Bill Clinton is mocking “the coal people” in West Virginia because “they don’t like us, anymore” – but, it’s no wonder, given how the left’s war on coal has devastated lives, careers and communities in the state.

Campaigning for his wife, Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in Pittsburgh, Pa. on Friday, the former president took his shot at West Virginia’s “coal people” and mocked their concerns:

 “We all know how [Hillary’s] opponent has done well down in West Virginia and eastern Kentucky. The coal people don’t like any of us [Democrats] anymore.”

“They blame the president when the sun doesn’t come up in the morning now.”

In fact, it has not been sunny in West Virginia in recent years, thanks to the Obama Administration’s war on coal, which Hillary Clinton has pledged to continue:

Obama has even come right out and said that he wants to "bankrupt" Bill Clinton's "coal people."

So, no, the good people of West Virginia who’ve lost everything due to the left’s war on coal, probably don’t like those responsible for casting a dark cloud over their state.
