Herschel Walker learned well from Trump. Everyone knows he’s lying, and he continues to lie. Dr. Eddie Glaude provides a great perspective.
Herschel Walker is thuggish like Donald Trump.
Herschel Walker clearly is one of former President Trump’s best pupils. He learned well from the way Trump handled the Access Hollywood tape. Deny where he could and spin where he had to while attacking Democrats.
Walker is not qualified to be a senator of the United States. He neither has the intellect nor temperament for the job. He would be an additional Right-Wing hack in the Senate without the capacity for any form of objective discourse or action.
So why did the Republicans choose him? Because Trump wanted a herd of sycophants permeating every part of the government. MSNBC Pundit Dr. Eddie Glaude says it best.
“Herschel Walker is only here because of his name and that he’s a black man running against Raphael Warnock,” Eddie Glaude said. “They’re playing on race so that these people can vote for someone who will implement policies that will negatively impact poor people and vulnerable people. But they don’t have to feel like they’re being racist because they’re voting for a black man. It’s so deeply cynical. The moment we’re in is profoundly dark.”
Dr. Glaude nailed it. Americans better vote in the midterms and beyond. We still have control. We should not cede it willfully.
