THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT'S LAST DITCH EFFORTS TO STOP ROY MOORE FROM WINNING PRIMARY RUNOFF
Nextrush Free ^ | 9/19/2017 | Nextrush/Self

When he was interviewed on "60 Minutes" recently, former White House strategist Steve Bannon cited Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell as a great enemy of President Trump, even greater than House Speaker Paul Ryan.

McConnell's Super PAC and allied interests have relentlessly dumped millions into Alabama to fuel a massive media campaign to smear Judge Roy Moore and prevent him from winning the runoff election next Tuesday.

One ad claims Moore does not support President Trump's notion of a wall on the southern border, even though Moore has publicly said he supports President Trump including "the Wall".

As we all learned from the 2016 Republican primary season, the countless debates served one purpose. They were designed to destroy candidates not approved by the Republican Establishment and ended up being a gauntlet to destroy Donald J. Trump.

Appointed Senator Luther Strange's efforts to push Roy Moore into debates recently were all couched in high sounding language with the implication that Moore didn't want to debate.

For Moore, it was important that a debate not be a rehash of the nasty and destructive formats used against Donald Trump during last year's presidential campaign.

Moore called for a 'man to man' debate with his opponent.

In the end, Moore got Strange to agree to a Lincoln-Douglas type debate with no biased reporters or moderators in the picture, just the two candidates stating their cases. That debate is set for Thursday at 5:30 Central Time in Montgomery.

On Saturday President Trump will speak at a rally for Strange in Huntsville.........

“Trump will realize that the movement he harnessed was never about him, but rather what he stood for”
That is exactly correct!

Why is the President even lifting a finger for that turtle from Kentucky??? What has he done for the President lately? Hope the fine people in Alabama do the right thing. Judge Moore has been through the fire and needs to be in WDC!!

Important to remember that Roy Moore is 70 years old, one year younger
than President Donald J. Trump.

****************

It is also important to remember that seniority is an important
factor in the Senate. Trump’s tenure is limited to 8 years.

Technically anyone who voted in the Democrat primary last month can’t vote in this Republican runoff, but will any of the local RINO election officials, especially in Jefferson County (Birmingham-RINOland) be checking voters at the door????????

Hopefully Moore's people will have enough poll watchers stationed.

I have noticed a change in the Strange ads.

He now is sounding more conservative than Jesse Helms.

Must be getting coached by John McCain on how to con the rubes.

“the point IS the Trump WANTS him there period....”
**********************************
So? Voters in Alabama who want to ADVANCE TRUMP’S MAGA AGENDA WILL VOTE FOR MOORE. Those who want to support McConnell’s obstruction of that agenda will vote for Strange.

With which side do YOU stand?

McConnell has a lot of seniority in the Senate. Is that a good thing?

Funny, seniority in the Senate is not determined by your age but how long you have served in the Senate.

Didn’t say it was a good thing but it is what it is.
The longer you are there the more influence you have.

Seems to me that a true Republican would support Roy Moore,but a RINO....maybe not so much.

The Uniparty is trying to re-run their Mississippi strategy.
The Cheap Labor Express doesn’t want to lose their newest member.
