“They wanted hope,” Blair Zimmerman says of his fellow miners in Greene County, Pennsylvania, who put their faith in Trump. “If someone that has a sickness or a cancer and the doctor says ‘I can cure that,’ they believe … I can’t blame them or question them for trusting (Trump).”
Now a county commissioner, Zimmerman is part of a local group hoping to lure natural gas investors from Texas to drill in Pennsylvania and he scoffs at the Trump administration’s efforts to deregulate coal-fired power plants. “It will help this much,” he says, holding his fingers an inch apart. “But it won’t bring back coal as king.”

these poor people bought into DT BS and now most of them realize it was BS. He took advantage of people looking for a miracle and then turned his back on them.Comment -
the sad truth is most of true R knew coal was gone, these R, for the most part, are people that believe in the market, and the market has turned its back on coal. how many of these same R told the truth to these people, none. they sold out the people, they sold out the truth not for the country but for the party.
this is only one reason why the current R party is almost as evil as the orange man himself.Comment -

The free market decides the way it always does.
Coal is obviously a lot better off now than if Crooked was elected. But coal is not going to compete with $42 oil.
May the lowest cost of energy win so that working folks pay the least for their energy needs. I think we can all agree with that.Comment -
just because the cost is low doesn’t make it the best option? Roy Even you gotta admit there’s a reason why no one but trump was pushing coal so he could win a few states here and thereComment -
exactly correct, all of them probably not, many of them absolutely. when was the last time you saw a KKK member, or a white nationalist, or a neo-Nazi, or any of those crazy bastards back a progressive or even a D? it is just so obvious but people like roy and other idiots deny the absolute facts.
see "the partisan brain."Comment -
just let it all play out my friends, I want this asshole to finish his last two years, does any single person with more than one brain cell believe he will become more or less crazy? an easy question right. if he even destabilizes the asshole party for even a decade it will be worth the pain.
it never fails in our country, never. the country accepts the progressive view on virtually every single argument since day one. the progressives meet roadblocks, and bumps in the road (DT is one huge bump) but when the game is over when the dealing is done the conservative philosophy is on the junk heap of past failures.Comment -
Agree, but the price maybe more than what you think. This same strategy was used in Brazil back in the 80's. It took 2 decades for the country to recover. Now they elected the Trump of South America.
Lets not forget that this is a class war & not everyone in the Dem party is your friend.
