This morning Trump has come out against Don Blankenship in West Virginia, suggesting people remember Alabama!
To the great people of West Virginia we have, together, a really great chance to keep making a big difference. Problem is, Don Blankenship, currently running for Senate, can’t win the General Election in your State...No way! Remember Alabama. Vote Rep. Jenkins or A.G. Morrisey!

In case you aren’t familiar with Blankenship, here’s his latest ad which is just bad. Here’s a good Fox News article on the WV race, which they say is a toss-up right now.
The primary election is tomorrow.
Trump also defended his CIA nominee Gina Haspel, pointing the absurdity finger at Democrats on why they oppose her:
My highly respected nominee for CIA Director, Gina Haspel, has come under fire because she was too tough on Terrorists. Think of that, in these very dangerous times, we have the most qualified person, a woman, who Democrats want OUT because she is too tough on terror. Win Gina!

Trump then defends himself on the Russian ‘Witch Hunt’ and hits back at the 13 Democrats on Mueller’s team:
The Russia Witch Hunt is rapidly losing credibility. House Intelligence Committee found No Collusion, Coordination or anything else with Russia. So now the Probe says OK, what else is there? How about Obstruction for a made up, phony crime.There is no O, it’s called Fighting Back

The 13 Angry Democrats in charge of the Russian Witch Hunt are starting to find out that there is a Court System in place that actually protects people from injustice...and just wait ‘till the Courts get to see your unrevealed Conflicts of Interest!

Trump is obviously referring to District Judge T.S. Ellis reprimand of the Mueller team last Friday. However I’d caution Trump before making predictions on what the judge will actually do in this case. It may not turn out the way he wants.
