Trump's support in Wyoming rightfully eroding

[TexasTowelie]

Donald Trump’s largest margin of victory last November was in Wyoming, where he defeated Hillary Clinton by 46 percentage points. Today, however, at least one major polling group shows his support in the Cowboy State is dropping —though not to the level he deserves after his disastrous past month.

Trump is presiding over a mangled, twisted wreck of a presidency 10 months after his inauguration, and I don’t see it getting any better. His latest disgrace — berating San Juan’s mayor for criticizing the inadequate federal response to Puerto Rico’s decimation — is more than I can stomach.

Trump is an embarrassment to this nation and our fundamental values. I don’t say that lightly. Like most Americans I was taught to respect the office of the presidency even if I strongly disagreed with the occupant’s political views. But if we love our country and don’t want to see the presidency degraded even further, Trump needs to be removed from office.

I’m hardly alone. Quinnipiac University released a poll last week, before Trump’s feud with the mayor, that shows 56 percent of voters think Trump is not fit to serve as president. That’s astonishing.

1. Another reason is

the promise of all those Coal Jobs that were to magically appear. Their State Budget is in the toilet as the result of depending on Extraditable Resources. And the World has moved on to Renewables thus the collapse of their Coal Industry.

Live by Coal,you die by Coal.

2. I've also read some comments over the past few months

that indicate that it costs less to mine Appalachian coal compared to Wyoming. The legislation introduced in Congress widens the disparity between the two types of coal.

3. Appalachian Coal is what is

called Thermo Coal meaning it has a higher BTU output. Wyoming and North Dakota Coal has a lesser BTU value making it unusable for Steel Making and for use in some Coal Burning Power Plants. Montana has just expanded their Thermo Coal production at the Coalstrip Mine,not sure what the new pit is named. This Coal is shipped off shore to the Asian Market and India.

Here is what is really interesting. Rocky Mountain Power is in the process of building out their Wind Farm east of and north of Evenston and a Transmission Line to Apex Sub Station north of Vegas. This new power will be marketed to L.A. and other Cities here in the South West.
