West Virginia Republican Governor Jim Justice publicly endorsed former President Donald Trump’s candidacy for the 2024 presidential election on Monday.
Governor Justice expressed his belief that Trump represents the strongest option in the GOP primary to challenge and defeat President Joe Biden.
He made his endorsement known through a tweet, stating his confidence in Trump’s potential for re-election.
“The leadership and success exhibited by President Trump could not be more different than what we see today under Joe Biden. I support President Trump and firmly believe he will be our nominee and be re-elected as our next President,” Justice wrote on Twitter with a video message.
“If President Biden were my father, I would not allow him. There was no way that I could allow him to embarrass himself and continue on in this job. There’s no way. I mean, President Biden is really challenged and you know others are pulling the strings in every way, but anything we touch almost is becoming toxic, whether it be Afghanistan, the border, all the different things, the energy on and on and on, inflation, just one thing right after another, whether it be crime or woke schools, or I mean, it is everything we touch turns to doo,” he said in the voice message.
“And then there’s people that don’t like President Trump’s personality. Well, there’s people who don’t like my personality. But with all that being said, I think President Trump will be the nominee and I think he’ll be our next president, and I’m very hopeful about it,” Justice added.
