The moment that amateur and professional political observers alike have been waiting for is finally here as Herschel Walker is set to hit the debate stage against Raphael Warnock in hopes of winning the Democrat’s U.S. Senate seat representing the state of Georgia.
What seems like the political event of the year is scheduled to take place on Friday night at 7 p.m. at the JW Marriott Savannah in Savannah’s Plant Riverside District with plenty on the line as Republicans attempt to take back control of the U.S. Senate.

But a campaign with major political implications has in many ways devolved into somewhat of a side-show, what with Walker’s inability to intelligibly express himself coupled with his apparent lack of breadth of policy.

If there’s one thing social media is going to do, it’s going to rally around an event, big or small, and bring attention to it in one way or another. Once your attention is captivated, the next step is to implement the meme and gif treatment, something that Walker has been subjected to seemingly nonstop as damning revelation after damning revelation is reported about him and his campaign.
One group that we can expect to chime in with the most brilliant of gifs and memes about the debate is Black Twitter, the influential social media force that always turns up with issues affecting Black people at stake.

And make no mistake: Walker and Warnock couldn’t be more ideologically different. And with Walker being Trump-adjacent, it’s safe to suspect that him in the U.S. Senate wouldn’t bode well for Black people in Georgia as well as across the United States.
