Where's Roy? Moore disappears from campaign trail

I shit you not. This is actually the headline.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Near the end of a press conference for Roy Moore Thursday, a reporter asked a question: Where was Roy Moore?

“He’s campaigning,” said Ben DuPre, a longtime Moore associate and spokesman for the campaign. “He’s campaigning hard.”

If Moore is doing that, he's keeping it a secret.

In the last few days before the Dec. 12 election for Alabama’s junior U.S. Senate seat, the Republican candidate has all but vanished from the public, continuing a pattern of absence that took hold after allegations of abuse, assault, harassment and misconduct with nine women surfaced against Moore in early November.






Have they checked the malls?

The outcome has already been determined. The GOP is pushing a $1.4 trillion tax cut for trump and his criminal empire, all to be paid for by cutting and defunding every program that helps seniors, children, veterans, working class and poor. All out in the open for all to see.

This can mean only one thing; they have accomplished what they have been trying to do for years.
Kris kobach gained control of the outcome of every voting machine in USA with his “voter fraud commission.

When you step back and look at every legislation and executive order these criminals have repealed and put in place while our news organizations, with a few exceptions, barely reported or exposed the long term catastrophic damage these laws have on the rest of us, all to further enrich and turn our government into a dictatorship.

Sorry to ramble on, but the railroading of Senator Franken has pushed me over the edge.

He knows that if he gets to the Senate, he’ll be a lightning rod.

Boy can dream, can’t he?
