The Republican National Committee will resume its financial support of Roy Moore's candidacy, as Breitbart originally reported and multiple news outlets confirmed.
Flashback: The RNC withdrew support for Moore on Nov. 14 over allegations of sexual misconduct, including one from a woman who was 14 years old at the time of the alleged incident. On Sunday, Sens. Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham both walked back their earlier calls for Moore to step aside, and President Trump today gave Moore a full endorsement.
