Need I say more?
Sounds like a pretty objective unbiased opinion on the matter.
But this is why I think Franken's resignation is so key. The critics who try to keep Moore in office have nobody to point to.
Trump/Bannon aren't dumb strategically. They know what I know. Get the guy in, and then whatever happens happens. Trump will step back and say "That's for the ethics committee to decide!" Trump endorsed Strange in the primary. So when Moore gets the boot, Trump can say "Told you you should've gone with Luther Strange!" And he was right, for once.
