Jim Justice is running as the GOP candidate.
He used to be a former Democrat so he will play nice with the establishment.
Trump already endorsed Jim Justice.
He will be the next Senator and will likely be no different from Manchin.
I don't see why you say that. Trump isn't much of a Republican. To be biased against former Democrats would be hypocritical.
When they switched parties says a lot more about them than the switch itself. Richard Shelby was the last D to R switcher in the Senate, and he worked with Reagan in the 80s and switched parties in the 90s. I haven't seen anything awful from him. Justice switched parties in 2017, meaning he was fine with the madness of the post 2014 Democratic party. Trump is in between, and his switch appears to be in response the disaster that Bathhouse Barry brought on the country, which is fair.
Trump is a 90s democrat. He stumped for Bill. So nobody should be shocked.
But don't worry, next time he wins he'll totally fix everything, he promises.
