Coal is a matter of national security for this country. Should something happen ( like WW III) a country wants to be able to rely on its natural assets for energy production, not ones that would cripple us should our current suppliers take side against us. It is not minimally needed nor antiquated. It is a valuable asset to this nation should it be needed.
I'm guessing your dad/mom, who are also brother/sister, don't have much grey matter in the dna?

Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

EIA’s AEO2017 projects the United States to be a net energy exporter in most cases

I'm curious.... you wear shoes, right? Where are they manufactured? What about pants? Wear those? Where are they from? Shirts, jacket, underwear, socks, work-out gear? Seems to me if you're wearing clothing and shoes from foreign countries you should sit down and shuddup about buying energy-related products from the same sources.

coal??
anyways it's a straightforward decision..allow cheaper panels ( and don't forget the washing machines covered too)
which is good for consumers,but at the same time cripple our manufacturing..
I'm not a fan of tariffs..at all..
I think this is rank protectionism, and Trump is saving an industry. but at a cost.
For me it comes down to :
was there Chinese/Korean dumping or not? no dumping means no tariffs and vice versa
Solar panels don't have squat to do with "the nation's security" -- unless you realize that being free of the fluctuations in oil prices and the mercy of groups like OPEC is a good thing.
RWNJs just don't care for green energy; the stupider among them think that it's some sort of creeping socialist STD or something. Knowing the IQ level of his base, Trump knows he's fine with upping tariffs on something they see negatively. Betcha if he puts tariffs on big screen TVs and smart phones, they won't be so pleased with him.
