(VitalNews.org) – West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin said that Donald Trump can win this election and that the Republican Party needs to be made “grand again,” and the Democratic Party needs to be made “responsible again.”
Manchin stated that he most certainly believes that Trump will win this election. He told an interviewer that he comes from a place filled with “pragmatic, hardworking people.”
“They don’t want the government jumping on your back, telling you what to do and making it harder for you. They believe in freedom and democracy,” he said.
He continued, “They believe in all of that. They believe in giving a helping hand, but they believe you ought to get off your butt and do something sometimes.”
He went on to say that he has concerns over both parties of the election and that they have gone “so extreme.” “I think they both lost their ways, and they’re just listening to their own chatter here in Washington, but none of this makes sense. We don’t live our lives like this,” he said.
He continued, saying he’s warned the president and told him that he has to look into the bills he’s accepting as well as the whole outlook on the presidency in the country.
“A lot of these bills and a lot of the direction, the executive orders, people that came from the generation that I’ve come from and that you’ve come from is basically John Kennedy asking not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country,” he said.
He also stated that the stance America has taken on the Israel-Hamas war has led people to declare their “allegiance and support for a terrorist organization like Hamas.”
After comparing these protests to those from the Vietnam War, he said, “These protests are trying to tear down the fabric of America, and there’s no way that we should tolerate it.”
