Roy Moore blames 'malicious' allegations on gays, liberals and socialists (NBC)

Standing behind a pulpit at an Alabama church on Wednesday, Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore blamed the "malicious" sexual misconduct allegations against him on liberals, socialists and the LGBTQ community.
In a speech at the Magnolia Springs Baptist Church in Theodore, Alabama, Moore — who has been accused of sexual misconduct by several women — told the audience he is still leading in the polls but said "they" are trying to "change that."
“When I say 'they,' who are they?” he said. "They're liberals; they don't hold conservative values. They’re the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered who want to change our culture. They're socialists who want to change our way of life."
Eva Kendrick, the Alabama state director for LGBTQ advocacy group Human Rights Campaign, said Moore's comments did not surprise her.
“Bottom line is Roy Moore has used the LGBTQ community as a scapegoat for years,” Kendrick told NBC News. “This most recent incident is about Moore deflecting blame by placing it on one of his favorite targets: our community.”
