Malcolm X mostly made the point I was going to. It's really amusing watch some lefties lament the fact that these poor, unionized coal miners will soon be unable to force non-union miners to pay them protection money, while at the same time these lefties openly cheer for the destruction of the coal industry. It'd be like Bernie Sanders unionizing health insurance workers right before he eliminates private health insurance. West Virginia realizes that having a hard job is better than having no job. So when you have an administration whose EPA once talked about "crucifying" fossil fuel companies, who is unilaterally imposing a probable illegal plan to shut down a significant number of existing coal plants, who specifically singled out coal for unfavorable export status, and whose supporters openly refer to West Virginians as bitter-clinger, knuckle-dragging, stupid redneck racist hetero-normative cis-sexist inbreeding hicks who believe in a sky fairy, is it really a surprise they don't vote Democrat?
