West Virginia governor, a Democrat, to switch to Republican
[APNEWS] West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice is switching parties to join Republicans as President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
plans a visit to the increasingly conservative state.

Justice’s plans were confirmed to The News Agency that Dare Not be Named on Thursday by a Democratic Party official with knowledge of his plans. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the decision before the announcement.

The governor is expected to publicly announce his decision Thursday evening at a campaign rally with the president.

Justice was elected in November with just 49 percent of the vote, 20 percentage points behind Trump’s total in the presidential contest in the state. Trump won 77 percent of West Virginia’s Republican primary voters in May.

#1 Justice was elected in November with just 49 percent of the vote, 20 percentage points behind Trump’s total in the presidential contest in the state. Trump won 77 percent of West Virginia’s Republican primary voters in May.

It was the Russians who caused Justice to win by just 49%; 20 points behind Trump. And it was the Russians who caused Trump to win W.Va. with 77% (sarc). In fact, it was the Russians who caused me to not sleep well last night. The bastid Russians also caused a huge dead waterlogged branch to fall from one of my trees and wipe out a shutter on the front of my house. I'm looking for an FBI investigation at any time (sarc). The Democrats are still in denial that their crappy, unbelievably crooked/corrupt, inevitable little empress did not win.

#2 Sure this is not a trick to plant a RINO in the party?
