It's also like some warped power trip version of the "tactics" Michael Scott finds on wikipedia about negotiations.

'I think Trump needs to show his face': Laid-off miners losing faith in coal promises

CUMBERLAND, Ky. — Protesting Kentucky coal miners sweated through a fourth day on top of a railroad track as they continued blocking a coal train from leaving a Harlan County mine.

Recently laid off, the miners are demanding weeks of back pay from their bankrupt employer as the company assets were put up for auction Thursday.

Images of frustrated coal miners playing cornhole on the railroad tracks helped draw national attention to the July 1 bankruptcy of mining company Blackjewel, which came without warning and sparked financial turmoil when paychecks bounced.

That led former Attorney General Greg? Stumbo, who is running for the office again and who visited the site of the coal standoff Thursday, to declare that state Labor Cabinet officials should be fired for failing to realize that Blackjewel had not posted a state-required payroll bond meant to protect miners in such cases.

Blackjewel’s collapse left more than a quarter of Harlan County’s miners jobless. Some say they have nearly given up on President Donald Trump’s long-promised coal revival.

"I think Trump needs to show his face” in Harlan County, said miner Scott Mefford, who was among the dozens of miners on the train tracks near a sign that read, "No Pay, We Stay.”

He targeted homeless people last night at a rally.
During the pause I thought he was gong to say he would fix it. (Cos he can cure cancer and aids now)
Like everything else.
Without a moments thought he started attacking them and the Californian governor.
Forgetting that they’re mostly Americans that are homeless.
Was gonna say what happened to making America great again but this one is a completely ugly new low for him.

You’re right. And that makes what he said even worse.

Republicans and Democrats must come together and get strong background checks, perhaps marrying....
This seems extreme

Blaming the media for a fire you keep fanning is pathetic and ugly, but it doesn’t ring nearly as ugly to me as implying that part of the solution to white-on-Hispanic violence is more restrictive immigration laws.

If we'd been tighter on immigration, those 6 Mexican citizens wouldn't have been in El Paso, and we'd have 6 less funerals.

C'mon, man!
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

He might as well come out and say “racial violence is a consequence of our refusal to separate the races.”

Anyone see the Texas Lt. Gov on Fox and Friends blaming violent video games? What is this? 1999? What was Hitler's favorite video game back in the day?
