Washington – President Donald Trump is defending his decision to initially back Sen. Luther Strange against Roy Moore in Alabama’s Senate election, saying in a predawn tweet that “Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him.”

“I was right!” the president said in a pre-dawn Twitter post Wednesday, a day after Democrat Doug Jones narrowly defeated Moore, a former state Supreme Court chief justice who was buffeted by allegations of sexual misconduct.
Trump notes in his social media post that the reason he originally sided with Strange was that “I said Roy Moore will not be able to win the General Election.”
The president had sent a tweet late Tuesday congratulating Jones, a former federal prosecutor, on his “hard fought victory.”
Yes, the poor guy was facing an impossible crowd of people who oppose pedophilia.
wrong he was a kami-kaze candidate and sanity won over insanity
Whether he worked hard or not is irrelevant. You don’t get elected for hard work, you get elected for being the people’s choice.
TRUMP: TAKE YOUR PICK
1) FAKE NEWS
2) BLAME OBAMA
The president is right his backing and steve bannon buried him,
Donald Trump seems to have a strange concept that all of life is unfair against him,
Poor, poor Trump. What is he going to do now?? Nebach….
That’s what happens when you’re a passenger on the deck of USS TRUMP.
One thing is clear at this point: any conservative candidate can and will be given the Moore Treatment – put forth false accusations, have the Fake Media amplify them, induce voters to prove their virtue by voting against the “offender”. This scenario will be playing repeatedly in the future, so get ready.
The bum moore lost. He was removed TWICE from Fed Court. And remember the Orange Haaman supported him till the end. 2018 is next.
