Mika Brzezinski on Morning Joe: "He is a horrible, cruel horseback rider."

Referencing Moore's ride in to vote and how he obviously didn't have control of the horse.

She apparently has experience as a rider and says the way he was pulling on the bit was likely ripping at Sassy's mouth. Also says taking a horse and putting it in front of all those cameras was destined to spook.

Roy the bastard is a serial abuser. Animals and little girls are NOT safe with this sick fucker!

Let's hope animal right's groups intervene and legally remove the horse and any other animals in this asshole's possession.

It was obvious that he was not in control of the horse. Fake cowboy kind of like G.W.bUSH. At least George never attempted to get on a horse, just lots of photo ops "chopping cedar."

Roy does not know how to ride.

I base this assumption on my riding experience.

I have owned 2 horses and ridden many.

My last horse, Lucy, was gaited like the horse in the video.

Not all horses are gaited.

It is the smooth ride.

She was also a brown and white paint like the horse in the video.

Roy looked awkward, uncomfortable, and unskilled.

He did not know how to handle the reins.

He did not have control of Sassy.

He was jerking the bit in Sassy's mouth.

He doesn't know how to ride, period !!!!

I've seen good riders in the saddle: human and horse as one fluid being. It is poetry in motion. Moore looked like an uptight, lying republican pedophile "family values role model." Tragically sad.

Talk about fluid !!!

Him and the horse become one.

Lucy always high stepped and raised her tail when my brother was in the saddle.

It was awesome to watch.

Last rode.

Watching that clip was painful.

If I had ridden like that my instructor would have permanently banned me from even approaching a horse.

Have since I was 12, and I'm 64. He is an abhorrent rider. I hope Sassy dumps him on his stupid face.
