Trump has a vision for mining minerals?

GOP duo reshapes Montana politics to match Trump’s vision

WTF are these nuts taking about? Protectionism so they get a free pass on digging holes? Some bizarre thinking here.

Wiki says:

Montana is a relative hub of beer microbrewing, ranking third in the nation in number of craft breweries per capita in 2011.[222]Significant industries exist for lumber and mineral extraction; the state's resources include gold, coal, silver, talc, and vermiculite. Ecotaxes on resource extraction are numerous. A 1974 state severance tax on coal (which varied from 20 to 30%) was upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States in Commonwealth Edison Co. v. Montana, 453 U.S. 609 (1981).[223]

Tourism is also important to the economy, with more than ten million visitors a year to Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, the Missouri River headwaters, the site of the Battle of Little Bighorn, and three of the five entrances to Yellowstone National Park

How does any Trump vision fit into this picture?  These nuts have no sense.
