Hannity to Roy Moore: If you can't clear up your inconsistencies within 24 hours, you must drop out.

Source: Mediaite

Before closing his show on Tuesday night, Sean Hannity had a serious message for his viewers and for GOP Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore.

The Fox News host began by saying the allegations made against Moore were serious and understood how victims can wait years to come forward because of the “evil trauma” they faced.

He then addressed his interview with the judge last Friday and expressed how unsatisfied he was when Moore said he didn’t “generally” date young girls and “without the permission of her mother” and that Hannity believes that Moore was being inconsistent, pointing to his flat-out denial of knowing his latest accuser Beverly Young Nelson despite the fact he signed her yearbook decades back.

Hannity did this during the interview - tried to give leading questions for specific answers (that he didn't quite get) - that could fit an "acceptable" narrative for far right - and perhaps some evangelical right leaning Alabama voters.

Hannity isn't saying fess up. Hannity isn't saying give a stronger defense. He is saying (through very leading questions) - here are where your answers to my earlier leading questions - ... and he specifies exactly what the "inconsistencies" the Hannity laid out... that if you (Moore) address better could give (in Hannity's mind) a path out for Moore - by taking away some cognitive dissonance that some natural Moore voters who have moved away from Moore. Hannity is shilling and giving cover as always - but the tone/and time limit is telling per desperation. Even Hannity knows that his boy is in big trouble.

That last point is the only thing to be hopeful enough (that Moore is in big trouble.)

I really hope, though, that Crazy Roy stands his ground and doesn't drop out just yet though. IMO it would be the cat's meow if he dropped out just a few days before the election, and as stubborn as Crazy Roy is I can see that happening (or else his refusing to drop out at all). To be honest I'm a bit nervous about the election if he refuses to drop out, we've all seen what can go wrong when there's a totally unfit candidate that has no chance of winning.

Just to see the Repugs squirm and blab their selective moral rhetoric, and be distracted for once.

They have been trying to distract us for so long, let 'em have a taste.

It could be amusing.

themselves and are gullible to any manipulation by the best liar. So in that regard, he has power over them. Of course we all know it's just a money thing with Hannity. He couldn't care less personally about the morons he influences, as long as they keep his viewer numbers up.

What a sensitive and gentle man Roy Moore must be! He compliments the young woman calling her "sweeter" and "beautiful" and wishes her "Merry Christmas." Then he signs, "Love, Roy Moore, D.A."

Who the hell uses the word "love" and then signs with the initials of his official position?! That would be like, "Honey, you're the most wonderful, gorgeous woman in the world! Love, John Q. Public, Director of Sanitation."

How disconnected is this man? Why would he use an intimate expression and then sign with his job title?

The contemporaneousness of this yearbook lends strong credence to the woman's story and weakens Moore's defense.

From the woman's account he told her that she was "a child and I'm the District Attorney. No one is going to believe you" and then pushed her out of the car onto the pavement. Maybe he included the D. A. part to keep that in her mind.
