Roy Moore is back. |
The Republicans once again are panicking about the chances he could spoil an easy pick up in 2020.
Doug Jones, a political moderate managed to beat Moore in a bitterly fought race. Jones became the first Democrat in 25 years to win a seat in the U.S. Senate. He is considered one of the most vulnerable members in 2020.
Jones who was a longshot managed to win after Moore was exposed as a creepy pedophile. He had nine women accuse him of sexual abuse when they were underage.
Moore who continues to deny any contact with these women believes the Republicans and junk food media abandoned him. He said that he's no longer caring what people think of him, he's determined to win a seat.
Donald J. Trump at first endorsed his contender the incumbent Luther Strange in the primaries.
The crowded field and the far-white felt Strange was insufficiently conservative. Strange would lose to Moore in the run-off. Moore was leading and was considered the favorite. Trump carried the state in 2016 by 40 points. Republicans dominate the state in a 2:1 ratio.
Moore who is best known besides his hanky panky was the guy who ignored a federal court ruling on the removal of the Ten Commandments from the Alabama state capitol.
He was removed twice as Chief Justice of Alabama Supreme Court. He has been an ethically challenged candidate.
The Republicans are under fire currently in Alabama for passing their controversial abortion law.
Many entertainers and celebrities are boycotting the state since Gov. Kay Ivey signed the bill into law. This is currently being challenged in federal courts.
The Moore controversy also put a dent in Trump armor. Trump would endorse the candidate despite not even campaigning for him. Republicans vow to not seat him if he does win. Alabama Republicans have bucked Trump, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL). They clearly believe Moore over his accusers. Sean "Softball" Hannity, a supporter of Moore went on radio and television blaming the women who accused the disgraced judge of inappropriate behavior. He faced an advertising boycott from that.
Could Roy Moore win?
Moore has a 56% chance of winning the U.S. Senate race.
Donald J. Trump have a 80% chance of carrying Alabama.
Trump has a 69% chance of winning reelection in 2020.
By the way, Roy Moore is 73 years old. His wife is Kayla Moore and she's 58 years old. Spot the age difference. They've been married for over 30 years. So that would have made Moore 43 and Kayla 28!
Try to tell me that Roy Moore ain't a pedophile!
