Herschel Walker faces a very close race against Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock that could determine control of the Senate.
"They're trying to destroy Herschel to deter young men and women of color from being," Graham told Hannity on Thursday."If they destroy Herschel, it will deter people of color from wanting to be a conservative Republican because you just have your life ruined. We cannot let that happen. We need to have his back."
"If Herschel wins, he's going to inspire people all over Georgia—of color—to become Republicans and I say all over the United States. Herschel Walker is a nightmare for liberals. He's an African American conservative. They have belittled him, they have treated him like c***," Graham said. The senator went on:"The conservative movement for people of color is on the ballot in Georgia. We must help people like Herschel for the benefit of our country and the future of conservatism."
