Herschel Walker Mocked Over False Claim He Was FBI Agent: 'Humiliating Lie'

Should have stuck to football...although politics is all about lying, one is not to get caught out quite so badly!
This guy will be a perfect example of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. This is a seat the Republicans should be taking back, but frankly, I'd put this race at Lean D now. Walker is a terrible candidate, has no understanding of the issues, and he's made false claims over and over and over. The Georgia GOP screwed themselves by allowing him to get away with no debates in the primary and now he's untested and unvetted.
 
The guy spent a week at the FBI academy in Quantico. Was he misunderstood three years ago when he allegedly said he was a FBI agent? There are about 800 candidates running for congress this year. Why does the left continually pick on the black guy? Too upity?
 
Sounds to me he was joking about being an agent, but this is about the 10th thread attacking the black Republican by board Dimwingers.

Any black that strays from the Dimwinger Plantation will be destroyed by the racist Dimwinger party.
He was clearly joking about being an FBI agent..


He was not joking about graduating college at the top of his class...but again, I understand he was trying to embellish...this happens...Trump's whole existence is based on lying about himself...


The problem is....this idea of just finding a figurehead that is popular; even tho they have no IDEA about policy making -- that is just going to be something to get use to...


People whined about AOC being a bartender and not knowing anything...so it is hypocritical to feel offended when folks are using the same critiques about Herschel...and if AOC had lied about graduating college or anything else, right wingers would have eviscerated her..

Yea, politicians embellish.....


Seeing as tho, Biden was able to defeat your cult leader -- I am thinking he was smart enough to be president...Trump also bragged about being a "BRILLIANT STUDENT" even tho he was not..

Georgia Republican U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker has been widely panned following a report that he falsely claimed to be a police officer and an FBI agent.
Walker claimed in 2017 that he was with the Cobb County Police Department in Georgia, but the department has now told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution it has no record of him working there
His campaign said he was an "honorary deputy," but the police department could not confirm this. Walker also falsely claimed to have been an FBI agent in 2019 despite not being an agent, though he participated in a week's training at the FBI's school in Quantico, Virginia.

The former football star reportedly told an audience in 2019: "I spent time at Quantico at the FBI training school. Y'all didn't know I was an agent?"
Social media users slammed Walker, with many accusing him of being a liar. Walker is running in the Senate race against incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock, a Democrat.
Occupy Democrats, a group that supports progressive Democrats, tweeted that Walker "must suspend his campaign after he was caught in a humiliating lie as it was exposed that he falsely claimed to have worked as a police officer and even an FBI agent."
"Herschel Walker is the first person I've seen who actually lies more often than Donald Trump. Makes sense that they love each other so much," tweeted Matthew Sheffield, founder of media platform Flux and who describes himself as "post-conservative."
Walker was endorsed by former President Donald Trump in the Georgia Republican Senate primary and some Twitter users highlighted that connection.
Bakari Sellers, former member of the South Carolina House of Representatives, shared The Atlanta-Journal Constitution's story and tweeted: "He may literally be the only person who lies more than Trump.
"Herschel Walker just can't stop lying," tweeted Jon Cooper, former Long Island campaign chair for former President Barack Obama.
In the past, Walker has falsely claimed to have graduated from the University of Georgia as well as wrongly saying he was high school valedictorian and that he had founded a charity for veterans.

Walker had also made headlines during his primary campaign for questioning evolution and asking "why are there still apes?"
As with Trump, Walker is ignorant, incompetent, dishonest, wrong on the issues, a liar, and unfit to hold public office.
 
Honestly, that appears to be more of a tongue-in-cheek joke than anything else...
...and I agree....about that. The pattern of lying and exaggeration is also there. Some of those were assertions meant to be taken seriously. The real question for the voters of Georgia is...does he represent their values and ethics?
I would not vote for him...regardless of party or position. He is a liar. The fact that many liars are in office does not justify him.
