The Georgia GOP Senate candidate, Herschel Walker, was called a "f---ing idiot" by Bill Maher.
On his show on Friday, he pointed to reports about Walker that show why he shouldn't be in the Senate.
He is an idiot on a scale that is hard to parody.
He said that Walker had admitted to threatening violence against his ex- wife.
Walker lied about being a police officer and an FBI agent, among other things, according to the man.
Walker claimed to have been the valedictorian of his high school class, but no evidence has been found to back that up, and he also claimed to have been in the top 1 percent of his class.
Walker has four children with different women and is accused of paying for an abortion for a former girlfriend despite running on a platform firmly opposed to allowing the procedure in all cases, according to reports.
Christian Walker, Walker's son, has been critical of his father as the campaign has continued.
The reason why Republicans are still supporting Walker is more complicated than they think.
The appeal of Walker or Trump is that they show how much Republicans don't support Democratic policies.
Part of the appeal of Herschel Walker or a Donald Trump or any number of egregious assholes Republicans have backed is that they say to Democrats, 'Do you see how much we don't like what you're selling'.
He said Republicans think that anything would be better than identity politics, victimhood and white self-loathing.
He said that being a bad guy in Republican politics is not a dealbreaker.
Democrats think the other side is an "existential threat," but they don't make a point.
