Is There Nowhere Safe?

Looking for bargains & clearances in the model railroad porn zone of the iNternet I encountered an actual obscenity:
Won't be purchascharging anything from this Con-Cor outfit.
Celebrating the first 100 days in office, we feel the revival of the
Coal Industry was one of President Trump’s most noteworthy achievements.

Not only did it put tens of thousands of coal miners back to work, but it also put thousands of railroad workers also back to work, as all the
major coal haulers, Union Pacific, BNSF, N&W and CSX all reported record car loadings of coal in recent weeks.

Also not a widely publicized fact is that almost 60% of all the coal mined in the USA is EXPORTED to countries such as China, India, Japan and South Korea. (Even Mexico buys some American coal for their power generating plants.)
Totally sic. Bullshit, too. And you can bet none of their no doubt crummy plastic cars are made in the U.S.A.

On the other hand, this crap is all from 2017 & '18. Maybe the market has dried up.
