Nobody could have done what Ive done for #PuertoRico with so little appreciation. So much work!

He honored them with his bigly presence

The trip by @VP Pence was long planned. He is receiving great praise for leaving game after the players showed such disrespect for country!

Is it bad that I think this is one of the grosser things the administration has done?

A plotted PR stunt designed to exploit patriotism and demonize expression by the highest office in the country just makes me feel nauseous.

IIRC he tweeted a picture of him and his wife before the game about how excited they were.

He tweeted the same picture 3 years ago.

"Alternative parody account of how a mature, more presidential Trump should tweet.


"[T]he original version of this story included a citation of condolences from President Trump on Twitter that was not, in fact, from the president's authentic Twitter account. The citation has been removed. Apologies for the error."

And lol at CNN for showing a stack with steam coming out of the top of it with overcast skies behind it. Anyone who works in a coal plant knows right away that is nothing more than steam. Lmfao.

Uhhh when some of the ways we generate electricity are harmful to our health, it's absolutely right.

He just did. EPA overreach is going to be gone. Companies can stop dealing with bullshit and take care of their workers more. The workers can provide for their children better and give them a real future.

Finally something this administration has followed through on.

Now just add a damn offsetter for children in the proposed tax plan and get that passed. As of now, the plan is broken without a way to add for children in families on your deduction.

Yes. Workers have taken a beaten in the contract talks for years over the EPAs war on coal. Now the workers can have a chance again. A good day to know the government is not trying to kill jobs of American Workers.

Contracts don't run yearly usually. Arcelor Mittal and US Steel just did contracts last year.

But coal is coming back, baby!

Maybe mine jobs? But you can't bring back mine jobs until you prop up coal jobs to buy what they mine.
