What does Trump's endorsement of Herschel Walker mean?

First, Walker's black, so if you think Trump's problem is primarily that he's a racist, he's trying to put that myth to bed.

Second, Walker is obviously more loyal and sympathetic to Trump's professed politics than Warnock, so maybe he's just picking a loyalist who can win.

Or, there's the fact that Walker lies, routinely, all the f-ing time, and that's the kind of guys who support Trump.

It tells me that Trump believes that Mr Walker is worthy of the office and shall perform his duties better than his opponent.

@jackjjackson um, ok, Jack, is that because you like lies, Walkers running prowess, or because you have an issue with Warnock?

@MistyCee Warnock has plenty of his own issues. The guys a nut case.

@jackjjackson You just like Walker because he won the Congressional Medal of Honor.

As with all of them it appears he has skeletons in his closets. I, sick of politicians. @LeopoldBloom

@jackjjackson Not just skeletons, a freaking mausoleum.

Politics aside, Walker simply isn’t qualified. Notice that he won’t debate Warnock. His handlers kept him out of public view until the primary was over, and now we see why.
