Herschel Walker on RNC Convention Speech: ‘I Spoke Out Because I Wanted People To Know the Truth’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

WALKER: “One thing about it is I’m for truth. I’m for truth. And what I mean by that is, I didn’t speak out for the president because someone asked me to. I spoke out because I know him. I spoke out because I wanted people to know the truth. And I’ve seen a lot of stations and I give you guys credit, I’ve seen a lot of stations that give opinions when they’re supposed to be giving the news. I grew up in The South. I grew up in a small town that people may watch one station, and they’ve seen a lot of things that’s been slanted. And right now, I won’t be — if the NFL, the NBA, or any professional team is going to get involved, what I’ve been saying, keep Politics out of sports, if you’re going to get involved, give the truth. This administration here has not had a fair chance. Anytime anything happens it’s this administration’s fault. Well, they’re reaching out saying, guys, come let us help the change. That’s how it’s going to change. It’s not going to change by something you see, by protesting and kneeling and all that. Way it’s going to change is get into Washington, get into democratic people to go across feline and meet with the Republicans, Republicans’ hands are open. Not having a closest fist. They are hands are opening saying let’s get this done, and they don’t seem to want to do it and I want people to know that. I want people to know the truth before they go to the polls to vote. You know, that’s important. It seems like the democratic size want to go to the polls upset, want to go to the polls thinking that this administration is the one that causing this, because, you know, all I ever hear from the democratic size is let’s go to the sign, this sign, this sign. You know, there’s more than one thing science. There’s other sciences say something different. You know, they talk about college football playing again, and they can play again from other scientists.”
