HipHopWired Featured Video Source: The Washington Post / Getty An attempt by Newt Gingrich to endorse Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker over Sen. Raphael Warnock wound up being deeply offensive. As the runoff election to decide who will occupy the Senate seat from Georgia approaches, many on the right wing are lending support to the GOP’s candidate Walker. Former House Speaker Gingrich, who also represented Georgia, went on conservative personality Charlie Kirk’s show to endorse Walker over the incumbent Democratic Senator Warnock with an eye-raising opinion. Gingrich expressed that despite both candidates being Black, he felt Walker stood out more because of his business acumen and struggles with mental health. “I think that Herschel Walker has the courage, the integrity to be a...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Megan Varner / Getty Herschel Walker is reportedly locked in a tight race with incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock in Georgia, but he’s doing a lot to undo his supposed momentum ahead of the election.
