Raphael Warnock: “If Mr. Walker were here, I’d ask him about this disturbing history of violence, and we’re not just talking about one woman, but multiple women. He threatened to kill his ex-wife, put a gun to her head. He’s threatened other women.”
But during Sunday’s event, Warnock offered sharp criticism of Walker’s past violence against his ex-wife and slammed the Republican Senate nominee for refusing to be forthright with the public.
“If Mr. Walker were here, I’d ask him about this disturbing history of violence,” said Warnock. “And we’re not just talking about one woman, but multiple women. He threatened to kill his ex-wife, put a gun to her head. He’s threatened other women.” “When asked about that, he really hasn’t given account for this kind of violence. I want to know from him why he thinks he is ready to represent the people of Georgia and if he’s ready to face up to this history of violence,” Warnock continued. “This race is about who’s ready to represent the people of Georgia in the U.S. Senate. And by not showing up tonight for the job interview, by giving nonsensical answers about this history of violence, Herschel Walker shows he is not ready.
