Trump Jr endorses Morrisey for Governor of West Virginia

Donald Trump Jr. has given his endorsement to West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, who is seeking the Republican nomination for governor.

“Make sure to get out there and vote for Patrick Morrisey for governor,” Trump, Jr. said on his show “Triggered.” “He’s a great patriot, he’s the MAGA candidate. He’s the attorney general that was fighting all the Biden lawfare and weaponization. He’s going to be a great candidate and he’ll do a great job.”

Morrisey, who has also received an endorsement from Vivek Ramaswamy, expressed his gratitude for the support from Trump, Jr.

“Don Jr. and his father are dedicated to making America great again,” Morrisey stated on X. “They have the knowledge on how to beat the establishment and emerge victorious.”

Morrisey is facing competition from the sons of two members of West Virginia’s congressional delegation: car dealer Chris Miller, whose mother is Rep. Carol Miller, and former state Rep. Moore Capito, whose mother is Sen. Shelley Moore Capito. West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner is also running in the GOP race.

A recent Emerson College poll showed Morrisey leading by four points over Capito, with Miller coming in third place.
