Accusations of molestations aside, Roy Moore is unfit to serve in the Senate.

He was suspended twice from the Alabama Supreme Court for ethics and constitutional violations.

Well, there ya go. Still, not enough to sway the support of the biggest loser or Moore's fans.

outlets and other journalists (most whom already know the truth) that
every allegation against Moore is false and fabricated. Don't be fooled
by the MSM, Democrats, and Establishment Republicans.
How about a link and a name? Otherwise its no better than the kind of thing Trump supporters would call fake news.

Also the irrefutable evidence would help.

I sense a real desperation from Moore supporters. The election is slipping away.

Running for political office is essentially applying for a job. The opinion of the public is everything. Just like a employer does when screening applicants they have to decide whether or not someone is fit for that job. So the court of public opinion is the perfect way to decide something like this. And its not only the allegations but his being removed from the bench for not following the rule of law. One has to decide if Moore's attitude that theology is more important than the constitution is a disqualifying factor too. All of that has to be weighed in when deciding if Moore is qualified.

Unlike real court the only penalty is not getting hired. Big deal.

Default Why Trump Stands by Roy Moore, Even as It Fractures His Party.

Why Trump Stands by Roy Moore, Even as It Fractures His Party








Privately, Mr. Trump has acknowledged that he is making a cold political calculus in the hope that the Republicans will hold on to the seat. A White House official on Saturday reiterated the president’s view that he believes Mr. Moore should quit the race if the allegations are proved true, but the official stressed that the candidate has denied them.




“We’re going to make it clear to the voters of Alabama that Roy Moore is the candidate to help President Trump get a conservative Supreme Court and cut taxes,” said Brett Doster, a top Moore adviser. “That will be included in our ads, definitely.”




A SMART president would distance themselves from someone like Moore until he was found innocent.
Trump is enough hot water has it is.

the irony being that moore's supporters seem to be the one's that also complain about "activist" judges.

You're looking at this in the abstract, as no big deal. If Moore isn't 'hired,' his opponent is hired. The 'hiring' public has a choice of one or the other. That one Senate vote is a big deal.

Yet the good people from Bama chose him over Strange (himself no prize) but sane in comparison. So ~ this is on them as far as I'm concerned.

Default Is a child molester better than having a Dem voted in? YES it is!

Is a child molester better than having a Dem voted in? That was the question on TV this morning. Well, the answer is a simple YES.

The ignorant Dems just don't get it. That is why they can't understand how someone like Trump ever got in. They thought that when Trump's 'grab her by the *****' comment was broadcast it would have been the end of Trump. Just as many other of Trump's extreme comments and views.

Lets look at this one '*****' issue in realistic terms to help the poor Dems understand how the real world is.

OK, a Rep says to themselves Trump is terrible, he disrespects women, so I will vote for Hil...and then she can confiscate my guns.

OK, a Rep says to themselves, I wont go for a child molester, let me vote Dem...and then they can confiscate my guns.

The Dems have proven time and again what happens to guns when they control a state. Their long term dream is to confiscate all guns in America. When you vote Dem you vote for gun confiscation plain and simple...that is the bottom line.
