David Brooks: If Moore Wins, GOP Will Be ‘Repulsive’ to Young People, People of Color

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” New York Times columnist David Brooks said if Alabama Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Roy Moore wins his special election on Tuesday, the Republican Party will be “repulsive” to millennials and people of color.

Brooks said, “You get a temporary vote for a Supreme Court Justice, for a tax cut, but for a generation you are repulsive You are repulsive to younger people. Twenty-eight percent of millennials think the Republican Party cares about them. That is just a generational problem. They’re repulsive to people of color forever. So you end up, not only making yourself unpopular but sort of corrupting a piece of yourself.”
