Dead? Only if you are a progressive trying to kill it. It had a good recovery last year, and if left alone will recover quite nicely.

In 2018, U.S. coal exports were the highest in five years

While U.S. coal consumption has generally declined since its 2008 peak, EIA expects that U.S. coal exports reached 116 million short tons (MMst) in 2018, the highest level in five years, based on foreign trade data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau. Exports of coal from the United States have increased since 2016 as international prices have made it more economic for U.S. producers to sell coal overseas.

The left doesn’t use facts, they use lies. They have lost touch with reality.
 
Trump resurrected??

Newsflash...more coal plants and coal mines closed in Trump's first two years than in all of the 8 years of the Obama Admin
 
He said the jobs weren't coming back and he's right. Automation killed coal jobs. The domestic market killed coal jobs.

You might as well lament the lose of whaling jobs in Nantucket.
