Citizens for Trump endorses Roy Moore while Trump supports his challenger

Published September 22, 2017 1:15am ET



Citizens for Trump endorsed Judge Roy Moore in a primary run-off election for Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat — but that’s not the candidate favored by President Trump.

“The Judge has proven to be a great man of principle and integrity by his conduct,” Tim Selaty Sr., executive director for Citizens for Trump said in a statement. “We’re honored to support Judge Moore and believe he’s the clear choice to represent Alabama in the U.S. Senate and the only candidate who’ll work closely with President Trump to Make America Great again for all its citizenry.”
