Things are going badly for Sen. Raphael Warnock in Georgia. According to polls Warnock is trailing Republican candidate Herschel Walker, which is why his campaign called in some reinforcements, including Barack Obama.
Obama tried to dismiss Walker as a “celebrity candidate” who you wouldn’t trust to fly your plane:
Obama: "Some of you may not remember, but Herschel Walker was a heck of a football player… does that make him the best person to represent you?… let's say you're at the airport & you see Walker & you say, Hey, there's Herschel, Heisman winner. Let's have him fly the plane!" pic.twitter.com/ObyfIsOAEA

Barack Obama, in Georgia, calls Herschel Walker a ‘celebrity who wants to be a politician’ https://t.co/bxJOhEz1D7

Today Walker talked about Obama’s comments and brought over four and a half minutes of truth with him:

Watch: (video of Herschel Walker responding to Obamanation - best nickname EVER!!)
“Two years ago [Obama] told us to vote for Joe Biden didn’t he?” Perfect! Yes, and how’d that work out?
People comparing Walker to Fetterman verbal problems just haven't been paying attention. He's gotten pretty good at campaigning and elite media seem to be confusing a folksy southern accent with stupidity, and I don't think Georgia voters make that mistake. https://t.co/4D4wfwnnrj

There is rigor, dedication, persistence, commitment, loyalty, teamwork, hard work and talent required to be a professional athlete. I can’t say there is anything good about being a Marxist community organizer.
Herschel Walker paid for my abortion, too. Didn’t you know that guys can get pregnant?
Where is that wrong?
Obama made a mistake in attacking Herschel Walker. It probably will cause people to go watch Herschel’s response. They will then see that Hershel is not the ignorant buffoon as portrayed by the media. I suspect it will bring more of the fence-sitters over to Herschel’s side.
His response was amusing and on point. And, you will note he was speaking from the heart and I saw no evidence of it being a prepared speech which was being read from a teleprompter.
I dont think they can cheat enough to beat Herschel. It is fun to watch I want to see those numbers....
As opposed to a punk Community Organizer.
Obama wishes he were a celebrity, that's all he ever wanted, that and racial division.
BUT-—BUT-—Barry had all those hours in a MADRASSA after regular school hours in Indonesia !!!!!
How about the comment about “football players’ wanting to be politicians?
JACK KEMP comes to mind
I think you've had a lot of sports figures who later ran for office and has successful careers in the House or Senate. If you want to say Herschel Walker is anywhere near Jack Kemp in terms of qualifications or ability then go ahead.
