Trump's rally in Alabama is a boon for Mo Brooks' Senate campaign
CNN
Former president Donald Trump will rally the faithful in Alabama, on Saturday, a boon to Rep. Mo Brooks, his favored Senate candidate who is behind in the money race there and struggling to attract some Republicans unnerved by his brand of politics.
This year, the six-term congressman helped lead the charge in Congress to overturn the 2020 presidential election results and launched a run for Senate. He then earned the former President's support and put it at the forefront of his campaign, displaying "ENDORSED BY TRUMP" above his own name on placards. Brooks is now the front-runner for the 2022 race. "No candidate in Alabama could say with a straight face they would pass on a Trump endorsement," said Republican Rep. Barry Moore, who supports Brooks. "To most Alabamians, a Trump endorsement is the best assurance out there that the receiving candidate will be out front in the fight for the issues they care about."More Related News
