Herschel Walker, a Republican candidate for the US Senate in Georgia, walked off the stage at a NASCAR event on Sunday. James Gilbert provided the photo. Herschel Walker told his supporters in Georgia that America's "good air" would be better spent in China. A video of a speech by a Republican during a campaign stop in Georgia that has been endorsed by Donald Trump is making the rounds on social media. Walker's mangled perspective "drew criticism." When China gets their good air, their bad air got to move, since we don't control the air. It goes over to our air space. We need to clean that back up. Herschel on the climate/Green New Deal/air: "Since we don't control the air our good air decided to float over to China's bad air so when China gets our good air, their bad air got to move. So it moves over to our good air space. Then now we got we to clean that back up." pic.twitter.com/BsR4GVAbX7

Are you kidding me? Is this a skit? Has the GOP really descended to this? To the ignorance and lunacy of the likes of Donald Trump and Herschel Walker? https://t.co/fNZ8v9QMIL

They make bad air and export it to the US for cleaning. After we’ve cleaned their air we send back the good air and they send us another order of bad air. Econ 101, really.

After about 2.4 million stunned views of the clip, first posted Monday by GPB News reporter Stephen Fowler, Walker's campaign responded with a question of his own.
The former football star has been the subject of a number of embarrassing revelations, including a long list of lies.
He has said he was an FBI agent, graduated from college, and was the valedictorian of his high school. Walker said he has three more children after railing about fathers who don't take care of their kids.
