I keep hearing how yesterday was a complete vote against Trump and a total repudiation of his policies yet the democrat candidate supports many of Trumps policies.

For some reason our democrat party friends can’t give specifics

20 points.

BAM!

If he doesn't side with Trump on bringing coal mining jobs back, he won't hold that seat long.

Coal mining is not coming back. I bet these dopes believed trump's campaign promises.

"Another coal mine in Pennsylvania is closing, despite the efforts of pro-coal President Donald Trump. Though Trump has slashed environmental regulations, market forces are hurting coal’s chance for a revival.

The closure of the 4 West Mine in Greene County will cost 370 miners jobs, as StateImpact Pennsylvania recently reported."

Yeah, write Saccone and your hero, Orangetweet, and tell them how irrelevant you think it is. I'm sure they'll both agree.

[Stretch]

Why would they? He's not a far-left guy.

Exactly, that's the point.

This is exactly how it went down in the George Dumbya Bush years....no matter how bad Dumbya was fucking up, no matter how far down he dragged the country and his own party, no matter how many oceans of irrefutable evidence arose indicating the Dumbya presidency was a disaster....conservative message boarders went to bat for, defended, supported, and ran interference for Dumbya....with every fiber of their being.

I do not think I could respect myself if I allowed myself to be a mindless propagandist, a trained monkey, a Pavlovian dog in the deferential service of a mediocre, incompetent fool. My hypothesis is that self-respect and dignity are to conservatives....what sunshine is to a vampire.

You can't handle the truth.
A 20 point swing in a Trump district, in a year and a half can not be ignored.
But you go ahead and ignore it.
Lol

[Cancel 2020.1]

Complete sophistry

The democrat candidate said in an interview that Trump was very popular in the district yet you maintain you know more than the democrat candidate about said district?

Interesting

I'm a bit taken aback. I mean, you know that this is how politicians speak in the midst of a competitive race, right?

You have to know that...right?

What if he helps bring a new industry to the region that creates safer, cleaner, better paying jobs?

Would he get to stay then?

Says the DNC states attorney, under the PA Constituon if 3 people from each precinct in the district petition for a recount within 5 days of the last tally then it will be automatically triggered.

But it has to be for a legitimate reason, like having convincing evidence of voter fraud, etc.

Not likely here.

If President Trump were so reviled as you and your fellow libtards claim, Lamb could have gone scorched earth on him and won even bigger right?

You are contradicting yourself.

A coal miner in Coal country can only be described as a fool if they stay there

Great line, Cypress!

Especially applies to the American conservatives here in this thread.
