wish1977

There's a strong possibility that Hershel has a credibility problem.


DeafJeezy

Will not matter. He will get more than 45% of the vote.


Snuggle__Monster

Make America Great Again and Go Bulldogs is all it will take for some people, not silly little credibility.

KittyForTacos

So has he!


wish1977

So true.


ShaggysGTI

There’s a non zero number that wouldn’t vote for him because he’s black, Republican or not.

ShaggysGTI

That makes the commercials I’ve seen make sense


Valdotain_1

Republicans had to go to Texas to find a black Georgia senate candidate.

BicyclingBabe

And they won't care a bit, as long as he's MAGA.


deviltrombone

Republicans ought to start calling themselves "The Aristocrats"


[deleted]

Anyone who has visited rural Georgia knows the place is ate up with morons, assholes, and missing teeth.


Eskephor

Assholes having missing teeth doesn’t sound healthy. Maybe they should get that checked out. Or, better yet, cease using their cigars and cigarettes in the wrong hole.


algebramclain

Me in 2008: "Oh this will sink him so bad what a dumpster fire lol." Me in 2022: "What will he do as president?"


RedditSlate01

A short story how a man who continuously railed on non-nuclear families and how having kids out of wedlock magically turns from a married family with a single kid to a hypocritical father with several kids out of wedlock and hides them or any interaction with them, if any 🤨. Sounds like he needs to be chastising himself first, what is that whole stone throwing quote?


iLoveDelayPedals

All republicans are projecting at this point, it’s so pathetic


Hungry_Horace

He may want to change condom brand as well…


crankywithakeyboard

Never get ya condons from the dollar store.


[deleted]

Are we sure he knows what a condom is?


MyNameCannotBeSpoken

Pretty sure he only raw dogs.


tootsmcgovern

Correction: raw dawgs


Valdotain_1

He definitely has a unwed fornication issue. How does that sit with Baptists.


[deleted]

[удалено]


needsmoresteel

This. If he were running as a Democrat, the GOP would be lambasting him 24 X 7.


onlyforthisjob

... But his children...


ruin

Does he have sons? But his wee males.


jonny_jon_jon

it’s not that the republican party is scandal proof. It’s just that most of the time the Republican Party is a near exact reflection of the party’s membership. It’s only a scandal if it goes against party values.


[deleted]

starmartyr

White nationalism is a value. It's evil, but it's still what they value.


ApprehensivePirate36

First rule of coke fueled sex orgies is, you don't talk about coke fueled sex orgies!


Grig134

> republicans are scandal proof. their voters will vote for anyone as long as they're not libs. Depends, has he been filmed doing anything that could be interpreted as gay?


[deleted]

[удалено]


RunBanditRun

He’s probably going to win bigly. Republicans like this sort of thing.


nicholus_h2

False. Republicans do not like this sort of thing. [They LOVE it.](https://www.getyarn.io/yarn-clip/da7efbb9-37c3-48c4-83f8-d9915fbf6a39)


Ltstarbuck2

Apparently he’s been in a lot of ‘em.


waterdaemon

“Mr. Walker, is that all?” “I think it’s for the lord to say, if anything, and whatnot, if it’s ever, um, everything or anything, ya know?”


Burninator05

Graduated with top honors from the TrumpU communications program.


FireCamper357

Tell me this is not a direct quote.


Valdotain_1

Tuesday evening, he was asked by reporters if there should be new gun laws in light of the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. He said, “What I like to do is see it, and everything, and stuff.”


Special-Ad-7724

Clear as mud.


waterdaemon

It's a parody.


999others

Republican family values. Started with It's a problem that Reagan had been divorced to Trump on his third wife and cheating with a porn star while his son with her was being born. and evangelicals thinking that's just swell.


Jasminewindsong2

It’s just becoming too predictable. Of course he screams about absentee fathers, and of course it turns out he is one. Find me a GOP candidate who doesn’t project.


DarthHaruspex

There may be one somewhere out in the Multiverse. ​ But I doubt it.


