Why doesn’t the western coast of the US get hurricanes or tropical storms? And how do hurricanes on the eastern coast have the energy to move so far inland/north once they make landfall?

The southern west coast of the US does get an occasional hurricane – last year we got *t h i s* close to having one land before it became a tropical depression.
Hawaii received hurricanes every year or two, or less. Mexicos west coast sees a lot of them.
With global warming we can all expect to have more hurricane events along more US coast lines.
