Someone desperately needs to build the largest solar farm on earth, nakedly as a direct affront to China, and call it the "The Grand Trump Sun Energy Complex", with a large statue of him standing at the center of the massive radial field of panels.
The dude would have no choice but to approve it and provide funding for it.
You’re joking but that would probably actually work
With what panels? The vast majority are made in China.
The US manufactures more solar panels now than it ever has before. It just looks small because Chinese solar manufacturing has grown enormously.
First Solar makes panels in the US and is the single largest supplier for utility scale solar farms in the US. If someone wanted to build the world's largest solar farm in the US as a stunt, domestic First Solar capacity alone could do it:

The current single largest solar farm is 15.6 gigawatts of nameplate capacity. It would take a bit more than a year of First Solar domestic manufacturing to surpass that.
So are MAGA hats.