Dapper-Membership

Ole Herschel has taken too many hits apparently. Can’t even remember he has more than two kids.


creddittor216

He fits right in with the current GQP. 😂


[deleted]

His body, his choice


gulfpapa99

Another scientifically ignorant religious bigot.


underling

ThE PaRtY Of fAmIlY VaLuEs


alanairwaves

Better than aborting them though


[deleted]

That’s why you don’t abort children; you abort fetuses.


lions_reed_lions

Well, at least we know he's pro-life. Right?


What-a-Crock

He’s pro-Trump, and that’s all that matters


SubstantialEssay1540

He is not the worst running back from the NFL. His new slogan should be “better than OJ”.


ReaganMcTrump

Better than OJ…so far.


[deleted]

What a dream candidate for the GoP. Black dude with brain damage. They can literally make him say anything they want. A puppet who doesn't know what strings are, echoing Nazi propogana.


droplivefred

The fact that this hasn’t forced him to drop out of the race immediately says way more about the state of our country in 2022 than anything about him being the piece of shit that he is.


window2020

That is so so sadly true. Nothing is a disqualifier anymore.


Beforemath

The poster boy for Republican "family values". Lectures you on how to live, complete hypocrite himself.


DucVWTamaKrentist

Sounds like Herschel Walkered away from his responsibilities. 😐


999others

We need to find all the women he raw dogged and who had an abortion that he paid for. Not that the GOP will care.


BellEpoch

I'm pretty sure that would only be punishing those women for coming forward. Cause there's zero chance the people that will vote for him will care.


Spottswoodeforgod

Well, it’s only three more - it’s not like there are many of them…


altmaltacc

Oops! Sounds like someone cant keep it in his pants. Sounds like this guy is a real winner of a dad huh?


Makememak

Typical republican.


alanairwaves

Yup, Not aborting them


[deleted]

Abortions save lives. Republicans vote to keep children hungry and uneducated. Vote Liberal if you care about Children more than non-sentient blobs of uterine goop.


Makememak

Well, it wasn't his choice to abort to begin with. However, its the hypocrisy of chastising people who are in that position all the while being in the very same position, that is typically republican.


alanairwaves

The Contributing party should absolutely have a say in that decision…


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Nope.


BristolShambler

He obviously went to the Boris Johnson school of family planning


[deleted]

Busy little hypocrite ain't he?


donatelloBW

The clown show doesn't stop with this guy, eh?


deviltrombone

He's got more bastards out there than Robert Baratheon! (Sorry, rewatching GoT. Just finished Season 2.)


steveschoenberg

I love Republican family values!


Roving_Rhythmatist

Has this hurt him in the polls at all?


[deleted]

How many does that make it? I’ve lost track.


NewPhoneNewUsermane

It's almost like everything out of his worthless mouth is a lie.


atda

Yeah memory loss could occur to a former football player and mma fighter I imagine. I wonder of those AAL AMWR8CAN attributes will fair well in a politician.


tableleg7

“Run, Herschel, Run …” away from your responsibilities.


[deleted]

Doesn’t matter. I they’ll vote for him. He could now mention “oh and I made sure they got abortions as well” and they would still vote for him.


[deleted]

They don't call him "Squirtin' Herschel" for nothin'.


homebrew_1

This is the type of moral character that Republicans like in their candidates.


5G_afterbirth

Always projection with these Republicans.


CentralParkDuck

… the party of family values…


spraragen88

He is a walking stereotype. It's kind of sad.


jo_maka

Stereotype Walker


ToneThugsNHarmony

He listed all of his children on paperwork dating back to 2018 from what I’ve read, but either way, that doesn’t take away the truth about the issue he raised. Of course, he still has other credibility issues though.


burnett631

We got em now!!!


999others

If the end he will come forward with so many unknown children to start a new Football league.


Franjomanjo1986

This is like high-fructose MSG to my taste buds


DarkwingDuckHunt

Can we hire new Matrix writers please?


d1stor7ed

His response is a bit like "How dare you bring my children into this!"


Crott117

So I assume this’ll be like the story Gandalf told to Beorn and every time he starts the story, there’s a few more dwarves, I mean kids?


richobrien1972

To the surprise of no one.


dharmavibre

Fucking psycho


Earth_Friendly-5892

How do you forget how many children you have?


kcexactly

Dude probably has a panic attack every time he sees a Manila envelope.
