That's because no president has ever been stupid enough to mess with the oil industry.

That doesn't mean it won't happen if a president really hell bent on destroying it.

This is a delusional person who thinks people buys solar only and only because there is a credit.

The same person probably believe people buys houses only because they get mortgage interest deduction.

Is solar the ONLY renewable source of energy? Think back to 1850; what was the most common fuel used to heat homes and cook? Wood. The first lightbulb wasn't even invented until 1880.

Trees are a renewable.

Why do you think that either Trump or his "followers" want to do away with clean energy and renewables?

Specific evidence please.

China,India and other polluting countries get a free get out of jail card while we get the burden again after great strides where taken toward clean coal technology.Make them do what we have already done and clean up their act and responsibility to the environment because the U.S. is far ahead of them.
Remember China gets coal from suffering and slave labor that supports the sadistic reign of Kim Jung Un over the North Korean people demand China to buy our coal,technology instead.
Now that is power to the people!
