OP

(92,325 posts)1. I don't trust Zinke
He sounded good but he is a Trump nom so I also don't trust him. Is he saying only what Bernie wants to hear? I have no experience with this guy.

(92,325 posts)3. He doubled talked through his answers. On climate change he said the bullshit republican line,
"it is still undecided"
It was Sanders who made it very clear to him that was bullshit.
His position on National Parks, "drill baby drill". While he didn't use that term explicitly, that is what he meant
While the VA does have issues, he painted an incorrect picture of it, which again, Bernie told him that was bullshit
Zinke talked out of both sides of his mouth, and he DOES support mining and oil development on public and tribal lands,
There is a reason Zinke has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry
No, I do NOT trust him.
