Trump plays down Roy Moore allegations, blasts 'liberal rival' in Alabama race

"I can tell you one thing for sure," Trump told reporters as he left the White House for a Thanksgiving break at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla. . "We don't need a liberal person in there, a Democrat [Doug] Jones ... We do not need somebody that's going to be bad on crime, bad on borders, bad with the military, bad for the Second Amendment."

When pressed on the allegations against Moore, some of which date back 40 years, Trump said, "Look, he denies it ... He says it didn't happen, and you know, you have to listen to him also."

The president also did not rule out that he would campaign for Moore ahead of the Dec. 12 special election, telling the reporters, "I'll be letting you know next week."

Trump hinted that he “might” campaign for Moore. If he does that would clinch a Moore win.

One more thing. Mitch indicated he is out of options to oust Moore. Hey Mitch the old playbook does not work anymore. We are on to your tactics.

Trump is moving in the right direction on this issue.

So much of all this is about timing. The coordinated attack on Moore came a tad early (maybe in an attempt to increase Jones fund-raising and dampen Moore's, or the vain hope thathe would withdraw).

Now, after the best shot is old news, and new false witnesses are more easily exposed (that rumored #6 who was after Moore married never materialized), they've got nothing left in the chambers. Moore already was tough, but every impression he has had of McConnell and his ilk must be solidified by ten in a way not seen since Clarence Thomas.

Bravo, POTUS, Donald J.Trump....the great state of Alabama, it thousands of citizens and voters, eagerly await your arrival in Alabama to support and campaign for Judge, Roy Moore.

Mitch McConnell on suicide watch!

Agree that they pulled the trigger on this too early. That leads me to believe that Turtle was behind it. Plan was probably to force Moore out and try to retain a GOPe seat with a write-in (see Alaska for the playbook). Moore, however, refused to crawl away and die (and Strange (strangely) did not go along with write-in plan), so now it is back to Moore or Jones and Jones is obviously out of step with Alabama political beliefs.

If the RATs had been behind this, they would have waited until after Thanksgiving. I think the Access Hollywood tape taught them not to deploy a smear too long before an election.

I believe in Judge Moore.

, Trump said, “Look, he denies it ... He says it didn’t happen, and you know, you have to listen to him also.”

thank the Lord for a bit of common sense! innocent until proven guilty! Now that is a LEADER!

Moore, like Trump, terrifies the swamp. Neither is a member of the Owl Society. Neither is willing to ignore or join the elite pedophile rings.

Watch. Just after the first of the year, something like 1,500 indictments will be unsealed — almost all related to the pedophile rings. Lots of top swamp creatures a already wearing ankle monitors. Ozero got his fitted during “jiury duty” in Chicago.

Things are going to get interesting!

I would hazard that the fact that Trump's strongest (initial) statement against Moore was that he believed that if Moore was guilty, he'd do the right thing.

Trump didn't condemn or aggressively back Moore because if things had turned South, it would have been a mess, has already assured Moore of a win - this is just lagniappe - especially since the People kept funding Moore even as the GOPe?RINOs/RNC tried to leave him too broke to fight back.
