Former NFL star Herschel Walker has spoken out to fire back at Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) after she said she would “never forgive” black Americans who voted for President Donald Trump.
Maxine Waters Will ‘Never Forgive’ Black Pro-Trump Voters
Maxine Waters said that black Trump voters are ‘Shameful’ and she will ‘never ever forgive them.’
I say, what’s shameful is she sold out black people to the Democrats for power and for that she is a traitor.

While appearing on “The Joe Madison Show” on SiriusXM earlier this week, Maxine Waters said that she could not even fathom the idea of black voters supporting Trump.
“It just hurts me so bad to see Blacks talking about supporting Trump,” the radically liberal congresswoman said. “I don’t know why they would be doing it. I don’t know why it is on their minds.”
“For those Black young men who think somehow they can align themselves with Trump, not only are they terrible mistaken, any of them showing their face, I will never, ever forgive them for undermining the possibility to help their own people and their own communities,” Waters added, according to Newsweek.

Walker, however, was not having any of it.
A proud friend and supporter of Trump himself, Walker fired back at Waters by pointing out that blacks may be flocking to Trump because they feel let down by Democrat leaders at both the federal and state levels.
“She’s been in office for a long, long time. Have you seen her pass any laws for social justice? Have you seen her pass anything to make anything equal? I don’t want to hear them [the Democrats] putting the blame on anyone else,” Walker said on Tuesday while appearing on Fox Business Network.
“Now she is upset that people are starting to educate themselves and see policies that fit them. […] So don’t come here to me with this rhetoric right now.”

“I want people to realize that the person that should be in office is someone who cares about America, someone who cares about the people and someone who’s not going to try to put money in his pockets but put it in the people’s pockets,” he added.
Herschel Walker later tweeted out the clip of him taking on Maxine Waters with this caption, “Please forgive me for looking out for people of Color & America.”

Herschel Walker: Trump Is Not Racist
Walker has been one of the few celebrities to publicly defend Trump.
At the RNC and then again recently, the Heisman Tropher winner shot down claims made by the left that the president is racist.
“I want America to know the truth. Donald Trump is not a racist,” Walker said two weeks ago.
“It’s tough because we have become so political today, and the worst thing that you can say to someone today is that ‘he’s a racist,'” he added. “They take bits and parts of a speech and they try to make him a racist, and that’s what’s very, very sad to me and the reason I got involved.”
If only there were more celebrities out there who saw the world like Walker does!
