Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House,” host Nicolle Wallace expressed her displeasure over Alabama Republican voters selecting former state Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore over Sen. Luther Strange (R-AL) a night earlier in a GOP primary runoff election for U.S. Senate. Wallace, admitting she was “mad” and “riled up” about the outcome, asked if other Republicans would back Moore given his past. “I guess the question is though, John — is anyone in the Senate, any Republicans going to say, ‘I don’t want to be in the same party as Roy Moore. I’m not going to be for him. I’m not endorsing him.

Wallace responded, saying that McConnell deserved the ousting as Senate Majority Leader by the “coup”
