Herschel Walker Says Trump is Lying About Asking Him to Run For Senate: Im Mad Hes Taking Credit
Herschel Walker, Georgias Republican nominee for Senate, accused former President Donald Trump of lying about asking him to run.
Walker, the former NFL running back who has been endorsed by Trump, told rapper Killer Mike in a wide-ranging interview on Revolt TV that he did not run for office because Trump asked him to.
One thing that people dont know is President Trump never asked me. I need to tell him that he never asked. I heard it all on television that hes going to ask Herschel, saying Hershel is going to run, Walker said. President Trump never came out and said Herschel, will you run for that Senate seat?'
So, Im mad at him, because he never asked, but hes taking credit that he asked, Walker said.

(58,785 posts)that tRump lost the election, etc. Second least popular candidate position, beat only by "defund the police."
I was really glad to see how it worked out in GA. Now, if only tRump will kindly unendorse him too.

(29,106 posts)His handlers who are much more politically minded are trying to position him away from being a Trump lackey. They have read the writing on the wall and realize that those Trump ties are not that helpful in getting him elected in Georgia.

(61,033 posts)Walker lessened his chances to win a Senate seat even more by alienating trump.
Running for the Senate is not the endgame, Hershel.

(34,914 posts)We're talking about a college drop-out who claims he graduated at the top of his college class, after all. And, that's just the tip of the lying liar ice berg. He might be telling the truth here. He might be lying again. Either way, who cares? Hopefully, this is just the opening salvo of those two going after each other's throats. Here's to their mutual destruction.

so voters see them acting like 4th graders instead of adults.

(47,940 posts)Please tell me this man will never be in the Senate. In Your wisdom, You cannot mean to replace Raphael Warnock with this man. Amen.
(BTW, this was a joke, not a real prayer. And I'm making calls to GA and will continue to do so until they make me choose another state. Just thought I'd clear all that up.)
