With Roy Moore's loss, how will the Repubs spin it?

[VRAMdemon]

Hmm.... that tweet sounds way too sensible and presidential to be coming from him.

This is more like the Trump we all know:

"The reason I originally endorsed Luther Strange (and his numbers went up mightily), is that I said Roy Moore will not be able to win the General Election. I was right! Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him!"

Holy crap I thought you were imitating the guy... you were not :

Hahahahha ... douche.

Gotta give a shout out and a big thumbs up to the people of Alabama

I'm godsmacked that a state as red as Alabama did the right thing and kept that loon out of the senate. Kudos !

Watching Bannon flee Moore's campaign HQ last night was like seeing the white blood cells exiting a popping zit.

I understand that, and that just means that its time to fight. You cant back down to that. Not ever.

Agreed, this shit is riot-in-the-streets worthy. Without representation you are less than worthless in our society, you're a puppet for some other fuck.

Lol now this is spin. Trump was right all along!

Perfect. Who knew that the true proof of his genius would come from his first endorsing one losing candidate, then another?

Of course. "It's everyone else's fault but me." Moore was not Trump’s chosen candidate at the start. So he feels like giving the party a “I told ya so”.

Also...After the Alabama election, a number of Republicans are going to start taking a serious look at Trump's ability to lead the party electorally. It may be quiet at first, but it will happen, and I would assume it will start now.

He'll blame the media. That's the most useful thing to do considering soon it'll be time to tell people to disbelieve the media, the FBI and the Justice Department when the real trouble hits.

And his adoring masses see nothing suspicion in that whatsoever. Lemmings gonna lemming I guess.

I think republicans will use the rational explanation for once. This is what usually happens when you nominate bat shit crazy people for an election. This is the rule. Trump was the exception (they won't actually say that last part).

 

[Puffnstuff]

Steve Bannon looks to be upping his party cannibalism and I like it.

 

[blankslate]

From what I've heard they are already blaming Bannon...

Good don't need no Nazis having a voice in any party.

I just saw this and had to come share it with you guys as I nearly fell out of my chair when I saw it.

Now that sounds more like Trump! Miserable and pathetic!

 

[VRAMdemon]

In short, Trump was against him before he was for him.

Steve Bannon is blaming Mitch McConnell for the Roy Moore loss...

"Thanks McConnell!!"

I just hope Bannon doesn't take this defeat too hard and let it affect his excellent health.

 

[SMOGZINN]

In short, Trump was against him before he was for him.

Trump naturally exists in a superposition. Trump lives in Hilbert space.

Especially for the 2018 elections?

Ie:
We've learned our lesson that 14 year old girls are still of limits, even in the backwards South.

Isn't Al where singer Jerry Lewis married his 14yr old cousin?

What's the age of consent in Al?

So true. In enlightened New York City, lefty hero Woody Allen waited to marry his daughter until she was 21. There's just so much you have to teach us backwards Southerners.

How do they spin it?
How about Bill Mitchell saying he heard a rumor that African Americans were bused from Mississippi
to vote?

Bannon loses a seat at the table and Trump now has to bring the tone way down if he has any chance of survival

You are assuming that Trump has a 'Sane' setting. I would not want my money riding on that possibility.

As tawdry as that whole affair was, and the hell with you for weaponizing it as a cut to "the left"; you are grossly ignorant of the particulars.
She was the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow, not Woody Allen's daughter.

You still need to work on thinking before you post.
