Sean Hannity has been under fire for giving Roy Moore a platform to explain himself. Liberals have interpreted that as, “Sean Hannity is LITERALLY DEFENDING PEDOPHILES OMG.”
Um, no. That’s not how this works. Moore has been accused, but he hasn’t been proven guilty. I seriously doubt Hannity would give Moore a platform if Moore was absolutely, without a doubt, a proven, rape-y pedophile. He gave Moore– someone who has been accused– a chance to address the serious allegations against him. It’s not Hannity’s fault Moore did a crappy job defending himself.
Hannity’s almost done with this. He’s sick of the inconsistent answers. So on Tuesday night, he gave Roy Moore an ultimatum. Moore either needs to “fully come up with a satisfactory explanation” for his inconsistencies or drop out of the race.
“You must remove any doubt,” Hannity said. “If you can’t do this, then Judge Roy Moore needs to get out of this race. This country has way too many issues and problems. The American people deserve 100 percent truth and honesty.”
