As we come down to the wire on the 2022 midterm elections, it’s a heated race for Georgia’s U.S. Senate seat currently held by Raphael Warnock and challenged by former Georgia Bulldogs star Herschel Walker.

Polls either show a dead heat or have Walker slightly ahead in spite of his many lies and controversies. Many people from around the sports and media world have chimed in about Walker’s fitness for political office and Howard Stern has now shared his thoughts, not just on the former football star but on the Georgians who are considering voting for him.

“Some of these candidates that people are actually — f***ing Herschel Walker. Holy f***. They’re saying he’s gonna win in Georgia,” Stern said.

“Are you f***ing dummies? There’s gonna be — they, you know — and they always talk about another Civil War. I think there is gonna be one. I mean, how could the f*** you elect that guy? You gotta be outta your f***ing skull.”

Stern then commented on concerns over Walker’s mental acumen (he has admitted previously that he has dissociative identity disorder or DID).

“I gotta say, I mean, are you f***ing kidding me? I don’t care what party, what you believe, what you think would be good for America, would you really vote for this f***ing — I don’t know what the F*** he is. I was gonna say like mental case. I don’t — but I don’t even know if that’s fair to mental cases. I just don’t know,” Stern said.
