Herschel Walker said he knew John Wayne

Did you see Herschel's Cracker Jack prize? He got himself a 'Special Deputy' card, laminated and everything. Of course that means Herschel was in law enforcement. I know I'll sleep better at night. Maybe he can team up with Sheriff Woody.

TV Debate Turns Into ‘SNL’ Skit: Herschel Walker Flashes “Prop” Badge When His False Claims He “Worked In Law Enforcement” Come Up


At one point Walker, who is backed by former president Donald Trump, claimed Senator Warnock has “empowered criminals to think they’re more powerful than the police.”

Warnock fired back, “We will see time and time again tonight, as we’ve already seen, that my opponent has a problem with the truth.”

As the crowd cheered, Warnock continued, “One thing I have not done, I’ve never pretended to be a police officer.” It was a reference to Walker’s repeated — and false — claims that he “worked in law enforcement” or had trained with the FBI.

Then, in a made-for-‘SNL’ moment, Walker responded by pulling out what the debate moderator called a “prop” badge and claimed, “I am work with many police officers.”


The resulting laughter from the audience made the scene all the more like an SNL skit.

You are not only a partisan hack, you are dumber than fuck. Just sayin.
 
Sorry, Earl. You're on ignore for a major douche nozzle. I will not be reading any of your posts, ever again.
 
Walker is NOT a police officer. He has never been an FBI agent. His "badge" is a prop, or a trophy, not a real badge.

If he had just said he has been given an honorary badge in recognition of charitable work, that would have been true. He could have left it at that, and been OK. Instead, he has lied and lied... and lied again. Or hopefully he has lied. If he is not lying, he is so delusional he cannot tell the truth.

Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for a U.S. Senate seat in Georgia, has insisted the police badge he flashed during his debate Friday against Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock is real, even though there’s no evidence he’s ever worked in law enforcement.

“That’s a badge that I was given by a police officer and I do have the badge I carry with me all the time. It’s a real badge. It’s not a fake badge,” Walker told NBC’s Kristen Welker, according to a transcript of the interview sent to HuffPost.

Walker, a former football star, pulled out the badge on Friday after his opponent called him out for falsely claiming in the past that he had worked in law enforcement. It earned him a rebuke from a moderator for using a prop, which is against the rules.

During NBC’s interview, which airs Monday on “Today,” Walker was asked where he got the badge.

The transcript of his response read:

“This badge is from um - this badge. I have badges from all over the- all over Georgia, even from Chatham County. I had to wait- wait- I had from Chatham County which is a county, which is a county, uh, which is a county from- *SHOWS BADGE* oh I have it upside down. Right, which is a county from where Senator Warnock is from. I have an honorary Sheriff badge for that county with limited rights.”

“Where is this one from?” Welker pressed.

“This is from my hometown,” the Republican answered. “From the sheriff from Johnson County, which is a legit badge.”

“Everyone can make fun, but this badge give me the right ... If anything happened in this county. I have the right to work with the police getting things done,” he insisted. “People that don’t know that. I’ve been working with law enforcement for years. I do training program but they get to get credit for it. I do a program, a leadership program. I do health and wellness programs. I visit prisons.”

Honorary badges do not give arresting authority. Welker noted that the National Sheriffs Association has said that an honorary badge is “for the trophy case.”

But Walker insisted that was “totally not true.”


Walker claimed in 2019 that he was once an FBI agent and said on multiple other occasions that he had worked in law enforcement. Multiple fact checks have found that to be false.

In August, he posted an image of an honorary deputy sheriff card reportedly given to him by the Cobb County Sheriff’s Office, saying he was “proud to serve the blue as an honorary agent.” It sparked widespread mockery.

The badge was given to him in recognition of community service work he had done with the Cobb County sheriff’s department, his campaign spokesperson told the New York Times.

Walker’s campaign has been marred by repeated scandals, including the recent allegation that he paid for the abortion of a woman he was dating in 2009 despite his strong anti-abortion stance, domestic abuse allegations from multiple women, revelations he had fathered secret children and exaggerations about his background and qualifications.

Herschel is a great Trumper. He'll fit right in with Rudy, Flynn, MTG and the rest of the gang. :thup:

Notice how people like Herschel are terrific lightning rods for attracting the most radical Trumpers out of the woodwork.

Why isn't Hershel Walker qualified? It sounds like he's there to represent the people of Georgia...to be the voice for the regular citizen and act on their behalf...
Warnock isn't that guy....

Because he clearly lacks intelligence.
