Quotes

Himself - Host : On Tuesday, CNN's Jake Tapper asked Moore campaign spokesman Ted Crockett to explain that view, and let's just say it did not go well.
Jake Tapper : Judge Moore has also said he doesn't think a Muslim member of Congress should be allowed to be in Congress. Why? Under what provision in the Constitution?
Ted Crockett : Because you have to swear on the Bible, when you are before- I had to do it. I'm an elected official. Three terms, I had to swear on a Bible. You have to swear on a Bible to be an elected official in the United States of America. He alleges that a Muslim cannot do that ethically, swearing on a Bible.
Jake Tapper : You don't have to swear on a Christian Bible. You can swear on anything, really. I don't know if you knew that.
[Crockett gapes like a fish]
Jake Tapper : You can swear on a Jewish Bible.
Ted Crockett : Oh, no. I swore on the Bible. I've done it three times, Jake.
Jake Tapper : I'm sure you have. I'm sure you've picked a Bible. But the law is not you have to swear on a Christian Bible. That is not the law.
[Crockett blinks slowly, his mouth gaping open]
Jake Tapper : You- you don't know that?
[Awkward silence]
Jake Tapper : Alright, Ted Crockett, everyo...
Ted Crockett : I don't know- I know that, uh, Donald Trump did it when we made him President.
Jake Tapper : Because he's Christian and he picked it.
[Seth shows Crockett's confused face from earlier]
Himself - Host : Look at him. He looks like the last hole at a miniature golf course.
