That's cover.  May is in bad enough shape, she doesn't want Trump anywhere near her

While that may be true, I'd be surprised if Trump would give up all the pomp of a state visit to save her some blushes. I think he really doesn't want footage of thousands of protesters jeering him as he takes a carriage up the Mall.

Like everything else in this administration, they're taking credit for something completely out of it's control.

The mine, as are many of the others slated to open, will produce metallurgical coal, a special type of coal that is used in steelmaking. This is different from "steam" coal, which is used to generate electricity. "Met" coal makes up about 15 percent of worldwide coal production, according to the International Energy Agency.

The Acosta Deep Mine is one of a handful of metallurgical coal mines opening up around the country to take advantage of very high prices for metallurgical coal, says Art Sullivan, a mining consultant and former coal miner in Washington, Pa.

He says the uptick in met coal is related to events oversees that have little to do with U.S. policy or politics.

One of these factors is that Australia, the far and away leader in metallurgical coal, has experienced disruptions to its supply chain. There have been problems with rail transport of coal, and Cyclone Debbie further hurt the coal industry there, Sullivan says. Those disruptions, combined with greater-than-expected demand for steel in China — the world's leading steelmaker — caused prices of this special coal to soar to $300 per ton, triple the price of met coal from three years ago.

300 per ton? that doesn't seem like a whole lot of worth.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
