Seth Meyers has some concerns about Herschel Walker’s choice of analogies on his senate campaign. On Wednesday night, he honed in on one in particular, joking that it’s probably “a bad idea” for Walker to tell a fictional story involving multiple pregnancies.At a rally this week, Walker attempted to galvanize his supporters by telling the story of a bull.
“I’ve been telling this little story about this bull out in the field with six cows, and three of them are pregnant,” Walker began. “So you know you got something going on.
But all he cared about is kept his nose against the fence, looking at three other cows that didn’t belong to Him.” From there, the bull eventually decides to jump over the fence, only to learn that the cows he was staring at are actually also bulls. “So what I’m telling you don’t think something is better somewhere else,” Walker finished.

flashed an honorary sheriff’s badge during a debate with Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock — before missing the second showdown in the closely watched race.The former football star, 60, was widely mocked and accused of exaggerating his credentials, and “The Daily Show” host unsurprisingly joined in on the mocking soon after.“I don’t know what’s crazier in this story,” the host said. “The fact that this man lied about being in law enforcement, or the fact that he pulled out a fake badge during a debate.”Noah then wondered how many people Walker arrested using his fake credentials, before quipping if the politician uses a “World’s Best Dad” cup to prove he’s a present dad.During his spiel, Noah said the “saddest part” of the ordeal is that “there are people who are going to believe that Herschel Walker was in law enforcement because he pulled out this badge.”He then compared his “honorary” badge to Taylor Swift’s honorary doctorate degree from NYU.“You don’t see her [Swift] in the operating room like, ‘Well, killed another one!’”Walker addressed the controversy to NBC News, saying the badge was “honorary,” but also “legit” and grants him certain authorities in the jurisdiction.“This is from my hometown,” he said of the badge.

Georgia Democrat Sen. Raphael Warnock and Libertarian businessman Chase Oliver took the stage Sunday night for the second Senate debate ahead of November's election, but Republican Herschel Walker was represented by an empty podium.

An "October surprise" rocked the Georgia Senate race earlier this month with the allegation that Republican candidate Herschel Walker paid for a girlfriend's abortion in 2009, which he has flatly denied.

"Real Time" host Bill Maher closed his show on Friday by marveling at how Herschel Walker can be supported by the Republican Party. "Someone must explain Herschel Walker and how in a supposedly sophisticated country a person with his resume could ever be elected to office," Maher said.

First, he blamed “neo-Marxists” for their estranged relationship, but was mostly cavalier about it, saying in full, “[The relationship with my daughter] may change, but I have very good relationships with all the others.
Herschel Walker said he did not know who is the mother of one of his children had to repeatedly beg the former NFL star to send her money for the abortion he urged her to have in 2009.

Walker has never served in the military despite his recent false claims of having had a “military career.”“Hey, just think about it: Pronoun?
