The internet is up in arms about Home Depot after reports it allegedly donated serious dough to Herschel Walker‘s U.S. Senate campaign — and while the company tells us it didn’t happen, it’s also clarifying where the wires got crossed.
A rep for Home Depot tells TMZ the claims just aren’t true … specifying, “Home Depot’s PAC (political action committee) hasn’t donated to Walker’s or (Raphael) Warnock‘s campaigns.”
We’re told the connection to the company likely came out because Home Depot’s co-founder, Bernie Marcus, did donate to Walker’s campaign. The company rep points out Marcus left the company more than 2 decades ago, adding “his views do not represent the company.”
People online have been calling for a boycott of Home Depot following the reports claiming the company donated more than $1 million to Walker’s campaign.
The rep says Home Depot is “working on correcting misinformation online now.”
As we reported, the ex-NFL star and Senate candidate has been getting dragged over his “pro-life” beliefs … in light of a woman coming forward and insisting Walker got her pregnant and paid for her to have an abortion in 2009.
Walker’s conservative son, Christian, posted a video shortly after his dad denied the abortion claim … accusing his father of, among other things, threatening to kill him and his family in the past.
