Moore had two concerns with President Joe Biden stepping down with less than four months before the November election.

“Millions and millions of people just voted for him, and they are going to disregard all of that – what was it good for?” Moore said that Democrats are going to disregard that and instead turn to “back-room negotiations that are not transparent and disrespecting the democratic process.”

In Utah’s Presidential primary, Biden secured 88% of the votes.

Moore believes Sunday’s announcement was part of a larger plan that started in the Spring when the historically early June debate was scheduled between Biden and Trump.

“In my opinion has been the plan since they pushed for an early primary June debate -it’s an early timeline and never been done to my knowledge.”

“ I believe party bosses and leadership in the DNC knew he would not be fit to run and here we are.”

After the debate, Moore said the “media was ready to pounce” and the backdoor negotiations started in earnest to get the President to withdraw.

“It’s played out predictably and is disappointing.”

Moore, just home from the Republican National Convention also discussed the Convention and the attempted assasination of former President Donald Trump.

On the day of the Butler Rally and assasination attempt Moore said, “This attack and likely assassination attempt against President Trump, and the political violence toward his supporters, is sickening. My prayers are with President Trump, his team, and Pennsylvanians this evening.”
