One is a jobs the killer and the other is not.
Hillary promised to put coal miners out of work, why? because she is not in touch with reality

Are you pretending that mining is a growth career now, lol?

Hillary doesn't need to do a thing.
Coal is in a hole because of the free market. You've heard of it, maybe?
So why then is Hillary promising to put miners out of work?

Does it matter what she "promises"? Are you scared of her?
Let's focus on your guy - who I assume you think is winning.
Why is Trump promising he'll bring back the US steel industry?
Trump is promising to bring back American steel, because this is good for America you turd. Something Hillary does not care about

What about the 266% tariff that has already been slapped on Chinese steel?
Has that brought back the US steel industry?
266% of what?

Tell me in all seriousness, if you truly believe that Trump will bring the steel industry back to PA.
Good grief, have you looked at coal, it is cheap natural gas that is putting coal out of business. It is cleaner and more efficient. Alaska has a lot of it, and it is easy to obtain.

Trump will wiggle his short fingers and make it happen.
Clinton should have spun it that she was talking about making sure minors no longer had to work.
Her idiotic supporters probably would have believed it too.

It was a proposal to spend billions of dollars to retrain coal miners to do something else. A *proposal*. Trump makes proposals too lol. It's a typical liberal 'let's throw money at it' solution to a problem. The federal government throws money at Detroit and look at Detroit. It's a mess.
The miners know all about the effect of natural gas in their own industry, they work in it. What's happened is the EPA, under Obama, artificially increased the costs to burn coal in power plants. The EPA, coupled with the benefits of fracking, worked together to shut down coal mines and put miners out of jobs.
As an aside, anyone who voted for Obama voted to have their electric bills skyrocket; but they were unwittingly rescued from their idiocy by the fracking industry.
But Hillary came here this past week and people in coal country wanted none of it or her. Maybe Trump can't be trusted; but they know for a fact liberal democrats can't be trusted on jobs or energy---because they've proven it. The national Democrats are in bed with the Green Movement. Given their way, they'll get around to regulating the fracking industry which will kill jobs and put an economic burden on consumers. I could be wrong, but I don't see Trump doing that and he would likely reign in the EPA which would give coal a much needed boost in the energy market. Maybe it wouldn't be enough, but there's only one way to find out.
Hillary said she was going to kill coal mining jobs. What went unsaid, was that she would do it for the sake of ideology. Cheap natural gas doesn't mitigate that, because if natural gas didn't kill coal, she was going to finish the job Obama started.
Hillary stands zero chance in WV, even after dangling her billion dollar proposal. People here have common sense, we turned down Obama, twice. And their prepared to roll the dice on Trump.
