So North Carolina wants Republicans so they can have coal waste? Let them have all the coal waste they can choke on. Why should Democrats care about the environment in red states if the states themselves don’t care? Maybe someday they can visit western states and see what there’s could have been. I’m fine with red states poisoning their environment as long as they stay out of mine.

NC repubs are ok with coal waste, losing their healthcare, offshore drilling, etc., as long as it pisses off the stoopid libruls. The MAGA is strong around here.

If only we could limit all of the pollution to Trump country. Unfortunately, we have to share the planet with these imbeciles.

Sad, but we rarely hold those who pollute accountable no matter who is president. WV did at least throw Blankenship in prison for a short while but even at that, he should still be there for killing 29 miners. For that he got one year.

This is America: justice is sold to the highest bidder.

That’s the way it should be. It’s in the Bible.

What are you, a communist?

Sad but true all around (and yes, I get accused of that quite often).

Oh heck, anything pisses off "stoopid libruls". It wouldn't matter what they did, left-wing nutjobs will still have a temper tantrum, stomp their little feet and generally act like a spoiled 2 year old. As you have so well demonstrated.

As long as it ticks off libruls who cares if pollutes the environment, conservatives are immune to coal ash.
