of the people that have worked in the mines for generations. robie: that coal mine is something else, you know, you gotta take care of yourself in there. patrick: that fan is blowing about 200,000 cubic feet of air into the mine. fresh air. robie: when you go into that mine you don t know when you gonna live to see outside again. patrick: today, we re going about 5,000 feet. tony: 5,000 feet deep? patrick: yeah, oh yeah. it s a little bumpy ride in places.
around us whatever this man talks just like us. like how we talk to each other in the mines. saint pretty. it s straight talk. any say he tells it like it is. i don t know that s true. he says outrageous things that s refreshing. i gave up on political saviors a long time ago. to be naive to say there is one individual especially in government going to turn everything around. trump can bring change. and it s very kwielt simple. he is offensive, insendary nature sends out a word out to those representing in congress or whatever, if people get frustrated enough they re going to put somebody in there that s not like you. you know what i hope the things would come out of this is national dialogue. we have to start talking. we have to do it. he stops tweeteding from the foilt at 4:00 in the morning i d feel more comfortable. a little impulse control there.
