OPINION: Herschel Walker needs Brian Kemp’s help to win, not Donald Trump’s

Herschel Walker barnstormed the state of Georgia for the last year hunting for enough GOP votes to get elected to the U.S. Senate. But the one person he could have really used help from was Gov. Brian Kemp.

The governor has proven to be the most popular Republican in the state. He routed former Sen. David Perdue in a Donald Trump-sponsored GOP primary by more than 50 points and, after seeing Republicans outmanned on the ground in 2021, plowed millions into his own get-out-the-vote operation to give Democrats a run for their money.

It’s not that Kemp wouldn’t offer his help this cycle to Walker— it’s that Walker never asked for it.

After months of running separate campaigns, the governor said last week he’d be happy for the two to share a stage heading into the final stretch. With Kemp well ahead of Walker in the polls, it seemed like the final boost Walker could use to close the gap between him and U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock.

Georgia was not totally engineered.

We live in a banana republic.

Kemp is a master vote stealer—unfortunately in 2020 he fought for the other side.

Details, details....

So—Walker does need Kemp (and Ratburger)—to cheat for us...but it has nothing to do with ideology.

Trump has become an outcast for supporting patriot candidates.

He needs to drive home the point that Warnock is nothing more than a pawn for Biden's imbecilic policies, which ARE NOT good for Georgia!

Gee, why wouldn’t all our Republicans go help Walker? Don’t they want to win the seat? It’s not and either/or situation.

Just another hate on Trump article posted so FR Never Trumpers can bash Trump together.

I agree but as much as of like Trump since even before the golden escalator is kind of confusing honestly it’s not one-size-fits-all or at least it doesn’t feel that way anymore I will admit I was surprised we did not do better considering how awful the Democrats have done with our country in just two years they have run every leftist pipe dream imaginable from transsexual garbage to stopping over adduction to a crazy foreign war
Yes corruption in the voting process does matter Particularly in minority urban Preesh age in swing states but something else happened and I fear it’s simply there are a hell of a lot of liberals though most of whom we imported

Fine, so let’s see Kemp help Walker in the month leading to the run-off. It could mean control of the Senate - if Kemp really cares about Georgia and the nation, he will offer his unstinting support to Walker now. And hopefully Trump will not get upset if Walker appears on a stage with Kemp.

Seems an orchestrated attempt to bring him down before he announces &/or he is indicted.

92% of Trump backed candidates won in this election. I believe the number is 169 candidates. The media is trying to convince you that Fetterman winning in PA means Trump is toxic and must be shunned by Walker.

I don't think Walker sees it that way and I hope to see several Trump rallies in Georgia before the December runoff

The Narrative needs Herschel Walker to lose.

So, lose he shall.

Just barely - but he'll lose.

Minus the Democrat cheating, Trump won Georgia in 2020; so he would be an asset, especially if he and Kemp can end their counterproductive feud and appear together.

Hopefully, some of Trump’s $100 million cash on hand will “come out of the woodwork” and support Walker in the runoff.
