MAGA Rages As Trump's Wrecking Ball Hits Appalachia - The Logical Leftist

[TexasTowelie]

MAGA towns in Appalachia are finally finding out what happens when the “wrecking ball” they voted for swings back on them.

In this video, we break down how Trump is clawing back billions in clean energy and community investments from the Inflation Reduction Act — money that was already earmarked to rebuild former coal communities, create jobs, and protect towns from floods, blackouts, and other climate disasters.

On day one back in office, Trump moved to eliminate many of these clean-energy and environmental programs as “woke scams.” The catch? The hardest-hit places are the deep-red rural counties that delivered him 70–80% of the vote.

We’ll cover:

How Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act targeted coal country with nearly $1 billion for job training, solar projects, environmental cleanup, and resilience planning

How groups like Coalfield Development in Appalachia built real, concrete opportunities — and then watched Trump rip them away

The canceled EPA grant in Lee County, Virginia, where 85% voted for Trump and nearly half rely on food stamps, that would have removed a toxic, flooded supermarket and built a flood-resilient green space

How Trump-backed areas like Dante in Russell County lost funding for basic services: a new fire station, a solar-powered resilience hub, and more

Farmers who voted for “less government” now begging for bailouts after Trump’s policies cut the very USDA programs they depend on

The deeper irony: people who thought they were “owning the libs” are now watching their own jobs, hospitals, and safety nets get dismantled

1. Why are nearly half on food stamps? They should be sitting pretty on the coal jobs he got back.

Promises made. Promises kept?

2. Poor people in Appalachia and their woke scams

Good thing they decided to give their money to a convicted felon. Woke indeed.

3. MAGA strategy - vote against own interests

4. It almost makes one want to cry - and I do, for the children of the idiots, for the elderly parents of the idiots, and

for the future of Appalachia because of these idiots.
