Why Mitch McConnell caved to Donald Trump on Herschel Walker
CNN
As recently as this summer, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell appeared to have gross misgivings about the Senate candidacy of Herschel Walker in Georgia.
In response to an Associated Press story in July detailing Walker's turbulent past -- reportedly threatening his ex-wife, exaggerating his business successes etc. -- Josh Holmes, a longtime McConnell confidant, tweeted this: "This is about as comprehensive a takedown as I've ever read. My lord."
Walker didn't respond to the AP's request for comment on the report.
