Summary

Donald Trump has nominated former NFL star and ex-Senate candidate Herschel Walker as the U.S. ambassador to the Bahamas.

Walker, who lacks diplomatic experience, previously co-chaired Trump’s council on health, nutrition, and fitness.

His 2022 Georgia Senate campaign was marred by scandals, including allegations of paying for abortions despite his anti-abortion stance, threats against his ex-wife, and false claims about his education and career.

Walker’s long-standing relationship with Trump dates back to the 1980s when he played for Trump-owned New Jersey Generals.

    Good for him. This guy obviously has a lot of problems; I’m sure he could use a trip to the Caribbean. And based on the fact that we’ve gotten by without an ambassador to the Bahamas for over a decade, I doubt he’ll mess up any crucial decisions lol
