How happy do you think the leadership of the Democratic party is when they see this?
That's an interesting chain of events that could come into play in 2020 and give Trump some votes.

Quote:
You folks don't have a prayer against Trump in 2020.
"President Donald Trump has set records for receiving the lowest initial job approval rating and the highest disapproval rating."

"Trump is the first elected U.S. president to start out with a job approval rating below 50% in the history of Gallup surveys, which date back to Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1953."

Donald Trump Approval Ratings at Record Low for New President | Fortune


And Trump has the lowest overall approval ratings of any president since Truman.

Perhaps because of events like you described above Trump could have a chance in 2020, but to say a 1st term president with the lowest approval ratings in modern history has no chance of loosing his 2nd term election (that's a bit much.)

Jobs in the coal industry have declined because of mining machines taking the place of coal workers. And mining machines are constantly improving and taking more and more coal jobs. How will Trump stop mining machines from taking coal workers jobs?

The only thing Trump did for coal mining is to allow coal companies to dump waste into rivers and streams.

And before Trump allowed coal waste to be dumped into rivers and streams where did that waste go?
-That waste was disposed of by workers and those workers will now loose their jobs disposing of the coal waste.

Donald Trump overturns law preventing companies dumping coal mining debris in streams and rivers | The Independent


But Trumps deregulation of the coal industry will make it cheaper for coal companies to operate. But will coal corporations use those increased profits to hire new workers or buy more advanced mining machines?

Republicans live in a fantasy world believing corporate America cares about workers, and they believe when regulations are removed corporations hire more workers. But its the same corporate America that recently transferred Americas high paying manufacturing jobs to Asia to get cheaper labor.


In reality Trump and the republicans coal mining policies have one purpose, and that's to satisfy the coal corporations that give republicans vast amounts of campaign money.
https://www.opensecrets.org/industri....php?ind=E1210

And now because of Trump coal corporations can stop the expensive disposal of coal waste and just dump their waste into rivers and streams. And then the coal corporations can use their increased profits to purchase the newest coal mining machines (and lower their worker expenses and increase production at the same time.)

Has domes so far. Illegals are being deported in mass, the economy is booming and for the first time in a long time most Americans think the USA is on the right track again.
More people think that the country is on the wrong track than they did just prior to the election in October 2016.

So the coal industry is booming and hiring massive amounts of people and somehow that isn't creating jobs in coal? Or is your problem is that Coal Companies are making money?

"The coal mines that are opening up produce a special kind of coal used in steelmaking and are opening largely because of events unrelated to federal policy, experts say" (and these new coal mines opening have nothing to do with Donald Trump.)

My problem with coal is that coal pollution kills at least 7,500 Americans every year.

Also you aren't proven anything posting a Washington Post article. They are fake News.
But if the Washington Post publishes something that makes Trump look good (it will quickly become "real news.")

When you get to the point where you start referring to the Washington Post, or the New York Times, or NBC News, or CBS News, or ABC News or CNN or MSNBC, as “fake news” you're reaching the “hear no evil” and “see no evil” level of cultist denial.

It means that in terms of meaningful argument, you’re out of ammo.
