Trump Doubles Down On Roy Moore: 'I Think He's Going To Do Very Well'

Source: Talking Points Memo




By ESME CRIBB Published DECEMBER 5, 2017 1:02 PM

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, who numerous women have accused of sexual misconduct, is the candidate who will deliver “the things” that he and his party “represent.”

“I think he’s going to do very well,” Trump said in response to a reporter’s shouted question during a photo opportunity at the White House.

He said Republicans “don’t want to have a liberal Democrat in Alabama.”

“Believe me. We want strong borders. We want stopping crime. We want to have the things that we represent,” Trump said.

to watch if kids were around.

Old Trump may not have a conviction, but he damn sure can't say Moore being banned from the mall, etc., was fake news.

We want stopping crime - well those proposed cuts to housing programs are going to do exactly the opposite.

excuse me for my punch drunk sicko sarcasm

It was surreal enough electing the deceitful, groping, Russian sponsored buffoon to the oval office.

To have to now hold our noses and/or swallow our vomit while a pedophile is elected to the US Senate is a bit too much for me to take.

He's probably looking around for future ex-wife #4, and thinking those 17-year olds don't look half bad.

Teen sex, obviously.

So far Trump's endorsed candidates have lost. Let's hope the same for this one.

It was obvious last week when the GOP, Trump and McConnell all changed their tune and supoorted Moore.

They have to be on record as having supported Moore, since they know he's going to win.
I'm sure Bannon has something to do with this. It's so obvious. Sickening!
