Former President Trump Endorses Patrick Morrisey for Governor of West Virginia

Former President Donald Trump has once again made his mark on West Virginia’s political landscape, this time endorsing Republican nominee for governor and current Attorney General Patrick Morrisey. This endorsement comes on the heels of Trump’s previous endorsement of Governor Jim Justice for the United States Senate.

In a statement on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump praised Morrisey’s track record as Attorney General and expressed confidence in his ability to lead the state as governor. Morrisey, in turn, expressed gratitude for the endorsement and emphasized the importance of working closely with the next Trump administration.

The endorsement comes at a crucial time for Morrisey, who emerged victorious in a crowded primary field just one week prior. Trump’s endorsement is seen as a unifying force within the Republican party, as Morrisey looks to rally support for the general election against Steve Williams, the mayor of Huntington.

Morrisey’s campaign is focused on addressing key issues facing West Virginia, such as reducing taxes, improving infrastructure, and increasing educational attainment. With Trump’s endorsement in his corner, Morrisey is confident in his ability to deliver results for the state and secure a win in the upcoming election.

As the campaign heats up, all eyes will be on Morrisey and his efforts to unite the party and address the pressing needs of West Virginia residents. Trump’s endorsement adds a significant boost to Morrisey’s campaign, setting the stage for a competitive and impactful race for governor.
