President Trump: Tweeting about Moore and More
by Daveda Gruber:
Doug Jones got harsh words from President Trump on Twitter while he was silent on GOP candidate Roy Moore. Still, Trump mentioned Luther Strange along with his thoughts on a couple of Democrats.
The political position is not an easy one for the president. He and fellow Republicans badly need to keep the Alabama Senate seat. The seat was left open after GOP Sen. Jeff Sessions became U.S. attorney general. They have just a narrow 52-46 member majority in the Senate.
Moore is a Christian conservative. He has been accused in recent weeks of sexual misconduct with teenage women about four decades ago. He has denied the allegations. He refuses to quit the race. Election Day will be on December 12.
Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., unsuccessfully backed Moore’s rival in the Alabama GOP primary, Luther Strange. He is the more moderate Republican appointed to Sessions’ seat until the election.
if the allegations against Moore are true, Trump has said Moore should step aside.
Trump said, “I can tell you one thing for sure: We don’t need a liberal person in there, a Democrat Jones.”
He also said Moore “denies” the allegations.
Trump said, “He says it didn’t happen. He said 40 years ago this did not happen.”
