Pedophile wants to run again...

Don Jr. warns Roy Moore: Stay out of Alabama Senate race

By JAMES ARKIN

Donald Trump Jr. on Tuesday warned Roy Moore not to run for Senate again in Alabama, calling him the only candidate who could lose the race for Republicans.

Moore lost the 2017 special Senate election to Democrat Doug Jones after the former judge faced allegations of decades-old inappropriate sexual interactions with young girls. He has expressed interest in running again next year, and many Republicans expect him to mount another campaign for Senate, a worst-case scenario for the party’s hopes of winning back the seat.

“You are literally the only candidate who could lose a GOP seat in pro-Trump, pro-USA ALABAMA,” Trump Jr. tweeted at Moore on Tuesday. “Running for office should never become a business model. If you actually care about #MAGA more than your own ego, it’s time to ride off into the sunset, Judge.”

Trump Jr. was responding to a tweet in which Moore taunted Rep. Bradley Byrne, one of the Republicans running to face Jones next fall. Byrne told The Hill that he expects Moore to enter the race soon but didn’t think he could win the nomination because of the baggage from his previous run.

“What is Bradley so worried about?” Moore tweeted. “He knows that if I run I will beat Doug Jones.”

Republicans in Washington have vowed to oppose Moore and think the former judge would put the Alabama race in jeopardy again. Jones won by less than 2 percentage points in 2017 and is the most vulnerable incumbent senator on the ballot in 2020. Earlier this year, Jones taunted Moore about running again, saying, “Let’s just do it again.”
