For Republican partisans, their opponents are “the forces of evil,” and anything is preferable to that. Even Donald Trump. Even Roy Moore. So in ostensibly fighting evil, Republicans have become complicit in it. Me in @USATODAY: https://t.co/1xKP2mQ20l

The terrible truth: In Trump’s Republican Party, Roy Moore—politically demagogic and morally bankrupt—seems to be not a bug but a feature.

If you are sickened by both cowering national Rs and repulsive defense by local Rs you must not be a GOP “tribalist,” who will justify any conduct, excuse any behavior, rationalize any rhetoric, adopt any conspiracy, deny any evidence to protect the GOP https://t.co/a69bj9NlvD

No moral horror by what today stands for the GOP should come as a shock after they nominated Donald Trump. That validated the worst behaviors of the worst people.

The allegations against Roy Moore are deeply disturbing and disqualifying. He should immediately step aside and allow the people of Alabama to elect a candidate they can be proud of.
