    I know very little of the coal industry
    has trump really made it tremendous and created all these jobs for miners with the swing of his magic Nine iron?
    Isn't beautiful coal placed aside because of the cheap Natural Gas(insert dwight howard jokes).

    like Trump, I've won so many environmental awards. I can't even count them on my three hands. I do know that these people need health care it's one of the most dangerous jobs.

    The WV governor had been a republican up until running for Governor. Now as Governor, he switched back. btw... the republican party is welcome to have him, he seems a better fit, especially with Trump...

    Well, you remember the big news about the WV governor switching parties? Well, there is now a price for that, and saving all those thousands, er, hundreds of coal jobs in WV... $4.5B. Oh and btw, he owns coal mines in the area (though supposedly a different kind of coal, so this "doesn't directly pat himself on the butt.")
