Moore was a shit candidate who cost Republicans the senate seat. Fuck him and his ego.

I always believed the RAPE allegations were false, but the truth is that the dude was a creepy weirdo who was trying very hard to date teens when he was in his 30s. He even admits it with his wife:

• "Moore first saw his future wife, Kayla Kisor, when she was in her mid-teens performing at a dance recital. Moore was 31 at the time. In his 2005 autobiography, Moore described his reaction, writing: "I knew Kayla was going to be a special person in my life.""

• Moore denied the sexual assault allegations,[8] but did not dispute that he had approached or dated teenagers over the age of 16 (the age of consent in Alabama).[10][230][231] Independent witnesses confirmed that Moore had a reputation for approaching teenage girls, often at a local mall, and asking them out.

It doesn't matter that it's legal for a dude in his 30s to hit on 16 year olds in Alabama, politicians are not held to the standard of legal, they are held to the standard of what is socially acceptable and moral judgments. Moore simply is not electable and opens up Republicans to the "groomer" accusation that the Right primarily pushes if they endorse him.

Also he didn't win a case of the sex shit, only on 1 narrow claim he was banned from a mall:

Moore’s defamation claim against Senate Majority PAC focused on a Highway 31 TV ad “that said Moore ‘was actually banned from the Gadsden Mall … for soliciting sex from young girls.’” Moore v. Cecil, 488 F. Supp. 3d 1144 (N.D. Ala. 2020).
