Democrats May Keep The Senate As The Truth Comes Out About Herschel Walker
New reporting reveals that Herschel Walker has been lying about his business success and how many people he employs.
Via: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
But an Atlanta Journal-Constitution review of court records and other public documents contradicts statements Walker has made about the number of people his companies employ, their size and the assets they own. The review also revealed a string of defaults, settlements, and lawsuits alleging that Walker and his businesses owed millions of dollars in unpaid loans.
And while Walker attributes his wealth to his business acumen, much of it seems to be derived from his celebrity status as a football legend through speaking engagements and brand ambassadorships, according to campaign financial disclosures.

Just like his friend Donald Trump, Herschel Walker makes his money off of being famous, and his business career isnt anything like what he is trying to sell the voters of Georgia.

Will they care that Herschel Walker is an empty suit with a dubious character, or will they vote for him anyhow?

They already replaced the Fulton county election board with an all white board.

Whether he's a republican or not. The hate runs deep in the white man's veins in Georgia.

Wishful thinking.
