The senior editor at Breitbart is on MSNBC defending Roy Moore's sexual abuse

of teenage girls. Breitbart is basing their defence on a denial from Moore's campaign office, while claiming The Washington Post article can't possibly be true because there was only one minor 14 yo girl, and the 16 yo and the two 18 yo teenagers were of an age to consent to having sex with a man twice their age.

So it's all good, move along. Oh, and BTW, Breitbart wants readers to know that The Washington Post is owned by "billionaire Amazon founder and open borders champion Jeffrey Bezos", and also "formally endorsed Moore’s Democratic opponent Doug Jones in the Senate race." So don't believe anything they say about Dear Judge Roy Moore.

Of course Breitbart and co don't give a shit about child rapists, unless they are Democrats, of course.

The differing reactions to Moore, Weinstein, and Weiner (and Trump) says a lot about the differences in the two parties.
