As Georgia Senate candidateHerschel Walkerattempts to bounce back from recent claims that hesecretly fathered multiple childrenandpaid a woman to undergo an abortion, some are continuing to draw attention to the claims in unique ways. Case in point: comedian Jason Selvig, who took to the stage at one of the Republican’s recent campaign rallies to hand Walker a large roll of condoms.
In footage of the exchange, Selvig can be seen approaching Walker as he exited a stage and unrolling a package of condoms. Walker then spoke to Selvig before walking away, though it’s unclear what he said.
Selvig is one half of the comedy duoThe Good Liars, which are known for viral pranks that offer a political message.
Selvig also shared a photo of himself at the event, writing on Twitter: “A Herschel Walker rally can be scary. Luckily I brought protection.”
Walker has publicly denied claims that he’s paid for an abortion, but the woman who made the allegation (allegedly a former girlfriend of the athlete’s) showedThe New York TimesandThe Daily Beasta $575 receipt she received from a women’s clinic in Atlanta after she had the procedure done. She also shared a copy of a $700 check that she alleged the former NFL athlete paid her back with.
Walker has said the claims thathe paid for a former girlfriend’s abortionin 2009 are a “lie,” and that he simply sends money “to a lot of people.”
He told Fox News host Sean Hannity he had “no idea” who the woman making the accusation was.
“I haven’t seen it,“Walker said of the “get well” cardhe also allegedly sent the woman. “I send out so many get well — I send out so much of anything. But I can tell you right now, I never asked anyone to get an abortion. I never paid for an abortion, and it’s a lie. And I’m going to continue to fight.”
