Not many on here are talking about the runoff election this coming Tuesday between Strange and Roy Moore. Unfortunately, Trump has been given bum advice to support Strange and is going to Alabama for a rally.

I predict that turnout for the rally will be low, but it will be because there is little enthusiasm for Strange. When this happens, it will be spun as "Trump has even lost Alabama" and "It is over for Trump"

Personally, next to firing Flynn, I think this is the second biggest political mistake Trump has made. There is no upside for him. If Strange wins, he will be more beholden to McConnell than Trump and if Strange loses it will be portrayed by the media as if Trump has lost his entire base.

If Moore wins and I suspect he will based on polling, it will be because there is a repudiation of the swamp and not Trump. But, again that is not how it will be spun by the media masters and the left. Just wanted to mark this for future reference.

Just goes to show that Trump supporters are NOT mindless followers who can't think for themselves or don't have their own opinions. We will leave that way of life to the lefties.
 
Add another total imbecilic 'culture warrior' to the mix.

Absolutely perfect. :0)

Bannon, Breitbart, Trump, and Moore leading the Republican Party into the ground.

Perfect.

After assuming the circuit judge bench, Moore had hung a homemade Ten Commandments plaque on the wall of his courtroom. Defendants in his court later complained about the religious display, as well as Moore's practice of beginning the sessions with prayer. The ACLU sued Moore, who remained defiant against later court orders to remove the plaque.

After gaining national attention for his stand on the 10 Commandments, Moore was urged to run for Chief Justice of the state Supreme Court, going on to defeat Associate Justice Harold See in the GOP primary and Democratic challenger Sharon Yates in the general election. He was sworn in on Jan. 15, 2001.

After taking office, Moore installed a 5,280-pound granite block that featured Constitutional quotes and two large tablets with the 10 Commandments outside the state Judicial Building. The move prompted a lawsuit from the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center, among other groups, which Moore dismissed saying the 10 Commandments were the "moral foundation of U.S. law" and therefore appropriate in a judicial setting.

Court rulings later ordered Moore to remove the monument, though he remained defiant. Alabama's Supreme Court voted to overrule Moore's decision to disobey the court order and a complaint against him was filed with the Alabama Court of Judiciary. The COJ issued a unanimous ruling that Moore had violated the Canons of Judicial Ethics by defying the ruling and ordered the Chief Justice be removed from office in November 2003. The decision was upheld through several appeals.

Moore sought the Republican nomination for Alabama governor in 2006 but lost to eventual winner Bob Riley. He ran for governor again in 2010, but placed fourth in the GOP primary.
