“Everybody knows I can win and that’s what’s worrying in Washington.”
Why? Aren’t rethugs the same everywhere?
Please proceed…
His face is his mask and his mask is his face; Trump is just pissed that there is someone else on this Earth whose face reveals the evil inside as transparently as with His Glorious Self.
Oh please do so…everyone is assuming Jones has no chance at winning, this would make it into a horse race (and that’s a sad statement about Alabama). A national election where Republicans are supporting the likes of Steve King, Moore, and Trump really should help the Democrats take a lot of seats across the nation.
“Everybody knows I can win. I even wrote it in a middle school yearbook in the 70s.”
You go Roy!
The perv never backed down from any chance to lap up some of that sweet sweet grift.
Alabama, “We ain’t dead last in everything, but we’re fixin’ to be.”
I’m kind of tired of the conventional wisdom that Jones is the most endangered senator in 2020.
If he pulls together the same coalition as he did in 2017 with those outraged by the abortion law he holds the seat.
“But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeks to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthword, downword, into the dark, the deep - into evil.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra
“I think the president is coming under pressure from people in Washington, scared that I will run for the Senate, scared I will win and know I can win,” Moore told the AP. “Everybody knows I can win and that’s what’s worrying in Washington.”
What’s happening here? Is he lumping the President in with the Washington establishment? Or is he saying that Trump is afraid of the “people in Washington”? Perhaps he is just wanting to raise money for a race so that he can then bow out and keep the loot.
Dude inhabits the old saying about insanity and doing the same thing over again and thinking there will be different results. Did it with the Alabama Supreme Court (got thrown off it 2 x) now “Everybody knows he will win”… except that he didn’t before… and well… history repeats.
So have at it Roy.
I have to wonder if the Alabama legislature’s abortion gambit, might not just hedge the odds a little bit more to Jones - even in deep red Alabama. Roy would just make the race even more delicious.
He should say," If a carpet bagger slick talking NYC real estate developing sexual predator can be elected President of the United States, then why oh why can’t I continue my glorious career, after having twice been removed as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of Alabama?"
Less is Moore…much, much, much less.
The only problem is that some chunk of that coalition was people who would vote for a Republican but couldn’t for Moore (which may include Republicans who skipped voting in the race at all or stayed home). Jones will have a hard time getting those people to vote for him, and the assumption is that they will largely vote for any other Republican but Moore. On the other hand, it will be a presidential election year, and the first election since the abortion law passed, so maybe the Democratic candidate will inspire enough people to come out and vote, and enough minority and women voters come out, to carry Jones over the threshold. Moore just makes it, er, more likely that Jones pulls it out.
Just in time!
Lord knows he’s done his polling of the teen electorate at the Gadsden Mall.
know I can win
And that’s why Alabama Dems were able to fight you to a tie, while 20,000 Republicans were too principled to vote for you, but still so loyal to their party that they cast write-in votes for others. That’s a loss Roy.
It’s sad that a twice-impeached state judge could come that close to winning a seat in the Senate (but then again, a diaper-wearing customer of prostitutes got caught cheating on his wife and was re-elected in Louisiana).
