Walker acknowledges sending $700 check to woman who alleges he paid for abortion but denies it was for that purpose

Republican Georgia Senate nominee Herschel Walker acknowledged he sent a $700 check to a woman who is alleging he paid for her abortion, but he denied it was for that purpose. Walker’s campaign has been rocked by allegations the former football star, who supports a national abortion ban without expectation, asked an ex-girlfriend to have the procedure twice and paid for it on the occasion she did. CNN Chief Political Correspondent Dana Bash tells Anderson Cooper whether she thinks Georgia voters care about Walker’s changing stories. Plus, actor William Shatner joins AC360 to discuss his new book, “Boldly Go: Reflections on a Life of Awe and Wonder.”

Guests: Dana Bash, William Shatner.
