Even as Georgia Republicans worried their hope of defeating incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock was circling the drain, prominent national Republicans reinforced their support for GOP senate hopeful Herschel Walker.
“Everything has been a lie,” the younger Walker posted on Tuesday, adding: “I’m just saying don’t lie. Don’t lie on my mom. Don’t lie on me. Don’t lie on the lives you’ve destroyed and act like you’re some moral family man. Y’all should care about that, conservatives.”
In a signal to supporters, Walker appeared at a long-planned “Prayer Warriors for Herschel” event at First Baptist Church in Dunwoody, where members of the media were barred from attending. Inside, attendees said, he was welcomed with a standing ovation. The fast-moving developments have some GOP figures despondent about Walker’s chances of defeating Warnock in a November race that could determine control of the U.S. Senate.
Kemp’s office issued a statement that backed the GOP ticket but stopped short of pledging specific support for the former football star. Spokesman Cody Hall said Kemp is “laser-focused on sharing his record of results” and raising money to boost the campaign’s ground game. Former President Donald Trump, who in early 2021 urged Walker to run for office, told his supporters to stick with a “man who has true greatness in his future.” The National Republican Senatorial Committee, the Republican National Committee and other groups issued statements backing Walker and maligning the media.
