Trump endorses Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore

01:47

The Republican official confirmed a report by Breitbart, which quoted a senior RNC official as saying, "We stand with the president."

Breitbart published the article after Trump tweeted that "we need Republican Roy Moore to win in Alabama" before dawn Monday.

Breitbart's executive chairman is Steve Bannon, a former senior adviser to Trump. Moore has a rally scheduled with Bannon in Fairhope for Tuesday night, his campaign said.
