President Trump on Roy Moore: ‘He totally denies it’

President Donald Trump is not pulling his support from Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore.

Moore is facing several allegations of gross sexual misconduct involving minors, from incidents that allegedly happened nearly 40 years ago. Moore has denied any wrongdoing. 

Speaking to reporters Tuesday, the president said that Moore's words and denials should also be listened to, as Moore "totally denies it."

"I can tell you one thing for sure, we don't need a liberal person in there," Trump said.
