“Well, he told me he’s going to, and I think he will. I had dinner with him a week ago. He’s a great guy. He’s a patriot, and he’s a very loyal person. He’s a very strong person. They love him in Georgia, I’ll tell ya. He was the greatest running backs in the history of the state, but he was one of the best in the history of the country. In college, there was nobody like him. He went to the NFL, by the way. He has great records in the NFL. He is a fantastic guy. They love him, so, I think he’d win. I think it would be very, very hard to beat Herschel. They made ballads for Herschel. They still sing them all the time. They still sing them. I think he’d be tough to beat, and I think he’ll run,” said Trump.

Walker played as a running back for the Dallas Cowboys. He played football at the University of Georgia and is the 1982 Heisman trophy winner.

With me running for Governor and @HerschelWalker running for Senate, I look forward to the Left trying to calling us RACISTS.

Without the race card, what do they have?
