Hillary Clinton: "We Are Going To Put A Lot Of Coal Miners & Coal Companies Out Of Business"

[Drango]

Is this from the Onion?

[Robert A Cook PE]

She lies. They lie.

What’s not to like?

(Oh, by the way.) This “Act” is another attempt to shut down mines by adding new regulations to those already killing the business.

[BenLurkin]

And pi$$ away 30 billion dollars on government boondoggle programs.

[ColdOne]

He is full of it. Pure BS. Who will believe this though? We have all heard her and obama say they want to destroy coal.

[Jim Robinson]

Take their pay checks and their homes.

[freedom1st]

Trumka, you don’t care about your members. You’re a big as liar as Hillary and just as corrupt.

[jazusamo]

Richard Trumka is a thug and a liar, of course everyone here already knows that.

[Joe Boucher]

Somehow i believe miners would rather WORK, than receive welfare checks.
Trumka is out of touch.
Hey West By GOD Virginia,
You fools about fed up with Manchin, YET?

[ColdOne]

One more thing....this tells me they are having problems with the coal vote.

[Steely Tom]

When she was Senator from New York, she announced a plan to bring jobs to Upstate New York.

Not one detail ever came out about that plan, nor did any action.

And besides, “revitalize coal communities” means “strengthen government in coal communities.” It doesn’t mean bringing mining jobs back, which she’s already stated she wants to destroy, not save. Just like her Democrat predecessor, who Trumka also backed.

Notice that Trumka doesn’t even use the word “mining” to describe these regions.

[mdittmar]

I thought I heard that "Stronger Together" theme of hillarys somewhere before.

It's the afl-cio theme.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

So after laying waste to the coal community she comes in with taxpayers money and says “we got your backs”. Pandermonium.

[Bryan24]

So, their plan is too put the coal miners out of business, then put them all on government support programs?

[Rebelbase]

Hillary has a $300 million dollar plan to put cola miners back to work.

Trump can do it with one swipe of the pen.

[Rebelbase]

Oops, $300 million = $3 billion.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

"Based on AFL-CIO’s annual report to the U.S. Department of Labor, the union coalition paid Trumka a gross salary of $272,250 plus $49,881 in other disbursements during its 2014 fiscal year ending June 30. Trumka’s total pay of $322,131 was the equivalent of a $154.87 hourly wage."

From 2014

Trumka is a pimp.

[WMarshal]

I am the son of a coalminer, I grew up in South East Montana in a coal mining boom town and I know what evil Hillary Clinton, Obama, and the Democrat Party has done to the coal mining industry - just for bribes and votes. There’s a special place in hell for people like Hillary Clinton, Obama, and the AFL-CIO goons who steal money from their members and sell them down the river.

F&@k you Hillary and the AFL-CIO!

[FlingWingFlyer]

Little Dick Trumka again. Commie ‘Rat union thug extraordinaire.
