Today, at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC 2017), the US President announced that he was ‘sorry’ to reveal that the miners would be going back to work.

But his following statement is what confused people the most.


At the conference, he said: ‘We’re going to have beautiful clean coal.’

Taking to Twitter, many people urged the president to explain what he meant by ‘clean coal’.



One said: ‘WTF is wrong with him? What part of coal is CLEAN? He’s a joke.’

Another added: ‘Beautiful clean coal? Tell that to miners with lung disease!

One person stated: ‘Trump just said “beautiful, clean coal.” The only time coal is clean is when it is left underground.’

Another added: ‘Beautiful, clean coal and the miners are going back to work… You know where coal is clean and beautiful?? In the earth.’

Huge roars of questions followed the bizarre statement which came after a diatribe about ‘blood-sucking consultants’.

Trump alleged that his recent tightening of immigration policy is to get ‘bad people out’.

He claimed that immigration officers are currently finding ‘drug dealers and criminal aliens and throwing them the hell out of our country’.
