Former CFB coach Tommy Tuberville’s GOP win over Jeff Sessions thrills Trump

(USA TODAY)

Everyone knows that President Trump loves winners, so it was no shock that he was thrilled that former college football head coach Tommy Tuberville (Ole Miss, Auburn, Texas Tech, Cincinnatti) reportedly has defeated Trump’s punching bag — er, football — former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions in Alabama’s GOP primary runoff.

Wow, just called! @TTuberville – Tommy Tuberville WON big against Jeff Sessions. Will be a GREAT Senator for the incredible people of Alabama. @DougJones is a terrible Senator who is just a Super Liberal puppet for Schumer & Pelosi. Represents Alabama poorly. On to November 3rd.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 15, 2020

Tuberville is a first-time political candidate who had the backing of President Donald Trump, defeated former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who was seeking to return to the seat he held for 20 years.
