As Twitchy reported, Roy Moore appeared Friday on Sean Hannity’s radio show, and later that night on Fox News Geraldo Rivera claimed that Hannity “ended Roy Moore’s candidacy” with his interview. In other words, it didn’t go well for Moore.
Moore still has his defenders, though, some who question the timing of the allegations against him and others who wonder if what he did (assuming his side of the story is true) really is inexcusable.
Laura Ingraham doesn’t mention Moore in her tweet, but on Saturday she did dig up a People Magazine cover featuring Jerry Seinfeld and his young wife.

Well …?
Wow. So because Jerry Seinfeld briefly dated a 17-year-old, what Roy Moore is alleged to have done to a 14-year-old is OK? https://t.co/lPLGyCFFOk

I think we can all agree that Jerry Seinfeld should immediately drop out of the Senate race in Alabama. https://t.co/c4gXXBouN7

Ok, let's agree not to elect either Jerry Seinfeld or Roy Moore as Senator of Alabama. https://t.co/yMFx6YpsyY

Great we can agree that MANY celebrities/politicians are disgusting and don't deserve to be elected to office. https://t.co/DNyWMBlr5W

Thanks to your selective memory, let me correct your bullshit tweet.
Seinfeld got a LOT of criticism at the time for this relationship.
Also, she was 17.
Lastly, he wasn't running for public office. https://t.co/WC83oIUGu0

NEWS FLASH, LISA: It was gross then, too. Maybe you have selective memory, but people called Jerry Seinfeld all kinds of names for doing this back then. So your whataboutism doesn't work. (Also, 14 is UNDER THE AGE OF CONSENT.) https://t.co/7rG5R8ZO9J

Did she ever accuse Seinfeld of sexual assault?
You’re pathetic. https://t.co/QwMQBFzTQ2

We need to rid our discourse of "but someone else over there did something." It's immoral and horrendous. Either defend a behavior or condemn it. Argue the actual thing FOR ONCE. https://t.co/xd965ejUaU

Hey, remember that time Jerry Seinfeld made a career of declaring himself a defender of Christian values and sexual morality? Yeah, me neither.

False equivalence to excuse sexually assaulting a minor child. All in the name of politics. Shameful. https://t.co/C8mgq8DYFR

Is Ingraham defending Moore, or just pointing out a double standard?
Hmmm No outrage then or now but I guess lefties and the GOP establishment have no need to smear Jerry Seinfeld. https://t.co/EomYxx76xJ

Even though I'm assuming you're just trying to point out the hypocrisy of the Leftist media,you are nevertheless coming off as defending Roy Moore here. https://t.co/YKGiBqlJ7W
