Alabama Congressman Mo Brooks used an audio last month of the shooting involving GOP Whip Steve Scalise and other Republican Congressman in a CAMPAIGN ad that's touting gun rights and telling voters to be AFRAID OF LIBERALS!!
He's running in the Senate Republican Primary to fill the seat left open by Jeff Sessions
The opens with GUNSHOTS and a black screen then text appears stating a "Bernie Sanders supporter fires on a Republican Congressman. Mo Brooks gives his belt as a tourniquet to help the wounded. What's the liberal media immediately ask?"
Then the video screen cuts to an interview with Brooks at the scene of the shooting and a reporter asks him if the event changes his view on the second amendment
The outrage in response to Brooks new ad was immediate with people expressing their disgust when it was posted online Monday..
Even a spokesman for Scalise refused to support Brooks after that video was posted as he used the tragic event for his platform.
Brooks is one of 3 major GOP candidates in the primary with Luther Strange and Roy Moore challenging him for the nomination..
