. That’s what old Tennessee Ernie Ford used to say.

There’s a ton of negative advertising about him here, which seems to have helped rather than hurt his poll numbers. Thanks for reading and weighing in. Much appreciated.
