Rep. Mo Brooks gets backlash at Trump rally when he says they should move on from the 2020 election


August 24, 2021

Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala., is a hardcore Donald Trump loyalist and alleged architect of the "Stop the Steal" movement, which led to the Jan. 6 insurrection. That didn't prevent him from being the target of ire on Saturday night at a Trump rally in Cullma...................................................




Brooks was in the process of introducing Trump himself — who may or may not be planning to run again in 2024, and claims it's "illegal" for him to make that clear (it's not) — when the congressman suddenly wandered into dangerous terrain.

"Now, our choices are very simple," Brooks said from the stage. "There are some people who are despondent about the voter fraud and election theft in 2020. Folks, put that behind you. Put that behind you!"

As noted by Tuscaloosa Patch editor Ryan Phillips, who was present at the rally, the crowd did not respond kindly to the unsolicited advice.

With more and more boos cascading from the pro-Trump crowd, Brooks continued urging attendees to look ahead. "Yes! Look forward!" he exclaimed, trying to avoid being shouted down. "Beat them in 2022! Beat them in 2024!"


Finally, Brooks threw his hands in the air and appeared to capitulate. "All right, well, look back at it, but go forward and take advantage of it!"
