So Donald Trump is going down to Mobile, Alabama to campaign for Roy Moore? Oh, wait. He’s going to Pensacola, FLORIDA. Notably and obviously NOT Alabama. Only 25 miles from Alabama. I’m up here about 25 miles from Alabama, thinking “this is just like a harasser standing just over your fence with a loudspeaker, screaming ‘Vote Roy Moore!’” He knows you can hear it, but he can tell a judge, “But your Honor! I was NOT on their property!”

I live in Tennessee, but I’m so close to Alabama that all the TV stations I can pick up are based in Huntsville, Alabama. So the culture of northern Alabama is shared strongly by the populace here in southern Tennessee. In fact, many people who live here also commute to work in Huntsville. The life of southern Tennessee is very much infused with what goes on in Alabama.

So let’s just admit the obvious. Trump is standing across the state line shouting at the 3rd most populous city in Alabama (Mobile), unequivocally stumping for an accused child molester. Why so coy, Donnie Boy? Oh wait. You’re not even being coy about it.
