    I might have empathized with the Indian protesters had they raised this issue in the past before pipelines crossed their "land", but they're likely just being paid by the left to protest. Similarly, I would have probably criticized this move from Trump since he didn't go through congress, but the precedent was set by Obama.

    Wonder how much stock this jackoff has in the Keystone Pipeline.

    Oil goes into pipeline > oil gets refined into gasoline > gasoline goes into automobile and makes the engine run.


    Isn't this a good thing especially if we can produce our own oil and totally bypass the sand people?

    No. Because we aren't bypassing anyone. It's going to China, last I read.

    Thank goodness. I would hate to think of the government putting the rights and concerns of individuals and communities over the desires of big business.

    Isn't it Canadian oil that is to be processed sold as a global commodity?

    Things happen fast when someone actually wants them to. Another campaign promise kept by DJT.

    The Keystone is a tax dodge for TransCanadian pipeline company and highly dependent on NAFTA.

    Personally, am glad for this.

    Now all we need to do is get rid of NAFTA so my country isn't stuck with that proportionality clause. Then we can wean ourselves off of foreign oil

    The legacy media and old guard Republicans still don't have a clue what's hit them. If I were Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell I'd resign asap before being totally discredited by Trump.

    More like 1200 new jobs. TAPLINE only created 1400 news jobs and that was in 1950.

    Where were all the fact checkers when people were saying the Obama economy was the best in history?

    Transporting oil by pipeline is safer and more efficient than transporting it by tanker truck.

    I never saw anyone make that claim.. I just know that if you need 28,000 people build a pipeline in the US in 2017, you should get out of the pipeline business.

    The Keystone isn't crossing the damned Gobi desert.

    No you didn't. Trump won. How much money will go in his pockets when the Pipeline is done?

    I dont know , how much? Do you have a source, thats in any way credible that shows he would get some? Because he doesn't really need it, so it looks like your own hatred is causing you to just make things up in order to validate and justify your hatred.

    Come on, expand that train of thought! Has nothing to do with his portfolio and everything to do with his AUTHORITY hahahahah :) Not so fun when some other President is shoving that pen up the other party's keister now is it? All I can say is after eight years of taking it myself all I can suggest is Prep H liberally and a Hemi do-nut!

    Source? Are you kidding? It's a brave new world. Facts are what is said.....period. I don't need facts, I believe that it's true.
    Tax returns would help.....wouldn't they?

    Yeah, because this is "America First"!!! What a crock.

    No one can take you seriously. Your cynicism and revilement of anything Trump is a pretext to any critical thinking on your part and renders it unreliable.
