Here’s a clip of Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) literally fleeing down the stairs to escape from ABC News’ Tom Llamas’ question about whether he believes Roy Moore’s accusers.
As he runs down the stairs, Brooks goes with repeating this: “I believe the Democrats will do great damage to our country.”

“I believe the Democrats will do great damage to our country” puff-puff runs the Alabama congressman.
Asked again by ABC News’ Tom Llamas Brooks repeats, “I believe that the Democrats will do great damage to our country on a myriad of issues.”
So this Roy Moore situation is going well for Republicans.
Meanwhile, Republican Senators who are following McConnell’s lead to attack Roy Moore over the sexual harassment and assault accusations can’t explain why they think Roy Moore shouldn’t be in the Senate after being accused by 5 women, but Donald Trump should be in the White House after being accused by 16 women and caught on tape bragging about sexual assault.
Several Republican hypocrites in the Senate are also fleeing, but they’ve added a pivot to Bill Clinton for spice.
Mo Brooks believes Democrats will do “great damage” to our country. That’s how he justifies supporting Roy Moore, accused of assaulting a 14-year-old girl among other five women who’ve accused the Republican Judge — as if Donald Trump were not already actually doing great harm to our country.
