After being called out for flashing what some thought was a fake police badge at a debate last week, Republican Senate hopeful Herschel Walker is using the moment to double down on his support of law enforcement, having ordered 1,000 imitation badges to distribute at an upcoming fundraiser.
NBC reported that Walker's campaign strategist, Gail Gitcho, wants to hand out the badges as a fundraising prop at an event Thursday in Macon, Ga., and specifically called out criticism from his opponent, Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock, who accused Walker of pretending to be an officer after the former football star pulled out the badge on stage.
