Congratulations to CNN for Finding the Platonic Ideal of a Roy Moore Supporter

I’ll be honest-I think I understand the phrase “Platonic ideal,” but it’s possible that even after Googling it just now, I’m a little hazy. Even so, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that CNN just found the platonic ideal of a Roy Moore supporter in Brandon Moseley, who is introduced as a “political reporter who’s supporting Roy Moore.” First off, he compared Moore’s alleged sexual abuse of a 14-year-old girl to “stealing a lawnmower.” And because he said that, I don’t feel bad about saying this next part…look at the guy!

Here’s the lawnmower video:

Good job, CNN, for reinforcing every possible stereotype in our minds about those special men who remain Roy Moore supporters.
