Basically the Republicans in West Virginia could pick a name out of a hat and beat Manchin. He voted against the Tax Cuts so voting for Kavanaugh won’t save him. Anyone who thinks Trump won’t go all out to defeat Manchin in a state he has already won by 42 points is fooling himself. Look at what the Trump endorsement did in Georgia - a FIFTY THREE POINT SWING.

I applaud your enthusiasm! However, Manchin will be tough to defeat. He is considered by many in WV and elsewhere to be an "old school Democrat." Honestly, he is one of only a few Dems I can actually listen to on TV without projectile vomiting immediately.

And I still cannot find out for sure if Blankenship will be allowed on ballot. If so, he will take votes away from Morrisey.
