Ooo. Edging away from Moore, but only enough to test the floorboards.

In other words, Trump believes the allegations against Moore are very credible. Which invites the next question: why aren’t the allegations against Trump equally credible? And why attack Senator Franken for actions magnitudes less severe than Moore’s?

Seems like he really opened a can of worms here. I guess we should expect more LaVar Ball tweets to deflect. Unhappily, LaVar Ball also hasn’t met a camera he didn’t like.

o/t - this made me laugh - and I thought others might enjoy the laugh. An embedded twitter thread riffing on a Trumpian draft of the Gettysburg Address (click to get to the tweet and thread)

I think one of the first bills Judge Moore should file once he takes his Senate seat would be a bill to require all sexual misconduct settlements while in office shall be paid by the accused parties and not the taxpayers!!, along with a public record of these settlements.

So does this mean that you will step down, Donnie Two Scoops? Because the women who have made accusations of sexually predatory misconduct by YOU are equally as credible.

Still waiting for you to file those lawsuits you promised against those 10 (or more) women who accused you of sexual harassment Your Excellency.

“You should certainly be able to infer by the fact that he has not gone down to support Roy Moore his discomfort in doing so.”

And from his refusal to actively oppose Moore, we can infer that Trump is a spineless wonder who can’t stand up to his party’s right wing nutjob base, even in the case of child molestation.

So they send out a relatively low level guy to test the waters and say, kinda sorta, that Trump maybe thinks the allegations against Moore might potentially be at least partially credible, though Trump isn’t going to actually say so, but look, Trump isn’t campaigning for Moore, so he gets credit for that, right?

Another profile in courage from the Trumpsters.

Maybe the polling is looking bad for Moore. Gee, that’s too bad, if true. :smirk:

There must be some in Alabama who are looking at this hypocritical statement with a rather jaundiced eye.

Yet another despicable failure drawn to the Trump administration like a moth to the flamethrower.

For Alabama, Washington Post is the culprit. They cant think past that.

“I don’t think you have seen him go down there and campaign for him. I don’t think you have seen him issue an endorsement. You have not seen him issue robocalls,” Short said. “You should certainly be able to infer by the fact that he has not gone down to support Roy Moore his discomfort in doing so.”

This guy and other mouthpieces like Sanders use “obviously” in response to a question when the answer is not all obvious, and is patronizing and condescending to the questioner. Obviously.
