Trump is the president-elect, and it's our civic duty to call out elected officials making misleading or outlandish claims, just like we've been calling out Obama for his stance on surveillance and whistleblowing for years now. This is especially true for the long-debunked claim that coal jobs can be brought back, despite the perpetual coal pandering of every politician under the sun. And I say that as someone who spent the first two decades of his life in Appalachia, though mine was a crumbling former oil town rather than a crumbling former coal town.

> The, us against them (in this case miners, not exactly the 1%) is not healthy and OT.

Yeah, it sure is frustrating when people don't help promote social stability by refusing to love your preferred leader isn't it? Welcome to our lives for the last eight years, when we've had to hear about how "divisive" Obama is, as evidenced by the fact that people don't like him because he's so divisive.
