Tell me this doesn't sound like a Donald Trump rip off the tax payer deal...

From the Wilbur Ross that bailed out Trump from a Taj Mahal bankruptcy and moved on to a leading position at the bank of Cyprus where the Russians enjoy doing business..... I give you one of my thoughts about why Trump cares about coal. 

Wilbur Ross sold the coal business he owned, International Coal Group (ICG) for 3.4 BILLION dollars in 2011. When he was known as the "king of bankruptcy". He bought failing things and flipped them. The company Ross sold ICG too (Arch Coal) filed bankruptcy in 2016. And erased 5 billion in debt including environmental clean up costs. 

Talk about a sweet deal. Ross pockets 3.4 billion. Tax payers get the 5 billion dollar bill?

Someone good enough to launder the Russians money. Who was known as the king of bankruptcy. Probably in some way got back in to the coal industry after he made billions and put tax payers on the hook for a multi billion dollar bankruptcy bill. 

Clean coal is like saying i shit air freshener turds. The con man Trump and his boys will sell you air freshener turds. Nothing better to freshen the room you display your Trump U diploma in.

I agree with your assessment of the business dealings.

But, on clean coal, Ohio State was getting somewhere with their research on clean coal.
I'm sure there's some boondoggling, like pumping Co2 down into the earth, but I do think there is a way.

Also...Warren Buffett and George Soros were buying coal 2-4 years back.
I'm not seeing where they bankrupted their holdings, nor even sold.
Something is afoot.
