Honestly, they should leave those fossil fuel tariffs in place indefinitely. Don’t threaten me with a cleaner environment.

i wish that the article spent some time explaining what the impacts are since china gets so much of coal and lng internally.
good call. reuters is providing a bit of that:
China's total LNG imports have been averaging around 6.5 million tons a month recently, meaning the U.S. is supplying in a range between 4% and 12% of the total.
Official customs data showed China's total coal imports averaged 45.2 million tons per month in 2024, making the U.S. little more than a fringe supplier.
Canada should sell to China what we currently sell to the US
Good news for Qatar
