He previously ran for Senate in a 2017 special election but lost to Democrat Doug Jones after Moore was accused of sexually assaulting multiple teenage girls. Jones is running for election to a full term in 2020.
Rep. Bradley Byrne (R-Ala.), who announced his candidacy for the Senate seat in February, previously said he would welcome Moore to the race.

He knows that if I run I will beat Doug Jones, Moore tweeted in May, referring to Byrne. Trump responded with a tweet of his own, saying Moore probably wont win if he runs.
Moore responded to Trumps opposition Thursday by saying the president is being pushed by the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
I dont know what hes thinking, Moore said. I cant speak for him. But I can say I dont disagree with him in lots of his policies.
Im not going against President Trump, Moore added .
However, the presidents son Donald Trump Jr. disputed that, calling it fake news.
This is pure fake news. I can assure everyone that by running, Roy Moore is going against my father and hes doing a disservice to all conservatives across the country in the process. https://t.co/pjfDKfoIO0

The Senate Leadership Fund super PAC also came out against Moores decision to run again.
We believe most Alabama Republicans realize that nominating Roy Moore would be gift wrapping this Senate seat for Chuck Schumer, the SLF said in a statement. It remains to be seen whether Moore can escape his baggage without his candidacy collapsing under its own weight, regardless of what groups on the outside do.
