Roy Wood Jr. Steals Some Jokes From … Herschel Walker?
By Hershal Pandya

The Daily Show correspondent Roy Wood Jr. just found the perfect new muse for stand-up material: Georgia Republican senatorial candidate, ex-NFL player, and sentient tree nut Herschel Walker. On November 16, Walker held a rally in McDonough to mobilize voter support ahead of his upcoming runoff election against Raphael Warnock on December 6, and a viral video of his speech inspired Wood to try something new.
“You ever watch a stupid movie late at night hoping it’s gonna get better, it don’t get better, but you keep watching anyway?” Walker asks in the speech. “The other night I was watching this movie called Fright Night — or Freak Night or some kind of night — and it was about vampires. I don’t know if you know, vampires are some cool people, are they not? But I’m gonna tell you something that I found out: A werewolf can kill a vampire, did you know that? I never knew that, so I didn’t want to be a vampire anymore. I wanted to be a werewolf.” It’s uncanny how much Walker sounds like SNL’s James Austin Johnson as Trump talking about Scooby-Doo.



“Elected official? … nah. But ngl, I’d pay $25 and two drink minimum to watch an hour of this shit at the comedy club,” Wood tweeted in response to the clip. Later that night, Wood decided to put an audience’s $25 where his mouth was (so to speak) and see how Walker’s ramblings played at a comedy show. Performing at a secret show at Katz’s Delicatessen in New York, he opened his set with a word-for-word recital of Walker’s babbling, generating a smattering of laughs — albeit some confused ones — from the crowd. “And those were the exact words verbatim from Herschel Walker at his fucking campaign event!” Wood yelled at the end of the bit to huge cheers. He later joked on Twitter that he might have recited even more of the speech, but he “didn’t have enough time to memorize the whole joint.”



Comedians and late-night hosts have been joking about Walker’s politics, hypocrisies, and incoherence since he began his senatorial campaign in August 2021. On November 12, during Dave Chappelle’s controversial SNL monologue, Chappelle called Walker “observably stupid” and said “he looks like he thinks before he makes a move in tic-tac-toe.” But as Wood has shown, the best way to mock Walker is to let his words speak for themselves. Time will tell whether he’ll become senator of Georgia on December 6. But if he loses, he’s nonetheless opened a lot of new doors for himself. As Wood points out, the “man’s got a future in comedy.”

I have been talking about this for a week even before the election. This is partially the reason why republicans did so poorly, especially in northern states. They basically gerrymandered their way into taking over the house barely. generation Z put they ass on notice for 2024.

Nah, no way in hell she becomes a lobbyist. Everyone knows she's a loud mouth idiot.

She'd be the worst lobbyist ever.

Now Fox News or Newsmax os is a different story.
It doesn't matter if she's a loudmouth idiot lol she's a former congresswoman that serves Maga that's all that would factor in.

It absolutely matters.

Being a lobbyist requires someone to have a certain skill set, a degree of intelligence and, most importantly, tact. None of which she has.

Everything you described is why she'd be a shoe in for a position with a right leaning cable news network.

I'm sorry but you are wrong some complete pieces of shit that used to be in the government have been lobbyist she already cleared the hurdle. It doesn't require no fucking unique skills this women has been in the house for a few years that's literally all she will need to qualify.

Tbh we have to be careful it's a large amount of Democratic seats up for reelection in 2024 I think 33 so the math is in Republicans favor in the Senate hopefully we can get the proper turnout again. I think we can but dems will have to do something of substance.

It’s a presidential election so the turnout is going to be there especially from generation Z. Also, the elephant in the room that I stayed it was the elephant in the room with the midterms a lot of baby boomers are dying.
