Why did Ojeda support Trump to begin with? Being a part of the problem that we now face is not much of a platform for "change". Having said that, his emergence as a (now-rare) "yellow dog" Democrat suggest that there is a huge political void to be filled in West Virginia and other states where the Democrats were once a force but have seen the pendulum swing further to the right.

He claimed to be a lifelong Democrat, then HOW could he possibly vote Trump?
I wanted to know what you guys thought about him.
