>… The US was going to build a 6.2-GW solar + storage facility in Nevada which would've been the largest in the US, but apparently He Who Must Not Be Named hates solar power just as much as he hates wind power because about two weeks ago, for reasons not made clear, he canceled the project…..

Who in the US?  And why does POTUS have any say in that?

That ballroom costs the taxpayer nothing.  Why would you be opposed to that?  

 

John, you imply that the cancelled solar project was taxpayer funded (otherwise POTUS would have no influence on it.)  If so, I oppose it too and agree it should be cancelled, not because I have anything against solar but because taxpayers shouldn’t be funding power projects.  The federal government is an unreliable investment partner.  Extrapolation to its bankruptcy is easy.
