Schwarzenegger: Trump wanting to ‘bring coal back' was deal-breaker for me

[Wash Times] Arnold Schwarzenegger said Wednesday that he "fell in love" with the Republican Party decades ago but couldn’t bring himself to support President Trump because of his support for the coal industry.

"I am a Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan Republican," the former California governor told Van Jones on the CNN town hall series "The Messy Truth."

"Those are the kinds of Republicans that I can identify with," he said. "I’m not a Trump Republican. That’s why I didn’t vote for him."

#1 Lincoln, Roosevelt, and Reagan all warmed their backsides on a coal stove, but Arnold is right. He's "no republican."

#2 Neither are 'Republicans'. Then again, after spending 6 years bitching and moaning (and showboating) about Obamacare and repeal, neither is the GOPe.

#6 Let the market decide the fate of coal. Not Arnold, Trump, Hillary or Obama...and least of all Al Gore. The market is smarter than any of them or all of them put together. Besides, if we don't burn it the Chinese will and we burn it cleaner.

#7 Arnold would prefer tens of thousand be unemployed in exchange for an insignificant different in particulate matter in the air.
