Biden tells coal miners to "learn to code"
The Hill ^ | 12/31/19 2 hrs ago | Alexandra Kelley

During a rally yesterday, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden spoke to a crowd in Derry, N.H., a town that many miners call home. He acknowledged the economic setbacks and job insecurity that coal miners face these days, and gave them some advice: learn to code.

According to Dave Weigel of the Washington Post, Biden said, “Anybody who can go down 3,000 feet in a mine can sure as hell learn to program as well... Anybody who can throw coal into a furnace can learn how to program, for God’s sake!”

The professional fool coding contribution would be smart shotgun software.

And any Indian with an old Windows notebook can learn to code, as well - and will do it for $3/hour.

Maybe he can enroll Hunter in a class and then he can go to work in this country.

I think that Allens Coal Co in Derry NH is more of a distribution point for things. Selling coal to residents doesn't make them a mining company, just like selling wood pellets doesn't make one a Timber Tycoon.

I found this:

Business Description Allen's Coal Co is located in Derry, New Hampshire. This organization primarily operates in the Coal business / industry within the Miscellaneous Retail sector. This organization has been operating for approximately 35 years. Allen's Coal Co is estimated to generate $159,111 in annual revenues, and employs approximately 1 people at this single location. This is a women owned and operated business.

During the late 80's, Pac NW loggers were given the same advice in how to deal with the spotted owl. $$$ was spent at the local community college on IT education. Few signed up.

Most moved out of a once booming town that is today populated by drug users and welfare Mexicans.

Are coal mines in the Northeast anywhere near 3000 feet deep? That strikes me as extremely deep.

Coal miners tell Biden to learn to mine. ‘Cause that’s where he’s gonna be when the legs fall off his rickety platform stool. IF anyone would hire his lying, thieving self.

Mr. Malarkey doesn’t even know what “code” means.

“Allens Coal Co”

Apparently a good place to get Christmas trees, according to online reviews.

Twitter was banning conservatives for telling urinalists to learn to code.

Don’t ever think that Twitter would do the same to pedo Joe.

What is with politicians insulting the voters? Tucker Carlson is right - we have the worst political class/elite in the history of this county.

They hate you, want to replace you, tax you, ship your job overseas, and want you dead.

This is all unbelievable, but here we are.

I looked it up on Google Earth. They sell bagged coal. They may own a coal mine somewhere, but it isn’t anywhere near that office.

Hey Joe - You learn to code. Show them how

The stupidity is thick with Biden. He could never learn to code. I've been coding more than half a century, and it's an art. Not easy for anyone to switch gears and do it. However, anyone can become a fool; Joe Biden has mastered the art of idiocy.
