Roy Moore: Mitch McConnell Afraid Because ‘I Will Not Be Controlled’
breitbart.com ^ | 11/19/17 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 11/19/2017 4:42:12 PM PST by cotton1706

Speaking in an exclusive radio interview, senatorial candidate Roy Moore charged the establishment wing of the Republican party—led by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell—is in cahoots with the Democratic Party to stop Moore’s campaign.

Moore framed the Alabama senate race as representing a critical juncture for the future of the country, explaining that a revolution in the Senate is necessary in order for Trump to enact his populist agenda, especially on border security and repealing and replacing Obamacare.

Moore charged that McConnell and establishment Republicans can only support candidates that “they could control.”

“Well I have never been controlled. I do not want to be controlled and I certainly will not be controlled when I come to Washington,” Moore stated.  “I will decide on issues independently by listening to my colleagues, discussing matters with them. I will make up my own mind.”

He said that McConnell and establishment politicians are afraid of him because he is “not your typical Republican. Not only do I believe in conservative fiscal issues, but I also believe in moral and conservative social issues.”

This is a most effective campaign strategy, imo. And it has the additional benefit of being true.

RINO Ryan and McConnell the hated GOP head MUST GO.

They have covered up every atrocity from Benghazi
to the IRS attacks to their use of unmasking
to kickbacks for themselves from trade deals.

Yes.

McConnell and Moore both clearly understand exactly what this election is about. I think the voters of AL also see it for what it is.

Everyone also needs to know that the main person driving the hateful media coverage in Alabama (and the cover-up of the forged yearbook) is an alleged lesbian.

It’s time to talk less about your adversaries and focus on what you will do for Alabama as Senator compared to what Jones will do. Lay out your platform, beat the bushes, hold rallies with good Alabama music and singing. Alabama is a proud state - use that spirit for good.

In the meanwhile let some investigators who support you find out who got to the accusers lined up, who paid, who are they really, why now and not in past years. Get some accurate answers and facts out to the public. But let others to the work and make announcements, not you or your staff.

Alabamians like that Roy Moore won’t be controlled and that he stands for the things they do. God, family, country.

Time to cut the cord to McTurtle! He’s been nothing but a burr in the saddle of Trump and the Republic! Hope he leaves with Ryno under his arm!

Still think he should resign from the republican party after he wins and be seated as an independent.
