Trump again made a promise he can't keep: bring back coal jobs. He's using jobs as an excuse to roll back environmental protections, but coal has not fallen out of favor because of regulations. It just costs too much. Most utilities are moving away from coal to LNG, not because the latter is cleaner and emits less CO2 (which it does), but because LNG is cheaper and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. It's an economic decision by utilities. But goodbye and good riddance to coal.
