Trump calls on former NFL player Herschel Walker to run for Senate in Georgia
Fox News
Former President Trump surpassed his usual endorsements Wednesday, this time instead calling on former NFL player Herschel Walker to run for Senate in Georgia.
Former Sen. David Perdue, R, has ruled out a run in 2022, but Sen. Kelly Loeffler and Rep. Doug Collins, who lost a primary to Loeffler, are both mulling another run. A run for her old seat is "certainly on the table," Loeffler told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution last month. "Am I open to considering a run for the Senate or governor? Yes," Collins told the Journal-Constitution. A GOP source close to Collins told Fox News last month that any announcement from Collins on a Senate run would likely have to come by early April "at the latest." All of Georgia's Republicans were staunch supporters of Trump, but none so much as Collins, who frequently bashed Loeffler as not being loyal enough to the then-president.
