Herschel chastised over ‘prop’ badge by debate moderator…

Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee in the Georgia Senate race, was chastised by a debate moderator Friday night after he used a “prop” badge in an attempt to prove he works with law enforcement.The big picture: Walker faced a number of questions about his past throughout the midterm elections debate between himself and Sen. Raphael Warnock (D‑Ga.) on Friday night.What happened: During the debate, Warnock challenged Walker about the Heisman trophy winner’s claim that he worked in law enforcement.Walker, in response, flashed a badge on stage, saying, he does “work with many police officers.”A moderator then chastised him for flashing the badge since, she said, it’s against the rules to use props in the debate.“Well, it’s not a prop. This is real,” Walker responded.“It is considered a prop. You’re very well aware of the rules, aren’t you?” the moderator said.Context: Walker has claimed to be a member of law enforcement. But the Atlanta Journal-Constitution first reported that Walker was an honorary deputy at the Cobb County Police Department.Go deeper … Warnock, Walker square off in debate for key Senate seat …
