Come on with us, Mr. Precedent!

I will be in Huntsville, Alabama, on Saturday night to support Luther Strange for Senate. "Big Luther" is a great guy who gets things done!
Of course, Donald. He's your kind of person!
"You endorsed the guy who was appointed by a now-indicted governor into the seat held by a person now under criminal investigation. Swampy."
How's the presidential endorsement working out?

US Sen Jones: It could happen
So after the August Special U.S. Senate election, Alabama voters – and, more specifically, Alabama Republicans – were left with a terrible choice:
Strange, who it appears would sell his soul for the power of the Senate; and Moore, who appears to have no soul.
That strong divide that has split Republicans in a big way. Moore supporters aren’t likely to support Strange, if Strange gets the nomination, which appears more and more unlikely. Strange supporters aren’t likely to support Moore who, quite frankly, is just unacceptable to most reasonable people.

Republicans, disaffected with either a Moore or Strange nomination, could easily find themselves drawn to Jones in the December Special General Election. They can live with Jones. He won’t embarrass them, anyway.
If you're an evil southern Democrat who doesn't mind crossover voting if it means something, and you like to "help" our Republican friends and neighbors choose "the best" candidate to go up against our Doug Jones, who do YOU think would be the right pick next Tuesday in the runoff?
