Well, Roy Moore is running for Senate again. Because of course he is. But let him be clear: Despite Donald Trump urging him not to run, his campaign is “not going against President Trump”:
“I’m not going against President Trump” in running, Moore says

Donald Trump Jr. also told Moore to sit this one out — in no uncertain terms:
You mean like last time? You’re literally the only candidate who could lose a GOP seat in pro-Trump, pro-USA ALABAMA. Running for office should never become a business model. If you actually care about #MAGA more than your own ego, it's time to ride off into the sunset, Judge. https://t.co/Twg9isFRkY

So it should come as no surprise that the younger Trump is pretty pissed at Moore today for suggesting he’s in line with what the president wants:
This is pure fake news. I can assure everyone that by running, Roy Moore is going against my father and he’s doing a disservice to all conservatives across the country in the process. https://t.co/pjfDKfoIO0

We’re gonna need to stock up.
Hope you go to Alabama and campaign against this guy. https://t.co/fW7ctZQpJj
