    Default Herschel Walker Carpetbagger

    A candidate who is running for the US Senate from Georgia, lives in Texas:

    Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Herschel Walker is the beneficiary of a tax break meant for permanent Texas residents—a possible violation of both Texas law and residency rules for voting and political candidacy in Georgia, CNN reported Wednesday.
    Records reviewed by the network show Walker benefited from Texas' homestead tax exemption, shaving approximately $1,200 off his 2021 tax bill on his $3 million home in the Dallas-Ft. Worth suburb of Westlake. The Texas Tribune reports the former NFL star is expected to apply for the discount again this year, and would likely save about $1,500.

    Reacting to the report, incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock—who will face Walker in a December 6 runoff after neither candidate received 50% of the vote in this month's midterm election—asked on Twitter, "How can Herschel Walker represent Georgians when he doesn't even claim our great state as his primary residence?"

    According to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, "only a homeowner's principal residence qualifies" for the break

    Oooops, he forgot to change that when he “moved” to Georgia, will he stay in Georgia after he loses the election?

    Charles Kuck, a professor at Emory University School of Law in Atlanta, tweeted: "Herschel Walker is a liar, a carpetbagger, and a moron. Please vote responsibly. #VoteWarnock."

    Well, shades of Josh (Hee-) Hawley! He doesn't live in Missouri; he has a McMansion in Virginia just outside DC. Rep. Jack Bergman, our "representative," lives in Louisiana. It seems (R)s don't care if their representative/senator really lives in their state or not. All that matters is the (R).

    I keep coming back to the question how of all the people in the United States and Georgia, why did Republicans think George Dumbya Bush, Donald Trumpf, and Hershel Walker were the best?

    In her case, they had permanently moved to the state of NY. Now what's the next excuse.

    It seems as if all of trump's preferred loons are carpetbaggers.

    None of which matters in the least to Republican voters.

    If a Dem did it, though...

    Because 'best' doesn't matter anymore.

    Even mainstream Republicans admitted when it was apparent that trump was the nominee...'all we need is someone with a hand and a pen'.

    You would think that he would up his game after all these years.

    Clinton was already a Senator from NY when she ran for POTUS.

    Facts don't seem to matter

    He probably saved a lot more than $1,200 by not paying a state income tax.

    I just watched a documentary on the Enron scandal. W,. was up to his ass, covering for "Kenny Boy" (Ken Lay) as president.

    W. was not only a war criminal, but fucking corrupt as the day is long.
