  4. I read something where there was a total of 70,000 jobs tied to coal (this was at least 7 or 8 years ago so probably less now). This was back when this idiot was calling it “beautiful, clean coal” like that magically makes it great. I don’t get why he would be pushing for this unless money was involved. Just for him, no one else because that’s how he works.

  6. I didn’t think it was possible to hate someone as much as I hate Trump. He is the Final Boss of climate villains.

  7. What was that about China’s climate pledge not being good enough?

  9. I really wish I had the balls to blow up some ~~pipelines~~ coal mines.

  10. 🤦‍♀️only to increase the country’s health issues 🤨
    Republicans don’t care about a beautiful country. They don’t care about life or liberty. Their hateful rhetoric has created a mental illness crisis making the country unsafe from within. Its greed has put foreign countries first for their financial needs. Look at Trump’s behavior with SA, Israel, Hungary, Russia. 🤨

  12. Stupid, Baby, Stupid. Release the trumpEpstein files for the innocent child rape victims.

  14. Republicans are the biggest f—king hypocrites on the planet. “Solar and wind are worthless, they need government subsidies to survive!” Meanwhile they’re just fine propping up a technology that’s worse in every way possible. Couldn’t be more obvious they are owned by the fossil industry

  16. Why doesn’t coal just pull itself up by the ol’ bootstraps?
