Trump Congratulates Moore for Alabama Senate Primary Victory, Deletes Tweets Endorsing Strange

On the Monday before the election, Trump tweeted, “Big election tomorrow in the Great State of Alabama”. Trump did not seem too upset, however, congratulating odd on a “good race” and Moore on his victory, and endorsing him in the December election. “We can support the president”.

Not only did Trump delete those tweets, he rushed to congratulate Roy Moore, a racist, homophobic birther and far right religious extremist, on his win.

CNN reached out to the White House regarding the deleted tweets. They include his Democratic opponent, political commentators, and the President of the United States.

With 100 percent of precincts reporting, Moore received 262,204 votes (54.6 percent) compared to Strange’s 218,066 votes (45.4 percent). “#MAGA.” The president also removed that post after Strange’s defeat.

“I might have made a mistake”.

“We’re dealing with a political environment that I’ve never had any experience with”, odd told supporters after the results came in Tuesday night, according to The Washington Examiner.

Trump was throwing his support behind unusual despite the fact that the president’s own supporters such as former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson, and former Deputy Assistant Sebastian Gorka supported Strange’s opponent, Moore, according to Mediaite.

Trump has been outspoken in his support for unusual, endorsing him before the August primary race, in which neither odd nor Moore managed to earn more than 50 percent of the vote, necessitating Tuesday’s primary runoff.

Trump later reposted the corrected version of the same tweet. According to media reports, on Monday night Trump consulted with a group of conservative activists about what kind of fallout he could face if Moore won – and had been complaining about having to stump for unusual throughout the campaign.

All three referred to an Alabama GOP primary race between Luther Strange and Roy Moore over the Senate seat vacated by Jeff Sessions. Moore has already suggested that McConnell should step aside as leader. Moore is considered the favorite in the race, AL.com reported – which is good news for Republicans as they try to maintain control of the upper chamber beyond next year’s mid-term elections. It also could signal the arrival of a Republican Senator who will be a massive headache to both Trump and McConnell.

Moore is now on course to become the most homophobic politician elected to office in recent USA history. The deep dissatisfaction among the base with the pace of the Trump agenda is very real.
