Jimmy Kimmel is ready and willing to fly to Alabama to fight Roy Moore (or discuss Christianity with him), but he won't be coming alone and he plans on wearing a very special outfit for the big event.
On Thursday night's Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host explained that Moore, the Republican Alabama Senate candidate who has been accused of groping or assaulting several women when they were in their teens and he was in his early 30s, sent him an angry tweet after Kimmel's friend Jake Byrd (comedian Tony Barbieri) attended an event Moore held Wednesday night. "If you want to mock our Christian values," Moore wrote, "come down here to Alabama and do it man to man."
