Former President Barack Obama went to Georgia to assist U.S. Senate candidate Raphael Warnock, and Gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. During the rally, Obama made sure to take his jabs at Herschel Walker. While Obama called Walker “a heck of a football player,” Obama also made sure to put him down within the same sentence, adding “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!”

Herschel Walker’s and Raphael Warnock’s ability to fly an airplane is still up for debate, however, only one candidate has had to call up a former President to host a rally in an effort to beat a political newcomer – Raphael Warnock. Throughout the Midterm election campaigns for Walker and Warnock, Democrats and the media have had to come up with every tactic imaginable in an attempt to slow down Walker’s momentum. Throughout the campaigning process, Democrats have allowed multiple claims with little to no substance to be circulated about Walker in an attempt to hurt his reputation, attempted to spin a documented honorary police badge into Walker playing dress-up cop, along with trying to make him out to be inarticulate and lack intelligence (something that would be considered racist if a Republican said that about Warnock.) While most people wouldn’t get on an airplane flown by Herschel Walker, many would book their ticket now if the other option was sending their kids to Raphael Warnock’s summer camp.

Herschel Walker caught wind of Obama’s Hail Mary effort to get Raphael Warnock across the finish line, and responded by saying, “Where has he been? He’s been in his nice house [while nobody can afford gas or groceries].”

 

Herschel Walker called out Obama for not only being pompous and beyond rich, but one area of criticism Barack and Michelle Obama have received is due to their purchasing a nearly $12 million house in Martha’s Vineyard. The 29-acre property is, of course, waterfront.

Having a home in an 85%+ White community, and having a $12 million house on a waterfront property isn’t exactly a good look for an administration that consistently talked about racism, climate change, and income inequality.

Throughout the rise of former President Barack Obama, his campaign and messaging are a large reason why politics has been so racially polarizing since roughly 2010. Racialized politics have divided Americans heavily since Obama’s Presidency, and evidence for this can be seen in the New York Times. According to NYT Labs, which gives you the ability to track frequently used words in the New York Times articles (http://chronicle.nytlabs.com/?keyword=racism) the New York Times’ use of “racism” was used throughout the 2010s at a rate that was over double the 1960s, which was the decade of the civil rights movement.

  1. The Devil went down to Georgia in the form of a former failed policy Ex President… Mr Walker MUCH RESPECT! Spread the word of God not of DEVILS!!! AMEN…..

  2. If Herschel was running as a candidate for Democrat Senator, Obama would be praising him to the highest!
    Democrats are so hypocritical! I pray Herschel
    wins!

  3. Obama is a fake President who has a fake family. He helped to plant Biden and continues to act like his puppet master . Demoncrats are liars!!

  4. Obama’s comments were right o0n target ! Herschel Walker is an imbecile and lunatic who belongs in a mental institution, not the senate ! Not to mention a total hypocrite who wants to make abortion illegal yet who has paid at least one of his former girlfriends to have an abortion .

  5. Had no respect for Obama when he was president and even less now. Handsome, smooth talking, devious, deceitful, divisive bag of waste.

  6. Look who’s saying someone isn’t qualified to be elected to public office. obama managed to do it, and he was about as unqualified as anyone ever was. He is like Biden, neither of them ever held a real job in their life. All obama ever did was be a student,or a “community organizer”, whatever that is, then managed to get into politics where he managed to become a millionaire Pretty good gig he had.

  7. Kind of like saying, here’s Obama, a community organizer, I bet he’d make a good president. Well that didn’t go so well.
