..... and the politicians, coal companies, right wing talk, and their pastors are still
selling them the lies. Natural gas is cheaper, cleaner, and easier to use then coal
and most of the power plants have switched over and they are not going back.

For a con man like Trump McDowell County, WV was easy pickings.
