Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and several other Republican senators said on Thursday if allegations are true, Alabama Senate Republican candidate Judge Roy Moore should drop out of the race.
The Washington Post released a story on Thursday alledging that Moore initiated a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old girl when he was 32, as well as other cases of sexual misconduct.
Moore denied the allegations.
These allegations are completely false and are a desperate political attack by the National Democrat Party and the Washington Post on this campaign, Moore said.
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said, If these allegations are true, he must step aside.
Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) argued, If there is any shred of truth to the allegations against Roy Moore, he should step aside immediately.
Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) said, If there is any truth at all to these horrific allegations, Roy Moore should immediately step aside as a Senate candidate.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said, Im horrified and if this is true he needs to step down immediately. Murkowski also said that she spoke to Luther Strange about becoming a write-in challenger to oppose Moore in the December 12 election.
Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) said, It was very troubling if what we read is true and people are on the record so I assume it is, adding that Moore should step aside.
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) tweeted on Thursday, The allegations against Roy Moore are deeply disturbing and disqualifying. He should immediately step aside and allow the people of Alabama to elect a candidate they can be proud of.
The Roy Moore campaign said in a subsequent statement that if the allegations were true, they would have surfaced during his previous campaigns. This garbage is the very definition of fake news, he added.

Facebook is posting articles about one of accusers being a hookers and one of them being an active DemocRat.
Those knowingly pushing this smear belong in jail.
No surprises. Were dealing with scum.
Where I differ with most freepers is that I just dont see much for us to win. Were bobbing for apples in a cesspool.
Politics is a scam and were suckers for playing.
These criminals need to be thrown out of the Senate!
It is us voters against the establishment.
Yes people forget the going after Moore is a way to get Bannon as well. Its definitely them trying to take down Bannon. McConnell has a personal thing against Bannon.
Where was Trump angry that Moore won? He congratulated him, please show evidence for your claim.
Sorry.. I don’t serve baby food news to Freepers.. if you can’t search yourself, you should try the telegraph instead. Trump repeated vocalized his spport for corruptocrat strange. Show me your prof that he did support Moore from day one.
Sarah and President Trump for that matter, have said IF these prove to be true...
The never Trumpers are out in full force, leading the way is Ben Shapiro who is uninterested in waiting for evidence. Why anyone on our side trusts that little fraud is a mystery to me.
Where was Trump angry that Moore won? He congratulated him, please show evidence for your claim.
You are absolutely spot on, AAG44.
Trump DID congratulate Moore on his win. Here:
Congratulations to Roy Moore on his Republican Primary win in Alabama, Trump wrote on Twitter.
The president endorsed Moores opponent Sen. Luther Strange in the primary, after he was appointed by the former Alabama governor to replace Sen. Jeff Sessions after he took the job as Attorney General in the Trump administration.
Luther Strange started way back & ran a good race, Trump wrote.
Roy, WIN in Nov! he added, appearing not to know that the special election to replace Sessions is scheduled for December. He later corrected the tweet, deleting the previous statement.
Trump campaigned for Strange last Friday, admitting that he might have made a mistake but that his decision to endorse was about loyalty.
On Monday, Trump promised to work hard for Moore, should he emerge as the winner.
I told Luther, and I have to say this, if his opponent wins, Im going to be here campaigning like hell for him, Trump said in an interview on the Rick and Bubba radio show.

mom throws out a smear, then attacks with a snide comment, rather than provide any proof, when asked by SEVERAL FReepers. Just rude.
Little Ben Shapiro was a NeverTrumper (as were Dana Loesch, Katie Pavlich, etc), since DAY ONE.
They backpedaled when they realized they were on the losing side of NOT supporting Trump/MAGA.
Now that the RINO/NWO long knives are out for Moore, the snakes are slithering out of their fake support skins. Telling, isn’t it?
Thank you Jane, I had every reason to believe I remembered it correctly and I appreciate you filling in the blanks.
Mom is a Trump malcontent and always seems to go for the smear. Exhausting but so predictable!
Yes! They are so transparent and I wish I had the opportunity to meet any of them face to face, such little lying cowards they are.
I went to twitter this am (such a cesspool) and lil Benny just can’t stop himself, along with the conga line of haters. I hope this blows back on them so fast and hard, I’m disgusted by those on ‘our side’ who continue to fight against us vs. with us.
You betcha.
We have enough Deep State/Swamp creatures to fight...the last thing we need is that smear carap, here.
You really are quite consumed with your disdain for all things President Trump. I am not asking you to feed me anything, what a silly thing to say. I WAS asking for you to provide some evidence for your fake comment that President Trump was ‘mad’ that Moore won.
I see you have no evidence, just lame comments.
Oh, btw, I never suggested he supported Moore during the primary.
What exactly is your issue??
When accused, the Democrats say, “drag a $100 bill through a trailer park, you never know what you’ll find” while the Republicans say, “step aside”.
This thing is so obviously a fraud, and so obviously from McConnell, it really raises the stakes in the Uniparty vs. America war tremendously.
America badly needs McConnell to fail.
