...and Trump lied. Where are all those coal jobs he promised to bring back?
And what was Hillary’s plan for those disappearing jobs that are never coming back?
Oh, yeah. This:

The mine closures alone were "catastrophic," according to a 2019 report by the Resource Legacy Fund, a nonprofit conservation group. Delta County went from 701 mining jobs in 2012 to 107 in 2016, a loss of more than 80%.
"Unlike some places that have a more gradual off-ramp or predictable decline, these mine closures came suddenly and significantly, allowing for little advance planning or preparation for what would come next," the report explained.
They were part of a broader decline in coal mining across the country, driven largely by cheap natural gas, which emits less carbon than coal, and the growing affordability of renewable energy. That decline is almost certainly a good thing overall, given the dangers of both mining and burning coal, but the short-term effects can also upend communities whose fates remain tethered to the coal industry.

Rural community that lost two coal mines is now teaching kids to install solar panels
And that has what to do with coal mines closing?which has what to do with the topic?
Nothing? You're just another RWNJ troll?
Cool.
Trolls which dwell in caves and rock-like faces, such as Death Plateau and the Troll Stronghold are known as mountain trolls. These are the most prosperous and numerous of the troll races. Important and notable trolls are generally from this breed and, though some mountain trolls are weaker than other breeds, they appear to be among the more resourceful, as they construct equipment from bone and granite, along with having a primitive society, such as guards, cooks and farmers.

Sadly inaccurate.2018 U.S. becomes a net oil exporter for the first time in 75 yearsThe US has been energy independent since the Obama Administration, and a net exporter of refined petroleum since 2011. This is just another case of tRump riding the trajectory set by someone else.I would guess that during the time President Trump was campaigning, he never imagined that we would become not only emery-independent, but a net-exporter of oil and gas for the first time in this country's history.
Coal is nice for keeping the power grid going, but oil and natural gas production has really boomed in this country. So coal has to take a back seat.
Oh, and those two coal mines that shut down? They were in Colorado. Nobody thinks of "Colorado" when someone says "coal."

Yet your article doesn’t have a single quote of Obama promising anything.Plenty. Obama Kept His Promise, 83,000 Coal Jobs Lost And 400 Mines ShutteredWhat did Obama do to harm the coal industry? That was frackers and natural gas, not Obama.The market should be free and open so that the coal industry has the same opportunity as any other business. If they can't make it, it's not up to the government, nor Trump, to go against the free-market to bail them out.
It seems to me that, under Obama, the government acted like a fascist entity and tried to destroy the coal industry, and you cheered them on.
but Trumpy promised to bring coal back. Where is it?
Then see post #6.
Fine, AFAIK.How is the Clinton foundation doing?You’re making an assertion. Back it up with a reputable link.I see, you choose to remain stupid.Link? Quotes? You’re lying.Obama campaigned on shutting coal power plants down. What is you stupid or something?What did Obama do to harm the coal industry? That was frackers and natural gas, not Obama.

He’s complimenting their work ethic.Biden made a snarky remark to some coal miners. Way to lose votes, Joe.
“Anybody who can go down 3,000 feet in a mine can sure as hell learn to program as well,”
Biden tells miners to 'learn to program' in order to find 'jobs of the future'

Anyone else here burn coal?

Rural community that lost two coal mines is now teaching kids to install solar panels
At the top of the list, jobs in the mining and logging industry are up 13.5 percent since the election, well above the gains in construction and transportation, which made second and third place, respectively
I believe the same as the Clinton foundation.Fine, AFAIK.How is the Clinton foundation doing?You’re making an assertion. Back it up with a reputable link.I see, you choose to remain stupid.Link? Quotes? You’re lying.Obama campaigned on shutting coal power plants down. What is you stupid or something?
How is Trump University doing?
I guess construction businesses should shut down. Once you’ve built the houses then what?So you go to some little rural village after coal mines have been shut down and teach kids to install solar panels and then what? What sort of long term solution is that? It's as bad a solution as teaching them to run the fry machine at McDonalds, but worse!
Because people may be back tomorrow or after for more fries. But once your panels are up
then what?
Solar panel installers are not building roofs specifically so they can install panels in them. You are dealing with a service that is working with a finite amount of roofs. Once those houses have been serviced, and not every house wants solar panels by any means, that's the end of your usefulness.I guess construction businesses should shut down. Once you’ve built the houses then what?
You’re not smart.

You are considerably less smart.
