A pro-Trump 12-year-old girl interviewed Roy Moore
A pro-Trump group formed by former Breitbart News staffers arranged to have a 12-year-old girl interview Judge Roy Moore just days before Tuesday's U.S. Senate election in Alabama.
Millie March sat down with the former Alabama Supreme Court justice at the state GOP headquarters in Birmingham. Video of the interview was posted Sunday on the Facebook page of the America First Project, which The Atlantic reports was formed by Breitbart staffers in the wake of President Trump's election.
Jennifer Lawrence, a former Breitbart reporter, according to The Atlantic, introduced the interview. She said America First brought March to Alabama to show "that there is a wide-range of people who support Judge Roy Moore."
In the video, March asks Moore about Trump's border wall plans, the most important issues to Alabama residents and the characteristics of a "really really good senator."
Moore told March he supports Trump's wall, adding illegal immigration could be stopped sooner with military intervention. He also called for preservation of religious liberty, a tax on consumption and changes to the health-care system.

March and her mother traveled from Virginia for the interview, the video states. The girl has gained notoriety for her strident and enthusiastic support of the president. She often boasts a "Make America Great Again" or Trump cap and is decked out in pro-Trump buttons. In February, America First posted a video of her at the Conservative Political Action Conference, where she exulted the president's call for a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. She appeared on Fox News' Fox & Friends in July wearing an Ed Gillespie for Governor hat for the then-GOP candidate for Virginia governor.
The race between Moore and Democrat Doug Jones has drawn national attention, particularly after nine women accused Moore of a range of misconduct, including pursuing relationships with them while they were teenagers.
