And what are you going to replace them with? Solar and wind can only produce a fraction of the energy coal plants generate.

What did progressives use after they banned coal?

Candles.

Personally I don’t give a rats azz if Democrats and like minded people freeze to death.

The coal power plants would be plenty of electricity for normal American Citizens if the demo-ccp-rats disconnected from the grid and switched to "organic candles"

If the progs really meant all that baloney they throw at everyone else they would cut off their natural gas as well.

Cooking in the back yard would give it all that "smokey flavor."

After a few months of winter the northeast would become pleasantly quiet and almost crime free.

The normal American Citizens would enjoy greatly reduced utility bills as one third of the users would no longer need utilities.

Not having to deal with the loudmouth in-your-face prog one third, the US could get on with the business of building nuke power plants for the future and getting the borders under control.

After that, what to do with 50 million illegal aliens?

The terminally stupid west coasters will be a bit of a tough nut to crack but their weak spot may also be the holy grail... electricity.

You have to understand what “unabated” coal power means to get what this is all about.

Here’s a nice explainer on abated coal power generation:

It involves carbon capture where they inject the exhaust gases into the ground to sequester the CO2. It kinda sorta works but not really.

Foolish a-holes. Dooming us all into poverty. I despise these do-nothing tools.

The Left is getting almost frantic lately. Do you think they are afraid their Woke Communist Utopia is not a sure thing in 2024?

Biden’s handlers are trying to get every regulation and limitation on free enterprise into effect before the end of next year. If they win they can relax. We’ll be in the gulags.

You have a point. They could say “we buy up your agricultural land and your companies and influence your universities so why not let only China open coal plants in the US?”

If congress didn’t pass it then it is not legal. Trump can call it off in a heartbeat.

It’s interesting how he’s making treaty-like commitments without involving Congress.
