After a video surfaced showing Bernie Moreno suggesting to over-50 women they no longer had a stake in the abortion debate, former GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley took to X, asking Moreno, “Are you trying to lose the election?” No. He’s just an awful candidate, writes Brent Larkin in his column today.
Republican U.S. Senate nominee Bernie Moreno speaks to a supporter during a campaign stop in Lancaster, Ohio, on Friday, Aug. 9, 2024.
