A massive crowd of coal miners roared with laughter as President Donald J. Trump delivered a trademark zinger aimed at Joe Biden’s energy policies during a rally in West Virginia coal country.
“For four years, Joe Biden tried to abolish the American coal industry — they did everything in their power… while he was awake, which wasn’t often,” Trump quipped, drawing booming laughter from the crowd.
The former president’s remarks came during a fiery speech defending America’s traditional energy industries and pledging to revitalize coal, oil, and natural gas jobs that were lost under the Biden administration.
Miners in attendance said Trump’s comments hit home, with many nodding in agreement as he blasted what he called the “radical green agenda” that has hurt working families and energy independence.
Trump reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to restoring American energy dominance, reversing Biden-era restrictions, and putting coal miners back to work.
The event marked yet another high-energy moment in Trump’s campaign trail, as he continues to rally strong support from blue-collar workers across the country.
