What about the opponent, Luther Strange?
What’s the story on him?
Roy Moore owes this to McConnel and the rest of the RINO establishment types in Alabama, Had the “moderates” in Alabama rejected McConnel and his cronies in the state, and put up an establishment-rejecting “moderate” Alabama conservative, instead of strange Strange, they might have beaten Moore.
I think Trump is not serving himself well, helping to protect McConnell by backing Strange. The GOP grass roots is ready to reject more establishment GOPers who are voting against Trump’s agenda, and a Moore win could give wind to the sails of that effort. Backing Strange is backing McConnell is backing the GOP establishment and its agenda of working against Trump’s.
