McConnell: Hope Moore Is Prepared For His Ethics Probe

Hopefully Senate Republicans will be prepared for it, too. This leftover from yesterday will take on additional importance if Al Franken resigns tomorrow. Democrats clean up their messes while Republicans get theirs elected will be the cry from the media, ignoring their 25-year record of covering for Bill Clinton’s sexual predation and their efforts to get him back in the White House via Hillary.

But still, that doesn’t mean Republicans won’t have to answer for Moore, and that the need will become more acute if Franken hits the bricks:

The Senate Ethics Committee will immediately launch an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against retired judge Roy Moore if the Republican Senate candidate wins a special election in Alabama next week.

Moore, projected in most public opinion polls to narrowly defeat Democratic attorney Doug Jones, would likely be called to testify under oath.

Senator Menendez has his underage hookers in Dominican Republic. And Graham was a character witness at his trial.

There are lots of DC rumors that Mitchy Mitch was kicked out the US Army for sexually assaulting a male soldier.

Matt Lauer excoriated and tried to humiliate Bill O'Reilly in an interview about sexual harassment.

Sometimes, the biggest accusers are the ones who are most guilty.

If Roy Moore were a more vulgar man, he would publicly tell McConnell to “Go F*** Himself.”

His polling would rise 10 points tomorrow. I guarantee it.

Washington Post SHOCKED that the majority of white women in Alabama don’t believe in the allegations against Judge Moore and they’re also pro life and hell would freeze over before they voted for extreme pro abortion liberal Doug Jones.

Thanks, but I try to avoid reading anything from the WP. They are the king of fake news.

This arrogant man does not even try to disguise threats. I hope they all go down.

McConnell should be prepared to be judged even more harshly, only he will actually be guilty of something.

Bravado! McConnell is scared spitless that Moore is prepared for whatever they throw at him.

McConnell is fully aware of that but this is his last shot at campaigning for a liberal democrat.

Moore has a savvy legal mind. McConnell has a devious political mind. McConnell will have shot his wadding by next Tuesday.

I know.. and a vote against the dems.. but if the republican members who came out today calling for mueller to be investigated, and Bannon is out there ripping mcconnell.. there is a chance he might fear his for his power.. he might find himself on the wrong side of this coming divide .. establishment vs we the people/voters.. I see the uprising on the scene.. and mcconnell is in the crosshairs.

Justice Thomas, would you care to explain why Senator McConnell voted to confirm you yet is a rabid #NeverMoore stooge, when in both cases the "evidence" was one person's word against that of another?

Hope Turtle is up for being thrown out of office for corruption and failure to do his job.

And Moore’s accusers will have to testify under oath. As will Allred. And the yearbook will be analyzed. This is all an idol threat trying to get Alabamans to not vote for him. Oh, I despise McConnell.
