Mulvaney: Trump regularly asks why Roy Moore lost: report

By John Bowden - 09/08/18 05:06 PM EDT
 

President Trump remains dissatisfied with the performance of Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore (R) in the state's special election last year and regularly questions why Moore lost, according to a top aide.

White House budget director Mick Mulvaney said Saturday during a closed-door meeting with Republicans that the president asks him "all the time" why Moore was unable to defeat now-Sen. Doug Jones (D-Ala.), according to The New York Times.

“The president asks me all the time, ‘Why did Roy Moore lose?’” Mulvaney said, according to audio obtained by the Times. “That’s easy. He was a terrible candidate,” he continued. Jones beat Moore by 1.5 percentage points in December.

He could have beat the smear campaign, but he just didn't work that hard, or have a very focused effort.
The Republic is lost.

Roy Moore lost because he was a serious threat to the inside the beltway cabal and for no other reason!

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
