President Trump said that a primary win by Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore will open the seat for a Democratic win during a radio appearance Monday.
Trump, who traveled to Alabama Friday to stump for Sen. Luther Strange (R-Ala.), told the syndicated "Roy & Bubba" radio show based out of Birmingham, Alabama that Democrats will pour millions of dollars into the election if their candidate goes up against Moore.
"Luther Strange is going to be a great Senator. He loves Alabama, he loves the states and he loves the country. He will absolutely win against the Democrat, Trump said, according to Alabama.com.
Ray will have a hard time. If Luther wins, the Democrats will hardly fight. If Ray wins (Democrats) will pour in $30 million."
Trump also initially called Moore by the wrong name during the interview, referring to him as Ray Moore.
When host Rick Burgess pointed out that Moores name is Roy, Trump responded that its not a good sign" if the president doesnt know his name.
"I don't know that much about Roy Moore. Roy Moore is going to have a very hard time getting elected against the Democrat, Trump said. Against Luther they won't even fight."

No help for WHAT? If you believe in the Constitution, you must oppose the Swamp, and support Moore. Strange Luther is the Swamp. He is freaking as corrupt as it gets.
The republican nominee will win. I know several that feel just like I do. If Roy wins the runoff, I will gladly support him. The same for Luther.
No way I would ever support an anti-American, pro-abortion, divisive, pro-illegal immigration and muzzie refugee, anti-business, anti-whitey, anti-male, pro-perversity, anti-faith group democrat (that is all of them).
Trump hasn’t deviated from his Agenda. You’re the one who is wobbling.
Vote for Jeb cuz Trump can’t win!
Lighten up Francis.
I don’t see Moore = Rand Paul at all.
Trump is entitled to be wrong at times.
“Atkins” (sic) is stupid. Moore is not.

You’ve just exposed your willingness to back the hack Strange Luther, so I am a “dunce”. From a GOP-E guy like YOU, that is high praise.
You didn’t answer my question. Would you like to replace conservative Republicans with GOPe, instead of electing more GOPe?
Moore, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, made the remarks at the Open Door Baptist Church in Enterprise, AL in February. He read from Isaiah 30:12-13 and made the connection.
[B]ecause you have despised His word and trust in perverseness and oppression, and say thereon therefore this iniquity will be to you as a breach ready to fall, swell out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instance,’ Moore said. Sounds a little bit like the Pentagon, whose breaking came suddenly at an instance, doesnt it? If you think thats coincidence, if you go to verse 25, there should be up on every high mountain and upon every hill rivers and streams of water in the day of the great slaughter when the towers will fall.’
You know, weve suffered a lot in this country, maybe, just maybe, because weve distanced ourselves from the one that has it within his hands to heal this land, he added.
She got divorced from her husband. She filed notice with the court that she was moving to Bham from Tuscaloosa with her shared custody son. She gave the address of the house she was moving to in court documents in 2011. (Luthers neighborhood when he lived in Bham.)
It was in an extremely wealthy neighborhood. House valued at $450,000. But it wasnt foreclosed on until 2012 and her high bid of $30,000 was accepted. Curious that she listed THIS ADDRESS in court papers when it wasn't even on the market!
A blogger wrote about that. A friendly to Luther judge ordered him to take the post down and another post saying Jennifer and Luther had an affair. The blogger refused. The judge put him in jail. He lost his home to foreclosure.
Fast forward: Alabama governor Robert Bentley is embroiled in an affair with a much younger married woman from his church. He puts the mistress and her husband on the state payroll.
The mistress basically begins to run the state. Lots of illegal things happen, not the least of which is the governor being caught on tape in a serious sexual conversation with the young lady.
He and she are getting dark money and open a safe deposit box together. Everyone knows that to get something on the Bentleys desk it goes through Rebecca. So money flowed.
The same blogger who broke the alleged Luther/Jennifer affair broke the news of what the elderly Governor of Alabama was doing with his hook-up hottie Rebecca Mason. The Alabama media refused to touch it and gave the luv guv a free pass to continue raping the state.
Then the govs long suffering wife left her phone on record while she went on a beach walk and the lecherous old luv guv called his young mistress and proceeded to tell her what he wanted to do.
Someone unknown took the file to a gas station (on a jump drive) and called YellowHammer news, conservative news outlet in Alabama. (Former owner Cliff Sims now works for Trump.) Yellowhammer broke the story and then the chips all started falling.
But it took months for governor to get investigated. I mean, this just went on and on. Then Jeff Sessions was tapped for AG by Trump and Gov. Bentley took this opportunity to make a deal with Big Luther Strange.
Gov. appointed Luther to the senate and Luther called off the investigation into the gov and his mistress.
So it took even more months for things to be resolved. A new AG came in and got the gov. out, but a lot of people who did a lot of bad things walked because Luther called off the dogs.
The Gov. had members of his staff who knew about the affair targeted. He fired the head of the Alabama Law Enforcement, ALEA, Spencer Collier and accused him of stealing just to cover up his own crimes with his mistress and the dark money.
The gov attacked and sicked law enforcement on people who wrote about the affair. (This was blogger Roger Schuler and attorney David Watkins who broke the story first when no one else would.) Watkins owns a bank and Bentley had false investigations started on his bank.
There is soooo much more evil that went on and a lot of innocent people got hurt. And it went on far longer than it had to, all because Big Luther stopped the investigation so he could be appointed senator.

What possible reason could Trump have for doing this? What leverage does Turtle have?
I find that difficult to believe.
I don’t expect Trump to be right 100% of the time. I think he’s wrong on this one. The only good reason I could think of is that he is giving the issue some publicity. Reverse psychology?
The “I’m not a witch’ ad for O’Donnell was by an establishment campaign advisor she made the mistake of hiring.
What possible reason could Trump have for doing this? What leverage does Turtle have?
POTUS obviously doesn’t want another do nothing maverick in the Senate. The beltway has enough drama queens already. It doesn’t need more.
It’s Alabama, not Maryland or Virginia. Moore will win in November if he wins the primary.
We have a "Winner!"IMO
My observation: I worked on a state legislative race here in Michigan. Dems went in heavy, GOP State and some National went in even heavier; Roger Hauk, an unknown Republican won with three times as many votes. It can be done! I saw it.
I can’t imagine traditional Catholics voting for someone named Luther.
