Trump Endorses Barry Moore, Reshaping Alabama’s GOP Senate Primary

The endorsement, coupled with Club for Growth’s backing, elevates Moore to frontrunner status ahead of the May 19 primary.

Overview

  • Trump announced his support on Truth Social, calling Moore a loyal ally and giving him a "Complete and Total Endorsement."
  • Analysts say the move "changed the landscape" and made Moore the favorite, though a runoff remains likely unless someone tops 50%.
  • Club for Growth also endorsed Moore, signaling significant outside funding and organizational support for his campaign.
  • Attorney General Steve Marshall said he will not back down and highlighted his record, as other Republicans stay in the race.
  • Jared Hudson, a former Navy SEAL, challenged Moore and Marshall to a debate, as the field competes for the seat opening with Sen. Tommy Tuberville running for governor.
