President Trump has decided to place politics over principle, by endorsing accused pedophile Roy Moore in order to support his right-wing agenda.
Now the RNC has followed suit, resuming their funding of Moore's campaign after previously halting it when the allegations against Moore first surfaced.
President Trump is the leader of your party. The RNC is the official face of your party. When they speak, the implicit assumption is that they speak for you as a Republican elected official.
And so, absent a clear statement from you, it is reasonable to assume that you also believe your Republican agenda is so important that it justifies putting an accused pedophile in the Senate.
I'm writing to ask that you publicly disavow both Moore and the RNC's support of him. Without such a disavowal, I will have no choice but to assume that, like Trump, you are willing to excuse a sexual assault on a child --- and likely more than one --- if it furthers your political goals. Please understand: despite our political disagreements, I WANT to see you make such a disavowal.
Please respond to let me know where I can expect to see such a disavowal published.
Update: Surprise, surprise, Jason Lewis agrees that sexual assault is bad. He is completely silent on the fact that Trump and the RNC are actively campaigning to get this monster elected to the Senate, which of course makes him complicit.
Nice work, congressman.
