Alabama Republicans pay attention: write in Luther Strange's name for senate. It's what your president wants!
(Serious question: how much would it cost us to pay some Macedonian kids to split the Republican vote in that election with Internet bullshit?)

This now deleted Luther Strange tweet made so little sense that even @realDonaldTrump in his worst Is-He-On-Opioids? state, noticed it

(101,321 posts)12. Not even true - it was just a different pollster
Trump endorsed Strange on Aug 8th. The first round was Aug 15th; polling for that shows Strange at 23% Aug 8th-10th (Trafalgar Group, but no different from earlier polls from other pollsters), 32% Aug 10th-12th (Emerson College, and only a sample of 373), and 24% Aug 13th-14th (Trafalgar Group again). In the head to head polls, Strange was at 32-34%, before and after Trump's endorsement. It was after about Aug 21st, in the runoff polls, that Strange started to catch up Moore.
Trump wants a "participant trophy" for backing the loser.
