To be honest.... I don't think it matters. Coal is dying a quick death anyway, and it was already before the so called "war on coal". The biggest killer of coal is of course not renewables (yet), but natural gas, however that is but a stop-gap before renewables and nuclear (fission and eventually fusion, which is the end-game of electricity generation) can catch up

Indeed going to paste this here:

Instead of opening the mines an empty promise basically if we are talking about creating jobs it would have been better if he did something else.
