Walker, a former NFL running back, told “Fox & Friends” Brian Kilmeade that he has never met Obama, but if he had, it meant he was a celebrity “because all he did was hang out with celebrities.” “He forgot to tell people that I created one of the largest minority-owned food service companies in the United States of America, so I’m signing the front of a check, which he probably never did except when he was in the White House.” Walker said. “I create businesses, I sit on a public board. So these are things I’ve done outside of football. Put my resume up against his — I put it up any time of the day and I think I did well,” Walker added. Obama at a rally in Georgia on Friday said during a campaign for Walker’s opponent, Sen. Raphael Warnock (D), that while Walker had a laudable football career, that did not translate to success in Congress. “Some of you may not remember, but Herschel Walker was a good football player,” Obama said. “But here’s the question: Does that make him the best person to represent you in the U.S. Senate? Does that make him equipped to weigh in on critical decisions about our economy, our foreign policy and our future?” Kilmeade also asked Walker about how he’s handling a series of recent controversies surrounding his campaign, including reports that the Republican candidate paid for several of his ex-partners’ abortions, but maintained a staunch anti-abortion position on the campaign trail. “I keep moving forward,” Walker told Kilmeade. “Right now, they’re going to try to throw everything at me. They’ve spent almost $100 million so far against me. Right now, the race is basically tied or I’m on top, which shows they don’t know how to spend their own money, so stop spending our money.” NotedDC — Biden sounds election alarm ahead of vote Watch live: Biden makes remarks to protect democracy Reports have also surfaced that Walker fathered previously undisclosed children. Despite the controversy, he and Warnock are running in one of the tightest races in the country. A new Atlanta Journal-Constitution-UGA poll released Monday showed Warnock and Walker statistically tied at 45 percent. The Georgia Senate race is one of the few that could determine who controls the upper chamber next year. If no clear winner is decided next week, the election will go to a second round – which is how Warnock won the seat in 2020.
