Not Going Anywhere: Roy Moore's Wife Says 'We Are In A Battle'

Source: Talking Points Memo



By NICOLE LAFOND Published NOVEMBER 17, 2017 1:29 PM

The people of Alabama understand the “battle” former Judge Roy Moore is facing in his Senate bid, according to Kayla Moore, the wife of embattled Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore.

Kayla Moore spoke as the headliner at a press conference with his supporters Friday from the steps of Alabama’s state capitol, in an effort to stand by Roy Moore and attack the people who apparently seek to destroy his shot at the U.S. Senate.

The “liberal press” — specifically The Washington Post — supporters of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, Roy Moore’s opponent Doug Jones and the Washington Republican establishment were among the culprits waging a war against her husband, Kayla Moore said. She thanked all of Roy Moore’s supporters for their “prayers,” messages and phone calls since the Post first reported on the allegations of multiple women who claim Roy Moore pursued relationships or unwanted sexual contact with them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s.

“We are in a battle. … The people of Alabama know him. They have seen what he has done, fighting for life, fighting against abortion and fighting for the acknowledgement of God. Fighting for traditional marriage and fighting for the Second Amendment and our rights, given by God, protected by our Constitution,” she said in remarks that were consistently interrupted by cheers from the crowd gathered.

Kayla Moore: The @washingtonpost has called everyone I have never known for 40 years. They have called everyone my husband {Roy Moore} has ever known for 40 years."

Dump him.

Consider yourself guided.



Alabama GOP steering committee statement: "We support Roy Moore as our nominee," who has "vehemently denied the allegations." The statement adds: "We ask God to guide us."
