As an out-of-stater, I haven’t seen Blankenship’s commercials; but I did watch his debate with his opponents. Jenkins looked and spoke as phony as they come and Morrisey wasn’t much better.
Blankenship had the best comeback when he responded to a question his opponents had answered; “They’re both right. They lied.”
How many people thought Trump could win? Blankenship seems as authentic as Trump. Just more subdued with a drier sardonic humor.
I believe him when he says that the federal Bureau of Mining -UBM was primarily responsible for that mining explosion because of their air flow regulations.
Being down on the coast I know that BSEE was primarily responsible for the most recent Gulf oil spill; not British Petroleum. BSEE was on that rig that exploded. Why weren’t they supervising safety procedures? BP was extorted by the Obama EPA to fork out billions of dollars. BSEE just added extra ‘federales’ to make the same mistakes again.
Blankenship can win with the same fed up voters that elected Trump.
By the way, thank you BP for the new police station and fire station and other crazy things that the BP money was used to pay for down here to prevent further oil leaks. Yeah, that was sarcasm.
Blankenship says wonderful things like “ the Cine people” instead of the word Chinese. He’s made false accusations about cocaine smuggling about Yertle (and I ain’t a fan of the turtle but truth is truth). Just like Roy Moore good old Dam doesn’t care about WV or the country or Trump. He is a self aggrandising thief and von artist. All he cares about is his own power. His ego drives him and nothing else
Guaranteed if Dan is the candidate WV stays dem
