Yes, not Obama's entire time in office but under Trump more coal plants have been closed than Obama's entire first term.
More coal plants have closed under Trump than in Obama's last term - CNNPolitics
Do you think Trump should personally sign their unemployment checks and look them in the eye when he hands them out? Or are you suddenly going to lose interest?
You provided link to CNN, not data how many plants were closed during Barry or Trump.
You obviously didn't go through the entire link, did you?
No data in the CNN video, or in article. However, there is a link to the official EIA website that doesn't support your your or CNN claims.

Yes, that link is what I was referring to, glad you finally got there.
And yes, more coal fired power plants have been closed in Trump's first two years than Obama's entire first term.
Protip: the larger the column the more plant closures.
"entire first term"... LOL
Riiiiight, cherry picking... It takes time for the regulations to take effect, and you can see from the chart what happens when those Barry's regulations finally kicked in. Just as it will take some time for deregulation to take effect.
That was my point from the very beginning. We don't have Trump's second half of his first term nor a second term to compare to Obama's.
Now, you made a claim that it's regulations that have closed plants in the last 2 years, prove it. Also, why hasn't Trump stopped it?
