Allegations of Sexual Misconduct when moore was in his 30s. Moore has denied the allegations and went on the radio today trying to stop the damage. Nobody that, uh, abuses a 14 year old age of 32, age 17, it doesnt matter. If you abuse a 14 year old, you should not be a Senate Candidate. I agree with that. I did not do that. Moore has been under fire the past 24 hours after the Washington Post reported that four women said moore pursued them when they were between 1418 years old and he was in his early 30s. The post said the woman found it lettering at the time but found it disturbing years later. Sean hannity repeatedly questioned moore about the alleged behavior. You can say unequivocally you never dated anybody that was in their late teens like that when you are 32 . It would be a bit out of my customary behavior, thats right. In other words, you dont recall getting any girls that young when you were that old . Ive said no. You think thats inappropriate too. Thats what you are saying . Its inappropriate, yes. The story broke late yesterday afternoon when republican senators trying to relet the tax reform plan for that event was interrupted with reporter shouting questions about these moore allegations. Since then, more than 30 g. O. P. Senators have said moore should step aside if the allegations are true. The White House Press secretary weighed in on air force one. Like most americans, the president does not want mere allegation, in this case, one for many years ago, to destroy a persons life. However, the president also believes that if these allegations are true, judge moore will do the right thing and step aside. Moores campaign actually tried fundraising off the allegations in the hours after the story broke. Bret . Bret mike emanuel live on the hill, thanks. As he heard, the story broke thursday and quickly spread across the nation and actually across the globe, the traveling white house having to address the issue from asia. Correspondent Jonathan Serrie reports from moores hometown of gats in alabama, and how residents there feel about the allegations. In the wake of the Washington Post bombshell report alleging judge moore made inappropriate the conservative candidate who runs on christian values remains defined. So are many of his supporters. What little i know about it, im not too concerned. A lot of things are fabricated. I dont know what to believe sometimes. Im a good man of roy moore. In washington, many senators are skeptical. In a statement, senator Mitch Mcconnell said if these allegations are true, he must step aside. The majority leader and judge moore have a contentious relationship to begin with. Mcconnells super pac spent millions of dollars trying to ensure alabama is twice removed chief justice would be defeated by incumbent senator Luther Strange. With the election just four weeks away, republicans have few options to replace moore. The 75 day deadline has long passed to remove his name from the ballot, and getting courts involved may not do it. As a constitutional matter, a judge could take a different approach and ruled that that statutory requirement is unconstitutional, deprives people of their right to vote for the candidate of their choosing or of their partys choosing. The challenge for republicans is they have a similarity slimn the u. S. Senate. While moore would not be a reliable republican, doug jones would reduce the g. O. P. s majority that just one senator. Election laws says that would be very difficult. Secretary of state john merrill said alabama law allows the governor to suspend or reschedule an election. But for now, moores supporters are sticking with him. Though their support is not guaranteed. If they have the proof and they want him to step down, if it is true, in fact, i do agree, i think he should step down. According to filings with the federal election commission, the nrsc, the Republican Party Senate Campaign arm, has ended its fundraising agreement with moore. Bret . Bret jonathan, thank you.
