Do tell.
It is impossible to use reason with the Trump cultists, they are too drunk on the kool-aid.

Scary how people can be so completely brainwashed and deluded.

The future for energy employment in the US is in renewable energy, especially solar. Instead of delivering false promises to "coal country", Trump should be investing in renewable energy in these areas so these folks have a future.

LOL. You went on and on and on how Trump wasn't going to win PA. Just a few examples.

I see why you avoid those topics now. And likewise you are just as wrong about Hillary and coal jobs. In fact I do believe that in one of those posts you even said that they would have to move on if Hillary was elected.

I think it's safe to say there isn't anything you could possibly teach me about computers, if you are 35 years old or less I wrote my first line of code before you were born.

When I post something whether it's an assertion of fact, graph or whatever if someone asks for references I give it to them because otherwise I look foolish and it casts doubt on what I have said. I merely asking you to do the same thing.

Reason?

You can only resort to name calling. There is no "reason" to that at all. But it is the hallmark of some who can't address something said with logic or fact.

For a programmer who is unaware of saving image and going to google and doing a simple search is suspect. I'm asking for a rebuttal. If your unable to provide one, you shown i'm right and you can't prove i'm wrong.

That may be the way you would do it but that's awful lot of work when you can simply copy the URL and paste it into Google image search.

My abilities to search for images are not in question, what is in question is the references for the material you have posted.

Copying and pasting whatever shows up in Google is not the way research things or form an argument.

Coal is a dying industry , you can all pretend it is not as much as you like, but there are no new coal jobs under Trump. the numbers are rounding errors..

and of course the Mine opened in this thread is a Corsa Coal mine funded under grants given by Gov Tom Wolf, (Dem) and Obama... requested about 2015, confirmed sept 2016.

Trump has nothing to do this and Waldo etc already know this but pretend not to...
