Meanwhile Trump is fighting solar power and pushing coal. These days the Chinese call him 特朗普, "Comrade Jianguo". Literally this means "Comrade Building the Nation". It's a joke about "Make America Great Again". It hints that Trump is a comrade building the greatness of China by holding back the US.

All those panels have to be replaced in 30 years, I wonder if that is priced into the cost/benefit calculation
