I'm really confused. I sat this one out because I didn't believe either one, and my concerns are becoming a reality.

So, word is out that Trump won't cancel Iran nuclear deal, won't reverse transgender bathroom laws, won't repeal ObamaCare, is looking for a way to provide amnesty to a lot of illegals and is filling his transition team with lobbyists. You take that away and what is left of his platform?

Can't bring back coal jobs without higher natural gas prices, but plans on fracking for more of it, so that won't work. Help me make sense of this.

He's gonna say a lot of complimentary shite about Obama in the next 30 days IMO. It doesn't mean much.

Well let's see what happens. He's not even in office yet. He hasn't even announced his cabinet yet.

The one thing, out of all you listed, is the Iran deal. Guarantee that gets ripped the frick up. I do believe Trump will get a new deal in place though.

Someone follows occupy democrats on facebook. You're a fricking journalist, do your own independent research and quit trusting the political media, specifically the liberally slanted.

Love ya Jimmy

That depends on the energy market. If coal becomes cheaper than oil, NG, etc., then coal mining will kick in again.

Loads of factors come into predictions of energy production. Social (environment primarily), political (war/trade/and pressures from foreign and domestic groups), economic (supply/demand of alternatives).

Too volatile for me to predict either way currently.

I don't think anyone can help you make sense out of anything you just wrote since none of it is true (except for maybe the transgender bathroom laws, which I don't think was even a part of his 100 days agenda.)

Have you been watching or reading anything post election? Are you chalking it all up to being liberal propaganda?

Heard Priebus on Rush yesterday say that they want to keep Pre-existing conditions and 26 year old exemption. But still going to kill the mandate, cross-state insurers and end mandatory coverage clauses among others.. That is not "keeping Obamacare."

Don't believe the media. Just wait to see what he does.

So fracking for more of it won't create jobs? Is he going to render it from the shale using the magical properties of lib tears?

In other words, you're "concerned"?
