Some of you may not remember, but Herschel Walker was a heck of a football player,\u201d Obama said. \u201cIn college, he was amazing. One of the best running backs of all time. But here is 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 the critical decisions about our economy and our foreign policy and our future?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy the way, the opposite is true, too. You may have liked me as president, but you wouldn\u2019t want me starting at tailback by the dogs,\u201d he said. \u201cI mean, can you imagine my slow, old skinny behind getting hit by some 300 pound defensive tackle who runs a 4.6 40 (yard dash)? You would have to scrape me off the field. No, I can\u2019t. No, I can\u2019t. I am good at a lot of things, but that would not be one of those things that I am good at.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25 from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HerschelWalker?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@HerschelWalker<\/a> this morning on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BarackObama?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@BarackObama<\/a>\u2019s visit to Georgia. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe probably needs to sit this one out.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CzNGrBt35S\">pic.twitter.com\/CzNGrBt35S<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Chris Hartline (@ChrisHartline) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChrisHartline\/status\/1586408436010741760?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 29, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Walker responded to Obama\u2019s remarks while on the campaign trail Saturday morning, saying that Obama needed to \u201csit this one out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Obama was here last night. He said I\u2019m a celebrity. He got that one wrong, didn\u2019t he? I\u2019m not a celebrity, I\u2019m a warrior for God,\u201d Walker said. \u201cHe got something else wrong, too. Remember two years ago, he told us to vote for Joe Biden, didn\u2019t he? He got that one wrong, did he not? He\u2019s lost twice to Georgia already, hasn\u2019t he, so I think he probably needs to sit this one out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry to tell former President Obama, I\u2019m sorry, I\u2019m gonna pray for him,\u201d Walker added. \u201cI\u2019m gonna pray for him because he needs some help. He needs some help because he got with the wrong horse. Senator Warnock is the wrong horse. You know he can\u2019t do the job, and it\u2019s time for him to leave.
