Reminder that Roy Moore was the anti-Establishment candidate and drew the ire of Mitch McConnell, especially due to his ties with Steve Bannon.

Roy Moore was essentially the Donald Trump of Alabama and Trump sided with McConnell and the Swamp over Roy Moore, even though Roy supported Trump.

Trump didn't even campaign for Roy Moore. The best he got was a slight endorsement in a rally from the state of Florida.

That was just more evidence for me that Trump was a fraud .

Look up what an "empty signifier" is.

Hes there to rail loudly against the establishment, and then specifically do nothing.

Hes there to make you complacent.
