    Y’know, for somebody who really wanted to reboot the fossil fuel industry, he sure as hell succeeded more than anyone else in killing it off faster than anyone thought possible. Nobody thought you could kill off fossil fuel so fast, it couldn’t be done they said, but he, king trump, did it!

    All hail king trump!

      It won’t collapse; you still need to build out enough infrastructure to replace fossil fuels.

      What will happen is that there is going to be a massive economic shock as any fossil fuel related industry sees costs spike. For instance, I expect several low cost airlines to go out of business.

      Any energy infrastructure being built will likely be non-fossil fuel.
