Watch:

The Roy Moore campaign tried to only take questions about issues, but they were asked, “The major issue here is about judge did you touch any of these women who accused you of touching them? Just answer unequivocally, this is a room of faith. God is listening to you too. Answer the question please.”

The campaign replied, “He’s already answered that question.”

Reporter, “Have you ever touched any of them, sir?”

Campaign, “He’s already answered that question.”

Reporter, “Let him speak. He’s running for Senate, ma’am.”

Campaign, “Hush, I have heard him answer the question repeatedly.”

Reporter, “Let him speak. He can answer the question.”

Campaign, “We pay for this microphone.”

While his campaign was melting down, Roy Moore stood at the side of the stage and remained mute.

The Alabama Republican Party released a statement standing behind Moore:

However, the strategy of ignoring the sexual assault allegations is not going well. The Roy Moore campaign is falling apart, and when a candidate can no longer speak on his own behalf, that’s a candidate who is ready to lose an election.
