Former President Donald Trump endorsed Katie Britt in Alabama's Senate runoff, months after he dropped the endorsement of Rep. Mo Brooks (R).

Britt, who served as the chief of staff for retiring Sen. Richard Shelby, is considered the front-runner in the runoff, though Brooks remains competitive.

Bad call Trump. Can’t get em all right

[TBP]

Thi sis a bad call by Trump. Mo Brooks is one of the best fighters we have in Congress, with a GREAT voting record. He’ll ba a terrific Senator.

[House Atreides]

Oh, pleeeessse… don’t that McConnell operative Britt win.

[Aria]

Why did DJT pull his endorsement of Brooks?

[Lurkinanloomin]

We will NEVER Make America Great Again by electing Assistant Democrats.

[SamAdams76]

Because Brooks got up in front of a Trump rally and told them they needed to "move past" the 2020 election.

Brooks apparently was okay with the election being stolen and thus he does not deserve Trump's support or the support of any patriot.

[who knows what evil?]

Spot on...first Oz, now this...geez, Trump.

[LilFarmer]

And Perdue for GA gov. when Taylor was the MAGA candidate.

[nickcarraway]

Because he wasn’t doing well in the polls.

Brooks was being sued over Jan 6, wasn’t he? Maybe he was trying to cover his behind???

Jan 6 has been a big mess for so many. Sure wish Trump hadn’t urged people to come to DC that day. It was so foreseeable that Trump supporters would be at risk, in a Dem-run city with a history of anti-Trump violence. Besides, the planned debate in Congress over voting controversies deserved to get the attention - instead it was cancelled because of the riot.

Trump is not a careful, strategic man. Too much thoughtlessness and even recklessness.

Brooks is the Roy Moore candidate. Neanderthal. Doesn’t mean it’s true but Trump won’t take chances.

[blam]

I’ll still vote for Mo again.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Young(40). Easy on the eyes. Those things count. Contrast the old and uglies running in other states(Murray, Hassan, even Murkowski). Trump’s on to something.

I just worry Herschel is a gamble. The MSM will do the dirty work Warnock won’t.

[Pollard]

Seems both AL and GA are screwed up. Co-opted and/or in white guilt mode.

[TakebackGOP]

Britt is going to be a Mitch ally. She is lying that she is against the aid to Ukraine. Once she is elected, she’ll vote for whatever Mitch wants.

[Lisbon1940]

It was partial or incomplete, or both.

"Brooks apparently was okay with the election being stolen and thus he does not deserve Trump's support or the support of any patriot."

Incorrect. Mo Brooks was one of the few politicians to publicly support Trump in the aftermath of the 2020 election. Mo Brooks spoke publicly about the steal in December, 2020. I remember listening to that rally in my car that day.

Mo also spoke at the Jan 6 rally. Later Mo had to defend a lawsuit brought by democrats claiming he was responsible for inciting the Jan 6 trespassing debacle.

More recently Mo has battled with the MSM in interviews about the 2020 election and how it was stolen. One recent one was just a few days ago on Fox.

From Fox - "During an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" last week, Rep. Mo Brooks made waves after he tussled with guest host Sandra Smith over the 2020 election results, repeating unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud that have become a rallying cry for the conservative base over the past two years."

So he is still calling out the fraud. Who else in Congress is doing that?

Here is a photo of Mo speaking at the Jan 6 event.

Mo is clueless and has no idea what MAGA folks want. Britt has the baggage of Shelby. Isn’t there anyone else better?

Hannity went after Roy Moore. He had dated some younger women with their parents permission. Hannity made a big deal out of it and acted like he had raped them or something. The women said he asked permission before he kissed them.

This was common in the South for men to become financially secure before marrying a younger woman.

No one gave a thought when Elvis had young 14 year old Priscilla move in with him.

Loretta Lynn was 15 when she married.

Hannity treated Moore like a pedophile even though the girls were of age, but younger than Judge Moore.
