Mr. H. Walker, just out of curiosity, please explain to me how you can support a man who is responsible for over 500,000 deaths due to the COV-19, the destruction at the White House in January 6, 2021 and refusing to accept the people decision of electing of President Biden . Also the amount of money he is and have spent in recounting and reinvestigate the the Elections over different states. During his term as President there was a lot of racism and hatred shown which he chose to ignore and is still going on. The former President knew of the disease while it was still overseas and instead of him investigating and working with CDC to come up with a plan to stop it from spreading through our country, he told the PUBLIC that it was like the flu and would not last long. He also told people to drink bleach and other stupid things. The former President has committed crime after crime while in the White House and was not ashamed of it as a matter of fact bragged on it. I don’t understand how you and the others can support a MAN WHO HAS TORN THIS COUNTRY APART and still interacting in a destructive way.
He is also the reason Gov. Kemp had suppressed our voting rights, redrew maps for the State of Georgia in hopes to turn Georgia back to red. I don’t know if you remember Dr. Martin Luther King and the Civil Right Days, but I am sure your parents do. Have you ever wondered why you were asked to run for the Senate against the person who is in there now It is time NOW for us to stick together and stop allowing other people to divide us and separate us. Please don’t do this, it is hurting all of the people in Georgia and I don’t think you want that. You are worth over $14 million you don’t have anything to worry about. There are people out here with no food, home or job because of this pandemic, which never should have happened. Please rethink and fight for our rights.
A.D sounds like a man with a news paper. Your all over the place with your propaganda. Look at your lame President you and the media ignore. Your a joke! Carry on Herschel…
For myself. I just like to hear Walker speak and make since. That 1/4 if he able to do that. The other 3/4 is learning win, air, do not need to hitch ride to a certain designation.
I don’t know where Herschel Walker get his information but he is highly misinformed making all those mistakes in his statements. Dr. Martin Luther King is probably wondering what is going on. Herschel needs many lessons in American History. He should have had a tutor in college. He should have done research before he was coerced into running for office. Hopefully, he will return to University of Georgia and finish his education. Money would not be an obstacle for him.
