And that’s basically it!
He should get a medal saying "cleverest and bestest person of the entire universe". Hold that thought. Wondering what the stupidest thing is, which people could bring him pride in accepting
This was such a comical read! It's like reading a joke made into a serious article:
President Donald Trump has added another shiny award to his cabinet of trophies that have just been invented
"I'm thrilled to welcome to the White House the men and women who light our cities, and you know, you do things that people don't even understand, so much, you do so much. You heat our homes, fuel our factories and turn natural resources into American riches and dreams. Our amazing coal miners.”
“I ended the war on coal,”
It is not the first time Trump has been the “inaugural recipient” of an award presented by those looking to curry his favor.
a bronze statue of a coal miner on the top and was engraved with “Undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal.”
Infantino also handed Trump “a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go,”
At this point I'm convinced they're inventing shiny stuff to keep the drooling senior happy until it's time to replace him.
Agree! It basically says so in the first sentence of the article!
President Donald Trump has added another shiny award to his cabinet of trophies that have just been invented
He sure does like his minors
Eyooooo!
Its just so fucking stupid on its face. How anyone thought calling it “clean coal” was anything besides dumb as fuck is beyond me.
Then you should visit Colstrip, Montana or similar coal towns. The propaganda works very well when it's taught from before birth and everyone goes along even if they don't agree!
See, I understand that. What I dont understand is why every other non-coal town trump supporter didn’t immediately understand that this was a stupid as fuck grift immediately after hearing it.
You simply can't criticize your own team.
And that attitude has metastacized into something even worse in the last decade or so.
Cognitive dissonance and cultism.
Its just really frustrating at how easy it is. Like really fucking disheartening.
Someone should offer to present him with "America's most talented child molester" award. At this point he'll probably be dumb enough to accept it, and brag about it
This guy has one hell of a trophy obsession.
They're all participation trophies, as he can't win anything of real value.
FIFA peace price of "at least you tried". Renewable energy price of "didn't understand the task, but cried when he didn't get a medal".
He's such a weird snowflake
Apparently the participation trophies are fine when they're the ones getting them.
It should be "of beautiful black coal"
Makes for a better acronym
BCC - Brainless Cucked Cunt
So he won a made-up award about a made-up technology. Sounds about right.
So ‘Undisputed Champion of Utter Fraud’ then.
That would be one of the few awards he actually deserves.
The child rapist has had about 7 decades of practicing fraud to win that award.
I wonder what the bribees gets in exchange for this made up trophy that means nothing.
Read the news. Extended life for coal power plants, upgrades, department of war signing contracts for buying coal energy etc.
