one hours = only hours
Trump knew all this probably...Moore was pretty much a loon long before this...thanks again bama...
The morale of the story is trust President Trump.
I wonder if had Moore won, even with a decisive victory, he’d still be very much that immediate centre of controversy with the Dem/RINO people and their friends in the media yelling sexism, racism, Islamophobia, homophobia, etc and that there was even the idea being floated that they would not even let him take the seat without a formal inquiry into his past (regardless if fair or unfair).
Maybe and hopefully, the continued exposure of establishment corruption can still be the centre of attention even more so without Moore being in the immediate picture.
The Republican voters stayed home and they’ll do it again.
Pass Trump’s agenda or the mid-terms will be a blood bath - the Republicans will stay home - we’ve seen it before. The problem is I don’t think the Republicans care - for 2 reasons:
1. This whole leading thing is hard and they don’t like the responsibility
2. And more importantly: they can’t let Trump succeed. How do you let a non-politician come to DC and fix everything in less than 2 years when they couldn’t do it for decades - besides, the don’t want it fixed.
So, be ready for next fall - it will be as ugly as this race was.
Good post. I know Trump backed Strange...I’m just wondering what Alabama Republicans saw in Moore that they didn’t see in Strange?
Flashback to last September:
Swamp creature/lobbyist Strange wasn’t exactly a great choice either.
We told Trump he was wrong and helped McConnell go back to foot dragging mode when we didn't follow through by supporting Moore with everything the Left supported Jones with - I saw one stat that said Moore was outspent 14:1 over a certain period of time.
Democrats won a very dirty tactical victory with the help of the Republican entrenched elite, but they may lose the war.
The Roy Moore controversy really overshadowed the 2016 Democrat election scandals that are beginning to boil over.
If Moore had been elected the media circus would have dogged him for the next year as the Democrats would have made in the poster boy for the 2018 elections.
The media frenzy on Moore taking his seat in the Senate would have sucked all the oxygen out of the room and left no room for headlines on the uncovering of the Hillary Clinton cover up an the attempted coup against Trump by the DOJ, FBI and American intelligence community.
Roy Moore fading from the scene clears the airwaves for the scandals that are about to rock the nation as the Mueller Investigation is exposed as a partisan witch hunt and part of an ongoing attempt by high level government officials to cover up the Hilary Clinton and Obama Administration misconduct, abuse of power and attempts to steal the 2016 election.
Republicans are going to be really mad when they figure out how badly they were played by dirty tricks in the Roy Moore debacle.
The upcoming scandals are all about exposing Democrat dirty tricks and and election chicanery.
Democrats won't have Roy Moore as a lightning rod to distract the public from the emerging scandals, Democrats have opened the sexual harassment floodgates and they won't have Moore as their "Sexual Predator" whipping boy to hide behind and the fallout from the dirty tricks being exposed in the Clinton/Obama/Russia/FBI scandals could really hurt them in the Democrats in the 2018 mid term elections.
A lot of people have been wondering why there was such huge effort to kill Roy Moore and that there must be more to the story.
A huge number of serious scandals are about to hit the Democrats and having Jones in the Senate is going to really help them fight off the emerging scandals.
Good analysis by the article author.
This article needs pinging out to all the chicken littles and doom-and-gloom posters on the AL election threads.
1) Debates are basically lose lose propositions. Trump lost 2 and tied in the third
2) The media controls the narrative here so why does the author think Luther wouldn’t have been slammed with fake accusations like Moore was?
2) Rinse repeat for this strategy. Expect it to be used at the next bunch of Senate runs and probably just as successfully. The media already has 60% of Americans believing Russia colluded with Trump’s campaign. Despite ZERO evidence. The media says it = it must be true. Fox News is even celebrating this win for Jones, and they are just as much the fake news as any other network.
