Trump betrayed the poor white people who voted for him

Rural voters may stop waiting for government to do anything for them and do something themselves, such as increasing the push for a constitutional convention. Rural poor could be the last in line to see any benefits of Trump's actions. That's not betrayal. That's the reality of trying to correct the mistakes and grift of the past few decades against tremendous opposition of the grifters, including many Pubs. But smallhold organic farms will become more important to the nation as the corporate megafarms die off. The megafarmers, along with the rest of corporate dystopia, will be screaming betrayal.

Trump's only working for the billionaires and the big corporations. Here's a quote from the article I referenced above.

. . . Though Trump’s pro-coal rhetoric may win him votes, none of his incentives are likely to bring jobs back, especially given the local effects of his trade and foreign policies. The type of rare coal found in this part of Appalachia is used not for power plants but to produce steel, particularly in China. But Trump’s trade war with the People’s Republic “has resulted in the imposition of an additional 15 percent duty on US coal imported into China,” explains Andrew Blumenfeld, a coal market expert with McCloskey, a mining data analytics firm. “This resulted in almost no US coal exports to China . . .

. . . The Trump administration has been trying to make matters a lot worse. Last spring, for instance, the administration attempted to lay off almost all of the employees at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), including the people running a program that administers benefits for miners stricken by black lung disease. The miners sued, and a judge ordered the administration to restore some of those jobs, but many employees haven’t returned. After intense lobbying by unions and unhappy members of Congress, the administration revoked all of the NIOSH layoff notices on January 13.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s proposed budget for 2026 would have slashed NIOSH funding by 80 percent this year, but in late January, Congress rejected the proposal and increased the budget by about $4 million. Trump’s Labor Department also has attempted to roll back safety rules that reduce the risk of mine collapses and other disasters.

The only meaningful benefits to mining communities had been coming, ironically enough, from the Biden administration, which in 2024 finally managed to enact a rule limiting miners’ exposure to the silica dust that causes the most severe forms of black lung, a variant that has become especially acute in younger miners. Because the most accessible coal seams are long gone, Appalachia’s miners must now bore through miles of stone, creating extremely dangerous fine particles that lodge in the lungs. But the Biden silica rule was put on hold last April after industry groups sued to block it, and the Trump administration has not defended it. . . .

. . . the president’s so-called One Big Beautiful Bill limits the amount students can borrow directly from the government’s low-interest loan program. It capped student loans for professional schools at $50,000 a year, with a lifetime cap of $200,000. The estimated cost of attendance (tuition plus expenses) at ASL is $82,800 a year. . . .

Trump claimed the cap was put in to protect students from burdensome debt, but critics counter that it is a giveaway to private lenders, who lost billions of dollars when President Barack Obama allowed the government to loan directly to students back in 2010, making borrowing more affordable while cutting out the middlemen—the big banks. . . .

Comfortably wealthy and salaried Democrats need to believe they help the poor, while benefiting from their exploitation. As expenses rose, small businesses were destroyed, jobs left, and the wages of remaining jobs stagnated or dropped, we reached a point that the poor couldn't be exploited more and survive. That finally pushed a populist through the gates and past the gatekeepers. The poor will be doing more that discomforts the comfortable. Corporations had a taste of coming changes when wage workers declined to go back to their miserable jobs after the covid lockdown.

Coal is very unhealthy to excavate and burn, but it's most of what we have left to generate electricity. No coal = no lights, no internet, this site is gone.

So the who sings about raping children, doing drugs, and drinking is going to be broadcasting on a Christian TV network.

Got it.
