The depth of Georgia Republican Senate candidate and Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker’s ignorance never ceases to amaze. On Sunday, Walker spoke in front of the Hall County Republican Party. The group was small and the speech revolved mainly around the enemy: China.
Walker started his explanation of climate change and the “Green New Deal” by saying that “We, in America, have some of the cleanest air and cleanest water of anybody in the world.”
However, Walker pivoted to describe how the U.S. is going to “pull from the ‘Green New Deal’… millions or billions of dollars cleaning our good air up,” and added that, “China and India aren’t putting anything into cleaning that situation up.”
“So all that bad air is still there. But, since we don’t control the air, our good air decide to float over to China bad air. So when China get our good air, their bad air gotta move. So, it moves over to our good air space. And now, we gotta clean that back up. While they’re messing ours up. So, what we’re doing is just spending money. But we’re not just spending money, we’re spending your money,” Walker says. And that is why Biden is raising taxes, he reasons.
Last week, Walker was caught lying to his own campaign aides about three children he’d apparently been keeping a secret. CNN also reported that Walker was at one time a “partner” and “spokesman” for a subsidiary of Just Energy, a company that’s been investigated by states’ attorneys general and utility agencies amid years of deceptive practices.
The list of Walker’s deceptions is long and varied. It includes lying about graduating from the University of Georgia, as The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported, to mammoth exaggerations about his business acumen, to the tall tale about the time he founded (or co-founded) the organization Patriot Support—which he did not. He even recently tried to deny that former President Donald Trump ever said that the 2020 election was stolen.
