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!

(70,508 posts)He makes this loss as something that good. Trump just held a campaign rally
for Moore last weekend and then Moore lost in the state that Trump won by
20 + points.

(4,973 posts)like moore was a victim "was stacked against him" - in reality, moore stacked the deck with his twisted religious weirdness coupled with his law-breaking and his perversions for underage girls - but the fact that the margin was slim still tells me there's a lot of strange people who are willing to vote for complete asshole criminals.

(16,245 posts)It's not the only reason Moore lost (he is particularly toxic all by himself), but a Trump endorsement is clearly more of an albatross than anything else.
