When I first started hearing about Walker's brain trauma, mental health diagnosis, and watched him (I am a retired LCSW specializing in co-occurring mental health issues) ...I thought 1. He is not well & should not be running for anything 2. They are using him because he fulfills a preferred racial stereotype 3. they will toss him aside like a used tissue when they're finished with him. His challenges do not excuse his reported bad behaviors, but for the Republicans put forth this guy as a candidate is absolutely abhorrent. That so many supported his candidacy is a travesty.
