Coal miners speak out after the Trump administration removed black lung protections: "They’re doing everything they can to hurt the working man. They ain’t worried about the miners or people in West Virginia or coal miners anywhere. All they’re worried about is the almighty dollar in DC. They don’t care about the little people that put them there."

Can we stop acting like either party cares about the people?

Coal miners are required to wear respiratory PPE in the mines, this is OSHA standard. Following safety standards prevents black lung

the other option was a woman who hates everything they stand for (being white working class) really a lose-lose

“I don’t think people should face the consequences of their actions.” These are adults people. Not children.

Conservatives already thrive on a lack of empathy for others. We can not do the same, we have to be the ones who care.

Would be cool if there was an opposition party that offered them literally anything other than “we aren’t trump” and vote shaming! Learn any lessons? Nah let’s just keep vote shaming them till they like us

Its a shame that this is happening. People on here are saying they don’t deserve this even though they voted for it. My question is then how do we best protect them from voting against their best interests?

😭 There are a few of us here voting against him trust.

It makes me sad as someone who grew up in WV. People here don’t have access to unbiased news or education on politics to understand the severity of republican lies. They hear a guy say he’s gonna help them, they believe him. Then, the news just fills them with more lies.
