Chris Hayes couldn't resist nailing GOP and Fox for their big red wave that wasn't and the biggest red drip, Herschel Walker
December 27, 2022

Chris Hayes goes All In to do a review of 2022, including a focus on how Republicans managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. To drive the point home, Hayes gives a run down of many seats Democrats typically lose during midterm elections versus the results from the 2022 elections.

Immediately afterwards, Hayes ran a montage of the GOP and Fox predicting the Big Red Wave and the Big Red Tsunami, neither of which occurred. He ended this particular segment with a tribute to what did happen - the Big Red Drip, aka Herschel Walker:

Hayes played another series of clips, in which Fox News anchor Sean Hannity said, "Herschel's enthusiasm in the state of Georgia seems to be through the roof," and Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) plugged his campaign website.

"Well, just hours after the polls closed, MSNBC News called it, and Herschel Walker was one of the weakest candidates in modern political history. Frankly, he had no business running for a Senate seat," said Hayes. He "lost to Senator Raphael Warnock, securing an astonishing midterm election result for the Democratic Party and President Joe Biden."

I don't know who the political strategists were for the Republicans, but they really should retain them for the next several elections.
