Herschel Walker said he graduated in the top 1% of his class at UGA

[Cattledog]

Fact: He didn't even graduate! Never earned a degree.

[relayerbob]

1. People here in Georgia don't find that funny

[Caliman73]

9. Not funny in a comedic way...

More like funny in an "You are so fucking pathetic" way.

Thing is that you don't have to go to university or graduate from university to be intelligent or to have a high standing in the community. LeBron James did not go to university, yet he has done well for himself, and has generally carried himself very well in terms of expressing his views and understanding of political and social issues.

Walker seems to be a pathological liar, which is probably why Trump likes him. He lies when he does not have to, when a reasonable person would know that the information is readily verifiable.

I went to university. I got fairly decent grades and received my bachelor's degree. If I say something like, "I graduated Magna Cum Laude" Someone, somewhere is going to be able to get access to my transcript and reveal that that was a lie. So when people ask me about my education, I tell the truth.

2. Must have flunked math.

[whopis01]

12. LOL - that's good. n/t

[William Seger]

17. Maybe he thought being #N out of N was "top of the class"

[Casady1]

3. It is hard to graduate

when you can't read.

[LakeArenal]

5. Or speak coherently.

I’d love to see an essay question from his year in UGA. Quite the caliber of students.

[milestogo]

4. He went to the Trump school of lying about your background.

[leftieNanner]

8. Were Hershel and Melania in the same class?

[DavidDvorkin]

6. Maybe he was in the top 1% of those who failed to graduate

But probably not even that.

[Tomconroy]

7. It seems like it will be impossible to lose this race. Thank you Trump!

[Claustrum]

10. Really? From the polling I saw, it's pretty close.

TFG showed that republicans don't care about being incoherent, dumb and lies about everything.

[Ilsa]

21. Sen. Warnock can beat him. Warnock is Black, fabulous, smart,

and runs a great campaign.

[MineralMan]

11. GA Republicans Chose Poorly

They thought that the list below ensured his election:

Local Football Star
Good Name Recognition
He's Black, so Every Black Voter Will Obviously Vote for Him
Did We Mention Local Football Hero?
Has Zero Political Experience (That's a plus for GQP candidates)

Bad pick.

[moondust]

13. GA is MTG country.

[Ilsa]

19. Nah, just far NW Georgia.

NE Georgia has an idiot repping them (Clyde), but at least he tries to keep quiet, even though he should be investigated by J6 also.

Atlanta is lovely & liberal.

[Ilsa]

18. His opponent for the Senate is also Black. I wonder

what the KKK voters are going to do, or will they just skip that on the ballot?

[MineralMan]

24. Good question.

I don't know.

[TheBeam19]

14. To be fair, he is quite stupid.

[Poiuyt]

15. He might have CTE. I think he should undergo an autopsy to be sure before the election

The good people of Georgia shouldn't have to worry that they might be electing someone who is mentally incapacitated.

[Ilsa]

20. An autopsy! I love it! He might even agree! nt

[PatSeg]

16. Does he really not realize

that people can check his often ridiculous statements? Meanwhile, doesn't he have any handlers?

[ashredux]

22. I'll be damned, who knew he was a comedy writer

[jcgoldie]

23. What Donald Trump taught the GOP

Lie without fear or remorse. Maintain the lie despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary. Allow your base to remain in complete denial where they want to be.
