Coal is not dead. Big in Wyoming, Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia. Was dead the last 8 years yes. No I'm not an expert on coal. But someone will nit-pick what I'm saying. The guy asked me to list a few things Trump has done for Americans, I listed a few wins.RYME said:
Donald Trump is not your average politition. He's only been involved for about 2 years. Did you see the story about how Donald Trump got a few Americans out of Egypt recently? I call that a win. The war on coal is over and you have 35,000 coal workers back to work. I call that a win. Got the Keystone Pipeline under way, I call that a win. Trump is working with GM, Ford, & Toyota to invest in keeping their operations here. Win. Taking the regulatory boot off the necks of American businesses win. Right now if you buy a $2000 home furnace or water heater, do you know that about $500 of that is passed on regulatory fees. I don't know the details, but the Wisconsin Dairy Farmers got a bad deal with Canada, Trump wants to fix that.
Most people have no idea what it takes to get a damn beer bottle in your hand. I haul sand, soda ash & slag for a glass company. Semi trucks average 6 &1/2 miles/gallon. One glass company takes 12 loads of sand, 4 loads of soda ash, 4 loads of slag, and 4 loads of lime, and 6 loads of cullet per day. So 30 truck loads /day. They operate 24-7-365. This is in addition to railroad cars.
They heat all that to 3200 degrees. Make millions of beer bottles, soy sauce and steak sauce bottles. Those bottles have to be trucked to the brewerys, the brewerys have loads and loads of ingredients trucked in to make their products. They make the beer. The beer than is trucked to distribution centers. Then to the stores. You drive to store or bar to buy. You enjoy beer, wine or booz, or use soy sauce. Then toss bottle into recycle. Recycle trucks take to recycling center. Cullet is trucked again back to glass facility. The glass company uses 50% raw material and 50% recycled cullet. This is ONE glass company. So if you are worried about carbon footprint, don't drink or eat anything.
And by the way, I'm not on Twitter or Facebook. I developed my own opinions based on life experience, damn sure nobody's parrot.Post edited by RYME on0 -
This seems like a fantasy, do you have any data to evidence it?RYME said:
Attitudes about the POTUS don't have much to do with employment.
My cousin was a coal miner for 20 years, he works as a lineman now because they don't need very many humans to mine coal anymore. Laborers are almost nonexistent, machines do the work and engineers and technicians run the machines.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -

The population is 30-odd million, and Trump giving 0.1% of them their unskilled jobs back in a dangerous, automation-embracing, environmentally-harmful industry is a win?RYME said:

Facilitating easier access to non-renewable resources, further incentivizing the lingering of a detrimental industry, rather than investing in technologies to perpetuate the human race, is a win?
Keeping companies in America with ultimatums that (regardless of choice made) increase cost of products to customers is a win?
Trump said last month that Canada and the US have a great trade deal ongoing. This month, as you acknowledged, it's the worst inequality, and comes completely unsubstantiated. This inconsistency should be ignored and read as a "win"?
As for your identification of the process of brewing - yes, it's costly from an emissions standpoint. When I can afford it, I try to source local product. When I can't, I don't. Inefficient processes should be made more efficient by locating materials closer together, and it's a shame that transport and human resources must be consumed so much. What the hell does this have to do with Trump, though?'05 - TO, '06 - TO 1, '08 - NYC 1 & 2, '09 - TO, Chi 1 & 2, '10 - Buffalo, NYC 1 & 2, '11 - TO 1 & 2, Hamilton, '13 - Buffalo, Brooklyn 1 & 2, '15 - Global Citizen, '16 - TO 1 & 2, Chi 2

Here's your poll that matters:
http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/24/politics/senate-intelligence-committee-russia-investigation/index.html
An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Monday found that 73% of respondents want an independent commission instead of Congress to investigate Russia's interference. Only 16% of respondents said they preferred Congress.
So much for Trump's ties to Russia fading into history and being irrelevant.

Therein lies the problem. You don't know what he's talking about, but you believe there's a problem and you believe he's going to fix it, despite all the evidence that Trump rarely tells the truth or, indeed, has any grasp of the issues he's talking about.
And please post your source for 35,000 coal miners back to work.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -
2018Not sure as long as the investigation is headed by Comey I don't see orange bafoon getting impeached, the senate investigation is basically dead ..
To many Republicans don't give a fuck that our election process was manipulated by a foreign government just as long a republican in in office...
You can bet your bottom $ if HC had won the election the same way bafoon did the GOP establishment would be going nuts for impeachment !jesus greets me looks just like me ....0 -
What I don't understand is that most people on here want Trump to fail. That's what I'm getting out of this thread so far.
Screw up good enough so we can impeach him?
I'd be more scared of what's waiting to succeed him...

I want him to fail to spend billions on a boondoggle border wall.
I want him to fail to take healthcare coverage from millions of Americans.
I want him to fail in his attempts to wreck the environment with pollution.
I want him to fail to give himself tax cuts to the detriment of everyone else.
I want him to fail at sabotaging mutually beneficial trade relationships for the sake of a few rich buddies.
I want him to fail to provoke a war so he can feel tough.
The list goes on and on, how could I not want him to fail to accomplish a batshit ridiculous policy strategy.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -

He's already presented us with enough to be impeached. He hired his kids and he profits personally from his position as president, violating the emolument clause.tempo_n_groove said:What I don't understand is that most people on here want Trump to fail.

You don't think everyone else in his cabinet will be doing the same? This boggles my mind that getting rid of him stops all these things.rgambs said:

That being said, Thank you for clarifying. I'm always curious as to why someone would want him to fail. I'm actually rooting for someone to tweak Obama care without the loss of coverage to anyone.Post edited by tempo_n_groove on0 -
If so how come no one is reacting? If he broke laws get his ass out then. Are the Dems afraid of who will succeed him?Go Beavers said:0 -
The dems don't have enough votes, and pence sucks hard, but he can be more predictable and his stance would be pretty reagan-like. He can string together words to form complete sentences.tempo_n_groove said:0 -
I would think that the GOP would want him removed too if he is that erratic and Pence would presumably play ball?Go Beavers said:
Merely asking the question.
