56% : Former Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker, who graduated from the University of Georgia this week -- some 40 years later than he had claimed while running for the U.S. Senate -- received quite the present from Donald Trump.
51% : The Republican nominee, endorsed by Trump, had a series of missteps.
47% : "A successful businessman, philanthropist, former Heisman Trophy winner, and NFL Great, Herschel has been a tireless advocate for youth sports," Trump continued in his Truth Social post.
44% : "It's unclear why Trump chose Walker for the Bahamas post, though ambassadorships usually are reserved for influential friends or large campaign donors.
41% : Hoping to leverage stars like Walker, who signed with the team in 1983 after capping his third decorated season at the University of Georgia with the Heisman award, the spring league ultimately failed when Trump pushed the other owners to move its games to the fall, in direct competition with the NFL.
36% : Turner would be the sixth Black person to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development, leading one unnamed operative to grouse, "Why is every Black person given HUD?"But count on Trump supporters to back whomever the president appoints because, well, that's what they do.
23% : Another added, "Herschel Walker, violent, serial liar, deadbeat dad, who likely has brain damage per Newt Gingrich, hasn't seen his youngest son since 2016 & didn't raise any of his 4 kids by 4 moms was nominated to be ambassador to the Bahamas by Trump.
