Trump Accusers Speak Out Again, and Alabama Senate Race Opens
Todd Johnson, Managing editor at The Grio, and Jack Hunter, editor for Rare Politics, discuss the accusations of sexual harassment and assault against President Trump, as his accusers speak out for the second time.
We talk whether the commander-in-chief will be held to the same standards as Rep. John Conyers and Sen. Al Franken, both of whom resigned last week. Johnson and Hunter both believe that the president will escape similar consequences, with Johnson noting Trump's record of prospering, despite the scandals associated with him.
We also dig into the Alabama Senate Race that will see Roy Moore, also accused of sexual misconduct against teenagers, battle it out against Democrat Doug Jones. What would a Moore win mean for the Republican Party?
