The Donald's end to the "War on Coal" is failing, coming up against reality


The  Los Angeles Times posted a story yesterday about the communities in coal country are realizing The Donald's promises to end the "war on coal" are nothing but empty.  The Donald deluded himself and others into thinking that America's push to have cleaner and renewable sources of energy was an all-out battle to destroy the coal industry.

Whether or not coal country towns like Homer City, Pennsylvania believed The Donald and his campaign promises, they are finding out that that there is no war on coal, people are just, moving toward better options, like wind and natural gas.

Just two months ago, TEPA Administration Scott Pruitt claimed thousands of jobs had been created in coal mining, but reality showed a completely different story.

Read the story here:

The Donald has now declared a war on the environment although he does not see it as such.  But by rolling back protections preventing the pollution of our waters, air and soil, he has.  Although both The Donald and Pruitt deny the climage is changing, there is insurmountable data showing not only climate change, but global warming as well.  There is no data to disprove this, yet they insist on burying their heads in the sand.

Unfortunately, that does not leave places like Homer City with many options.  Read the story here:
