The GOP nominee for a Senate seat in Georgia made the remark days after President Joe Biden signed into law a bill that will spend billions to address climate change.

Akili-Casundria Ramsess / AP file, the Republican nominee for a Senate seat in Georgia, blasted a new law that's aimed in part at fighting climate change, arguing it will waste money on trees.

"They continue to try to fool you like they're helping you out, but they're not," Walker said Sunday at a Republican Jewish Coalition event in Sandy Springs,."They're not helping you out, because a lot of the money is going into trees. You know that, don't you? It's going into trees. We've got enough trees. Don’t we have enough trees around here?”by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The bill Biden signed will raise about $700 billion through corporate tax increases and prescription drug savings and spend about $400 billion on clean energy and health care provisions.

What is the matter with him we need to replace all the trees that are removed and burnt every day

Herschel Walker should be in a rehabilitation facility dealing with his NFL-caused head trauma. He can't handle a debate against a ten-year old let alone a fully grown adult. The GOP is a pathetic crime syndicate that loves using random tokens to give the illusion of inclusivity

Wow! He can’t be serious.

Now where's that darn Trump rake ?

How can this dunce get even one vote?

Is he a scientist?

Enough trees around here? Herschel Walker, do you know the basic function and the importance of a living tree?

Wow.. dude setting our people back by decades

It would be so much funnier if he wasn’t a serious candidate.

😫

Srsly?

Valedictorian at Trump University!The best and the brightest

Fucking genius right there. Georgia should be proud to have him as a senator.

Poor guy. I actually feel sorry for him. Clearly he is not fit to hold public office. GOP just pushed him out there because of his name.

Is he talking about the trees inside his skull? Plenty there by the looks of it….. Guy is an embarrassment.

We don't.

He is so thick he will be elected !!!!

Maybe he should stick to topics he's familiar with..like football 🏈

Oof.

This man....

Wow!!! That’s all I got is Wow!

As a post...

Trump convinced this guy to make a fool of himself. That was the goal all along.

Georgia please!!!!

probably the most embarassing candidate the rethugs have and most of them are bottom of the barrel
