Barack Obama called out GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker for lying about meeting him.
Walker claimed on multiple occasions to have let Obama win at basketball games.
"Now, listen, this would be funny if he weren't running for Senate," Obama said Thursday.
Former President Barack Obama called out GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker while campaigning for his opponent, Sen. Raphael Warnock, in Georgia on Thursday.
"Since the last time I was here, apparently, he also claimed that he used to let me beat him at basketball," Obama said to an audience in Atlanta, according to a clip of his speech. "But then he admitted that we have never actually met. So I guess this was more of an imaginary whooping that I laid on him."
