West Virginia Senate candidate, coal baron and ex-convict Don Blankenship said in a statement Monday that he is “Trumpier than Trump” and that “no one” can tell his fellow West Virginians how to vote.
The statement was issued in response to President Donald Trump’s tweet urging voters to choose anyone in Tuesday’s West Virginia Republican Senate primary other than Blankenship.

And my lawyer is Giulianier than Giuliani.
And I’m more de-regulatier than the de-regulators.
Never surrender, Miner-Murderer Don. Resist those RINO’s!
“Hey, I am more fascist than he is!!! C’mon!!”
Translation: I’m an ever bigger asshole.
Oh, FFS…
