Solar getting cheaper and being installed more will have nothing to do with marches or public pressure.

2016 was the feared last year of the solar tax credits so a lot of solar was installed last year for that reason (note the tax credits were extended for 5 years).

Solar power will continue to drop in price like a rock and grow at an exponential rate for years to come

Yup. But China will probably be leading the world in terms of renewable energy if this is how the US wants to act. Clean energy and renewable resources are the silicon valley industry of the 21st century. So while the US wants to roll back coal regulations and clean water initiatives, you will see China subsidize solar energy to African and Asian nations, see Chinese firms be ridiculously well funded by their government allowing them to compete or even dominate US/European firms.
