Lindsey Graham (R-SC) pushed back on new allegations against Georgia U.S. Senate Republican candidate Herschel Walker during a press conference Wednesday, saying that the timing and the way that it unfolded reminds him of the salacious and unproven allegations that were made in 2018 against then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.<\/p>\n<p>Left-wing lawyer Gloria Allred said in a press conference Wednesday that an anonymous woman claims that she had an affair with Walker in the late 1980s and early 1990s and that he paid for her to have an abortion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I\u2019m gonna just say right now guys, I\u2019m done with this foolishness,\u201d Walker said in response to the press conference. \u201cI\u2019ve already told people this is a lie and I\u2019m not going to entertain, to continue to carry a lie along.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd right now they got crushed at that debate and now the Democrats are doing and saying whatever they can to win this fight and win this seat,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut I want them to know, they don\u2019t know Herschel Walker. They don\u2019t know that I\u2019m from Wrightsville, Georgia, and I\u2019m gonna win this seat. I told them when I got in this race, I\u2019m gonna win. And they now see that I am gonna win. So I just want you guys to know that this right here, that right now, I\u2019m winning this seat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Graham appeared with Walker on the campaign trail in Georgia and spoke after Walker made his brief remarks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I\u2019ve seen this movie before, folks. I remember the Kavanaugh storyline really well,\u201d Graham said. \u201cThe hearing\u2019s over, does a great job, all of a sudden I\u2019ve got this letter. I want to share it with the committee. Well, it was shared with The Washington Post before it was shared with the committee, making a salacious allegation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd Judge Kavanaugh met with every Democrat, and the ones that knew about it never gave him a chance to explain himself. And the rest is history,\u201d Graham continued. \u201cAnother one, another one, and another one. So here\u2019s the game plan, Herschel. Get a celebrity lawyer like Avenatti, who\u2019s now in jail, get a celebrity lawyer to come out and make a wild accusation right before it\u2019s time to make a decision about who should be on the Supreme Court or who should be in the Senate. So I\u2019ve seen this movie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI live 40 miles right over those hills there,\u201d Graham concluded. \u201cPeople here are not going to tolerate it. There\u2019s gonna be a backlash in Georgia. This is coming from L.A. It\u2019s coming from an activist Democratic celebrity lawyer who went to the 2016 convention for Hillary Clinton. And people in Georgia are not this dumb.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NEW: Herschel Walker and Sen.
