Herschel Walker gets punked

One could almost feel sorry for Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker — if he wasn’t such a dishonest, self-serving jerk. I mention this because Walker is sort of becoming a national joke. His inability to stop impregnating his girlfriends, coupled with his determination to impersonate a police officer, has become the butt of many a joke to the amusement of everybody with a sense of humor.

And now these jokes are even spilling into his campaign events. On Thursday, Officer Walker had a campaign event. It was in the city of Macon, Georgia. At first, things seemed to be going well for the police cadet. But then things got strange.

A mysterious man ambled on stage. This man’s name is Jason Selvig, and he is part of a comedy duo called “The good liars.” He also happens to be hilarious. And he had a little gift for Walker.

How lovely! It is always nice to receive a present from an admirer, is it not? Only this gift wasn’t something that Walker seemed all too thrilled with. Selvig unwrapped it himself. What could be in there? Everybody wanted to know. It was a roll of condoms.

Bright, beautiful condoms, a gift Walker REALLY needs, although judging from the expression on his face, he doesn’t seem to think so. The two men — Selvig and Walker — actually spoke for a minute before Walker eventually walked away.

Without the condoms. Oh, dear. No doubt this was a gift that Walker could have used. Even his own son had previously posted on Twitter admonishing Walker and saying, “wear a condom.”

Of course, this moment made it onto Twitter. And faster than one could say protection, Twitter users made their thoughts on the subject known:

“Now, who’s going to show him how to use it?”

“Does he know what a condom IS?”

“Vicious yet beautiful.”

“When the rubber meets the road.”

“Maybe he’s allergic.”

“You’re lucky he didn’t pull out his badge and arrest you.”

“Another rejected intervention.”

So yes, it was an amusing day at that event for everyone BUT Herschel Walker.
