Joining Trump in his calls to save the plant were Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell and the state’s governor, Matt Bevin, both Republicans. Both cited concerns for the surrounding community, including mines who count the facility as one of their primary buyers. The TVA said that 40 percent of the plant’s 130 employees are eligible for retirement and others will be offered other positions.

The unit that will be closed had a capacity of 1,150 megawatts. Two smaller units at the plant closed in 2017.

Complicating the Paradise plant closing is that its primary supplier of coal is a company owned by Robert Murray, a major Republican donor and Trump supporter. Murray Energy gave the Trump-supporting super-PAC America First Action $1 million in the last election cycle and Murray has personally lobbied the president to keep plants open, particularly in the areas where his company sells coal. Murray told Politico that while he had responded to questions from members of Congress about the potential devastating effects of the plant closing, he did not have anything to do with Trump’s tweet.

Trump campaigned on the promise of ending the “war on coal,” at one point donning a miner’s helmet at a rally in West Virginia. And he appointed Andrew Wheeler, a former coal lobbyist who has worked for Murray, as his acting Environmental Protection Agency administrator last summer. But experts are saying there is little the White House can do to influence an energy sector increasingly reliant on renewables and an abundance of cheaper natural gas.

Adapting to the moves of market demand is capitalism at its most basic

I knew you would fail at this one, too. SO predictable.

Try again, ignorant bitch. Post a link to the skyrocketing number of coal jobs. That should be pretty simple, shouldn’t it?

I understand WHY you can’t.
