    The reason I originally endorsed Luther Strange (and his numbers went up mightily), is that I said Roy Moore will not be able to win the General Election. I was right! Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him!

    Trump now tweets that he supported Strange, because he believed Roy Moore wouldn’t win the General Election? Was he really for Moore, and just supported Strange to CYA in case Moore didn’t win, or did he actually believe Moore couldn’t win as he tweets now? Not sure a better title to ask here, I am just curious about that. It seems, above all, Trump values winning.

    President Trump’s support for Roy Moore was very minor. The truth of the matter was the President Trump was caught in the middle of this situation. Senate Leader Mitch McConnell does not want Roy Moore to win and for the moment President Trump needs Senate Leader Mitch McConnell to get bills pass into law.

    Fortunately, this election loss has not politically harmed President Trump. But, this loss will effect Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, whom had to spend a lot of political capital, while further risking his position as Senate Leader to keep Roy Moore from winning.

    It is sad that the rinos in the Senate would prefer a democrat to win than a nationalist. But, this confirms what we already suspected.

    After the special election results were in, President Trump pointed out that Roy Moore had to much going against him.

    It is foolish to believe it is coincidence that the Republicans in the House and Senate announced they reached an agreement on the tax bill the morning after Roy Moore lose the Alabama special election.

    Roy Moore’s loss is a mixed bag, but this is not a politically devastating loss for anyone involved. Roy Moore has dealt with worse and has bounced back. He had everything thrown at him and only lost by a few percentage points.

    Steven Bannon, a major supporter of Roy Moore will bounce back.

    Actually, but one whom loses the most from this is Mitch McConnell, by keeping Roy Moore from winning he may have set up his own future political downfall. Time will tell if this is correct.

    The real question is how many Republicans running for office next year are going to get hammered by sexual misconduct allegations as a means of shifting votes to the Democrat candidate or getting the voter to not vote. I see the #metoo movement being used as a political weapon in coming elections.

    The way things are looking, it is possible almost the men running for office will be falsely accused in some way.

    I am already hearing rumors on the web that accusations against Democrat Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer are in the pipe. Mr Schumer is already trying to get ahead of the accusation by saying they are fake before they come out.

    But, if the feminists are going to target the most powerful Democrat man in political elected office in the U.S., which is whom Chuck Schumer is, the feminists are going after all the men in power.

    This is political scorched earth politics by the feminists SJW fanatics.

    Republicans in DC have a core issue problem. Self destruction and minority status mind set. No matter what this is the operating position. Something simple like backing Moore, or even simpler removal of 0bama care are simply out of the question.

    True. The the rinos suffer from bad shortsightedness.

    But, the Democrats have the far worse problem of having created a fanatical cult of feminist SJWs within their ranks. Since the feminists are now going after Democrat Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, this means appeasement no longer works. The feminists demand that men to bow down to feminists and be their slaves.

    The leaderships of both the Republicans and Democrats are self-destructing.
