Donald Trump breaks silence to back Roy Moore staying in Senate race
UK Telegraph ^ | Nov. 16, 2017 | Ben Riley-Smith

Donald Trump has backed Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore remaining in the election race despite multiple claims of sexual harassment of teenage girls.   Mr Trump believes that “Alabama should take the decision” about their next senator and that Mr Moore should only quit if the allegations are proved.

You can say what you want, but Sean Hannity’s behavior is typical of someone who is out for himself. He’s off at our house permanently. He was a disgrace in the way he badgered Judge Moore. He was helping the GOPe with his outlandish behavior.

LOL, you got me... noticed you up-thread.

Not saying she earned a seat at the political table. To the contrary, her politics are quite annoying. That said, Ivanka was outstanding during the 2016 campaign. But her post-election opinions are obviously hers, and hopefully have only measured influence on Dad.

Right or wrong, I see Ivanka as Trump’s daughter, not his advisor.

Just had this discussion with my male cousin and immediately thought of the social structure of the Southern Belle so often described on GOLDEN GIRLS Just imagine Moore being described as THE catch and think how each of he characters would have tried to attrack him. There is the answer to why some were younger and others older — His line about “with their mothers approval”. Explains it all !

Ivanka is a drag on momentum everywhere she goes. Sessions, however, doesn’t go anywhere at all. Ha! Certainly not to work. 😡

Turn off whatever you want. But first of all, Moore’s behaviour on Hannity show started it all. He pretty much admitted he dated underage girls on Hannity’s show by refusing to say he didn’t. So Hannity demanded an explanation. Guys like Cruz were more outrageous. Cruz pulled support. Hannity did not.

Was Luther Strange that bad? I made a thread suggesting Trump (who endorsed Strange) has instincts we should trust and it was promptly deleted by the FR moderators. I do not live in AL obviously.

Roy Moore’s only “crime” is having the audacity to be a white, Christian man in a time when white, Christian men are the most oppressed group in the country. He’s also a threat to the swamp because he wants to restore our Christian republic and bring America back to God. George Soros doesn’t like that!

Trump has had to face down DOZENS of false accusers. But Trump’s obvious Christian faith, seriousness and sterling character make it hard for such fake news to seem credible. Nobody believes any of it. Thus, Trump is loved by the American people and he loves them back. MAGA!

Trump has great political instincts....and he did not endorse Moore remember? Luther Strange was his guy in the primary...but obviously the good people of AL know something I dont.

She wasn't much good to him at ANY time of his run...neither during the primary ( she did NOTHING for him then!) nor during the actual run for the presidency ( when she opened her lefty mouth and talked about child care payments from the Fed Gov! ) and she is, unfortunately, far more than just his daughter.

She told/tells him what to do and what not to do! Sometimes he listens and sometimes he doesn't. Still and all she has his ear far more than Melania, who thankfully hasn't meddled in the politics of it all, has.

It's not just her politics that are "annoying"...SHE is a VERY annoying person ! And before someone decides to call me "jealous", or any other abjectly stupid impugnation, there isn't one singled thing about Ivanaka that I have any reason to be "jealous" of!

This is rehash of the smear job done to Trump last year and the POTUS should be with Roy Moore even more.

He promised to campaign for Roy Moore and it would be good for the POTUS to drop in for a visit.

Cruz needs to answer for his flight from battle.

POTUS, Trump is right on the money. Only the legal registered voters in the state of Alabama can determine the political future of Judge Roy Moore...and no one else. In a “She said, He said” true facts can generally not surface. If the women who say they have been sexually abused by Judge Moore and can prove it before a judge and jury...then Moore should withdraw from the Senate race.

Otherwise...full speed ahead, Judge Moore and good luck!!!

As for Senator, Al Frankan, the facts of his sex crimes are ther for the entire world to see. He must resign from his Senate seat immediately, and both Democrats & Republicans should force him to resign in utter disgrace.

Alabama voters...vote for Judge Roy Moore and MAGA.
