Herschel Walker Says There Are 52 States![]() ![]() ![]() https://politicalwire.com/2022/06/22/herschel-walker-says-there-are-52-states/ Herschel Walker Says There Are 52 States June 22, 2022 at 4:36 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Georgia U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker (R) told the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show that there were 52 states in the country while attempting to criticize Stacey Abrams (D) for saying Georgia is “the worst state in the country to live.”
Said Walker: “If you don’t believe in the country, leave and go somewhere else. If it’s the worst state, why are you here? Why don’t you leave ― go to another? There’s, what, 51 more other states that you can go to?”

12. Then we can have enough Dem Senators to actually pass some stuff
like real gun control, and some price controls on oil. That will make GOP heads explode

5. It's probably best to step back and remember when
President Obama said that he visited 57 states when he was on the campaign trail in 2008. There will be plenty of other opportunities to question Walker's intellect during the race.

13. Yeah, true
But Mr. Obama merely mis-spoke. Walker doesn't know anything plus he's a liar.

25. Obama knew he had made mistake. Walker is clueless.
Big difference from a cognitive assessment standpoint.

7. I remember back in 2008 when a physically and emotionally exhausted Barack Obama misspoke at a
rally a day or so before the election, saying there were 52 states. We never heard the end of it with the gqp calling him stupid when they knew it was a slip of the tongue. Walker, on the other hand, seems to genuinely not know there are 50 states. And I'm sure there will be crickets from the Traitor Fascist Party.

21. Very possibly. I've been known to zip right by 36 and 42 when I do my morning wake-up count.
Never miss 27 though, never.

22. He didn't actually say that
But it is a controversy that he doesn't live in Georgia. He has lived in Texas for over a decade.

17. If we count Puerto Rico and DC
There could be 52 states.
But I strongly suspect he's referring to the states of denial and confusion that he and his party support and promote. |

18. could it be because more than one Herschel Walker is doing the counting?
I mean, there could be some overlap there.
(Oh... I hope that doesn't get me in trouble. I don't typically pick on people with mental illness. Walker just makes himself an easy target.) |

23. It helps that the two lesser-known states have names that create a rhyming mnemonic.
Confusion and Delusion.
