Rep Peter King: Moore Must ‘Prove His Innocence’ or ‘Step Down’
Breitbart ^ | 10 Nov 2017 | PAM KEY

Posted on 11/11/2017 5:52:54 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Friday on MSNBC, Rep. Peter King (R-NY) said Alabama Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore should “prove his innocence” of sexual abuse accusations or “step down.”

King said, “Ordinarily, the person is entitled to the presumption of innocence. But in this case, it’s so serious, and the fact it’s backed up by other women, and it’s so hideous, I would say unless he can prove his innocence, the burden is on him within the next day, or so, he should step down. He owes it to the state and the U.S. Senate.”

It’s possible that Peter King has had sexual congress with a llama.

Or so I’ve heard.

He needs to prove his innocence or step down.

“I heard Pete raped and murdered is high school girlfriend.
He most prove his innocence or resign now! “

I didn’t hear about that one. But I DID hear that Peter King once ate a former homosexual roommate of Lindsey Graham. Peter King must prove his innocence due to the seriousness of the charge.

I'm pretty sure that Peter King just gave liberals a new tactic to get people they don't like out of office or away from running for office.

Just make up an accusation, and "find" others to back up that story, and then another, and another, etc, until the number becomes the "proof". So, the real facts won't matter at that point. It's like the anti-Trump dossier. Fabricate the dossier, and give it "unquestionable" credibility by getting 17 intelligence officials to back up the story in the dossier.

Peter King does not strike me as having common sense behind his statements.

Remember King voting against Clinton’s impeachment, He’s basically a Democrat in sheep’s clothing.

And King should prove that he is a constitutional conservative and not a RINO or he should step down?

Exactly! Alabama citizens determine if Judge Moore is elected, not the GOPe who hate him.

If he did do anything with a 14yr old it was probably legal in Alabama in 1979 anyway.

If the charges disappear after he is elected, I guess they didn’t matter.

I am aghast this so-called Constitutional officer said such a heinous thing. Unbelievable.
