and i have to accept full responsibility for this. do we need to find out the tick tock here? there are people in washington who say the president told me this, when it was the deputy assistant secretary for you know what. that happens in town. but if she was told the white house wants you to go and the white house says that s not true, do we need to figure that out? the secretary stepped up to the plate. he asked for it s an important thing. he stepped up to the plate, took full responsibility, and he asked for her forgiveness. that was important. she forgave him. the problem is, this is an incident that should go back, quite frankly, to breitbart because this guy went after her intentionally and consciously put out some false allegationings, to destroy a good woman. it s not an isolated incident. we see it time and time again in politics. although you guys have taken it to a fine art. oh, come this is the thing that americans dislike and it s why you can t trust politics.
pelosi and chuck schumer, we can t do it. so get out and vote for roy moore. [cheers and applause] chris: congresswoman comstock, does that bother you as a republican to see president trump and the republican national committee both supporting judge moore who faces several allegationings of misconduct allegations of misconduct with teenage girls, one as young as 14? well, i was of, i think, the first republican women to call for him to step aside. i was happy to see my friends like senator cory gardner, tim scott and many others take the other side of that and say that we don t need to have him here. now, the voters are going to decide on tuesday,but i think what they re going to have is an ethics investigation, and what we ve been doing on my committee is we ve been hearing the voices of the women and the victims. that is what is going to happen, because every woman has a story. jeff sessions said he believed these women, and i think if roy
