Herschel Walker's proclivity for lying and hypocrisy surpasses his proclivity for spouting absolute nonsense. Walker has lied about being a valedictorian, held a gun to his ex- wife's head, and discussed policy issues in a way that is almost unintelligible.
The head ass running for the Georgia Senate seat is in a close race with the incumbent senator. The Senate campaign of Herschel Walker denigrates African-Americans, specifically black fathers, in order to curry favor with the GOP.
Walker apologized on behalf of minorities on the show.
The fatherless home is a major problem for the African American community.
Walker said in an interview that men need to become fathers to children in neighborhoods with no fathers.
The New York Times reported that Walker compared the situation of black fathers leaving the home to that of slavery.
In a 2021 interview with the Black conservative media personalities Diamond and Silk, Mr. Walker lamented that “the father leaves in the Black family. He leaves the boys alone so they’ll be raised by their mom.”
“If you have a child with a woman,” Walker continued in that interview, “even if you have to leave that woman — even if you have to leave that woman — you don’t leave that child.”
I think he doth protest too much. That's in a turn of events.
The Daily Beast reported on Tuesday that Walker has been hiding an illegitimate 10-year-old son who has apparently been estranged from his father since he was a baby. The mother of Walker's 10-year-old went to court in order to get a paternity declaration.
The Daily Beast reported on Thursday that Walker had fathered two more children. Walker has two children, one of which was born when Walker was a student at UGA. When he was caught, Walker admitted their existence, but denied that he was an absent father.
I didn't want to use them as props to win a political campaign. I don't know what parent would want their child involved in gutter politics.
Walker can pretend that keeping the existence of his other children secret was about protecting them, but he has spoken openly about the relationship he has with his son, Christian Walker, a critic of gay men who is attracted to men but claims he isn't gay.
After excoriating dirty campaigning, Walker's campaign manager, Scott Paradise, gathered some mud to sling through a statement about his opponent's children.
He had a child when he wasn't married. He supports the child and keeps doing so. He's proud of his kids. The suggestion that Herschel is hiding the child because he hasn't used him in his campaign is offensive and absurd.
Raphael is currently involved in a nasty custody dispute with his ex- wife. He tried to hide it from the voters by hiding it from the authorities. This is a completely different standard.
It's classy. The only differences are that he is facing accusations of being a deadbeat and that he has a custody dispute. His opposition to abortion rights for women is based on his strict Christian beliefs. Walker wants a total ban on abortions, with no exceptions for rape, incest, or the health of the mother. The rise of fatherless and tragically motherless black children is worth the political power he would give them. Walker's lying, violence against women, hypocrisy andselective secular beliefs seem to come with the territory as a Southern candidate courting the religious right.
