Today, dear friends, we are going to delve deep into the political mind of Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Georgia.
Walker, a former professional football player, caught my attention some time ago with his political observations but he really impressed me with his view on evolution.
In case you missed it, Walker told us:
“At one time, science said man came from apes, did it not? … If that is true, why are there still apes? Think about it.”
Darwin move over.
I took Walker’s advice and thought about it – a lot. The implications and subtleties overwhelmed me, so much so that I scheduled a visit to the ape exhibit at the Detroit Zoo. I wanted to learn more.
I would invite Walker to be my guide, but he is probably too busy with his campaign to help me understand it all.
I assume Walker is reaching out to the “survival of the fittest” sector of the electorate.
As I was trying to fully grasp Walker’s insights on evolution, the man bowled me over with his understanding of the environment, particularly air pollution. He advised us:
“Since we don’t control the air, our good air decided to float over to China’s bad air, so when China gets our good air, their bad air got to move. So, it moves over to our good air space. Then, now, we got to clean that back up.”
I wish the good air had “decided” to stay here, instead of floating to China. At least, if the dirty air insisted on leaving, it could have chosen an ally. An ally might have sent back our good air and kept the bad. Then, we would not have another foreign relations dilemma.
I thought about that as well. But this man was putting me on overload. First, apes and followed by the causes of air pollution. Just so much a guy’s brain can handle. We aren’t all Herschel Walkers.
Walker himself appears to be overloaded as well. It turns out along with three children he acknowledged, he had a son whom he did not disclose. But he did disclose graduating from the University of Georgia, which he did not.
When a man has stored so much knowledge on important policy issues it is easy to confuse a son with a college degree.
Actually, by not having disclosed that he had a fourth child, perhaps he should run for prime minister in England.
After all, the outgoing Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, could not answer, when asked, how many children he had fathered.
When I thought that Walker had reached his peak with evolution and air pollution, I discovered, in my research, that he puts Dr. Anthony Fauci to shame. Walker told one interviewer he had a cure for COVID:
“Do you know right now, I have something that [you can bring] into a building, that will clean you of COVID, as you walk through this, this dry mist?
“As you walk through the door, it will kill any COVID on your body. When you leave, it will kill the virus as you leave, this here product.”
Walker then implied that the government was trying to keep the miracle spray secret from the public.
“Do you know? You know they don’t wanna talk about that. They don’t wanna hear about that.”
While he has yet to win election to the Senate, Walker, it is clear, already has his eyes on the White House. It was Donald Trump, if you recall, who suggested injecting disinfectants to fight COVID. But that was not all. When Trump learned that the virus dies in sunlight, he mused:
“So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it’s ultraviolet or just a very powerful light — and I think you said that hasn’t been checked because of the testing. And then ... supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or some other way...”
Given Walker’s “dry mist” killer of COVID and his penchant to lie a lot, according to his staff, he has won the endorsement of Trump.
He also has impressed, among others, Nikki Haley, the former governor of South Carolina and a potential presidential candidate. Earlier this year, Haley tweeted that Walker is “living proof that hard work and determination pay off.”
Given Walker’s views analyzed above, think where Walker would be without having worked so hard.
I am glad that I don’t live in Georgia. I could not absorb all that Walker has to offer on how to handle some of the planet’s most serious issues. Who can study so much?
But lots of Georgians, according to polls, support Walker. Apparently, they believe he will make his anti-COVID dry mist available to everyone, and send Georgia’s dirty air to blue states and, of course, back to China.
