Herschel Walker accused of encouraging and paying for abortion by second woman
DJ Khaled has nothing to do with this story. But one of his catch phrase “Another One” fits perfectly for our next story.
Herschel Walker, the Republican Senate nominee in Georgia, is denying another claim. One that he was involved in another woman getting an abortion.
The new woman who is remaining anonymous said during a Zoom press conference that she met Walker in the 1980s and became pregnant in 1993 with his child.
She stated “After discussing the pregnancy with Herschel several times, he encouraged me to have an abortion and gave me the money to do so. I went to a clinic in Dallas but simply couldn’t go through with it, I left the clinic in tears,” she recounted. She lost her nerve and said Walker was upset.
He “drove me to the clinic the following day and waited for hours in the parking lot until I came out,” she said. “I was devastated because I felt like I was pressured into having the abortion.”
As for why she is speaking out now, she said “I do not believe that Herschel is morally fit to be a US senator and that is the reason why I am providing proof.”
Adding that her motives are not political. She is a registered Independent and voted for former President Donald Trump.
Walker’s response, I’m done with this foolishness. I’ve already told people this is a lie, and I’m not going to entertain, continue to carry a lie along. ” And I also want to let you know that I didn’t kill JFK either,”
It’s like finding out about the boy crying wolf. You just don’t believe anything from him anymore.
