Trump has come out this morning urging his supporters not to vote for Blankenship. WTF??? Where is Bannon when we need him.

Trump not supporting someone who is for Trump and willing to out do Trump.

Here is to wish Blankenship the best of luck in tomorrow's primaries.
Had I lived in W. VA, I would be making robocalls on behalf of Blankenship.
Actually, he was convicted of a conspiracy to violate mine safety and health standards, a misdemeanor, and was sentenced to the maximum sentence of 1 year in jail because he skated from the two other felony charges against him (securities fraud and making false statements). That said, there is no question that he is lowest form of scum whose malfeasance resulted in the death of 29 miners.
