    You have to see Don Blankenship's campaign ads to believe them. He blames Obama for the mine explosion at Upper Big Branch and is using his race for a West Virginia seat in the US Senate for public exoneration. https://bit.ly/2JN8fL1 pic.twitter.com/vRRFpeFerB

        It's sadly real and there is an ad where he literally blames the govt for blowing up his mine and framing him for it, even though it exploded due to skirting safety rules and ignoring violations

        This con is responsible for the deaths of 29 coal miners and served just 1 year. Now he's running for Senate. Wonder how the families feel?

        I don’t know but I am very, very sad that our electoral system and media has deteriorated to this degree. How do we get out of this mess? #SendIntheUN #FBR

        As DJT's behavior gets normalized the Country will see more of these outrageous candidates; there is a holocaust denier who despises Jewish people running for senate in Ca. and he could be the only GOP to make it to the November ballot.

        I can't think of anyone as hated on this state as Don Blankenship, especially southern WV where I live. My Dad was 1 of 6 who were underground that day and survived so you can imagine how we feel about a total piece of garbage like him running for Senate
