Walker had virtually no qualifications that would have made him a capable senator, I find it deeply disturbing that some voters consider party loyalty more important than the actual ability to legislate.

A trump-backed candidate. Trump has become a serial loser. Republicans backing away from him.
Reading the Le Monde this morning.
Trump the serial loser
The former president is facing unfavorable court decisions, the Trump Organization's tax fraud conviction, and fallout from a controversial dinner with Kanye West.
Herschel Walker, a former professional American football player selected by Mr. Trump to try to take the Senate majority from the Democrats, failed. Chosen solely on the basis of celebrity and loyalty to the former businessman.
