Of all the despicable things that have been said or done by Trump and his sycophants over the past six years, encouraging Herschel Walker to run for the Senate is one of the most disturbing. Having implied that blacks are not capable of running corporations, professional sports teams and governments for many decades, Conservative, racist white men are now taking advantage of an unqualified black man who happens to be a celebrity.
Hoping that he will appeal to both Conservative and black voters, Mr. Walker has been forced into the National spotlight, exposing his many lies and embellishments. Of course, the Republicans are daring Democrats to suggest that a black man is not capable of being a Senator (even though Walker is running against an incumbent black Senator). Should he win, Mr. Walker will be a puppet for the Republican agenda, advised to vote on issues as instructed by his white superiors.
Of course, should he lose, Mr. Walker's deficiencies will be used to reinforce their long-held image of African Americans. Racism is expressed by keeping qualified individuals out of positions that they deserve or by encouraging unqualified candidates to represent their race.
