To understand former President Donald Trump's obsession with windmills is to grasp how a narcissist's mind works. They can hold a grudge like no other. Trump's hatred for windmills has lasted for years. Years. The one-term President has been laser-focused on windmills (except he didn't do anything about them while in office) ever since he learned of a plan to build 11 wind turbines off the Scottish coast that would obstruct his view.
And he will never let it go. Never.
"Let's assume you're a big believer in this. They send big fumes. And so you add it all up, and it's terrible. You can't get rid of the blades," he insisted. "They only last ten years. The energy is the most expensive energy you can do."
"They kill all our birds. If you want to see a bird cemetery, go under a windmill some time, you'll see birds like you never saw! It's a very, if you love birds, you'll start to weep," he continued. "But it's it's just the craziest thing. They ruin our planes and fields. They're killing our whales. You know, the whales are coming in. I think we had one whale come in in 50 years. This year, we had like 12."
"It's it's a terrible thing they're doing to our country, and they're doing it under the auspices and basis of we have to maintain our clie..." Trump said. "So here's the problem. China is right now building 50 coal fired plants. Okay, Big plants, big, bigger than anything we have. 50 of them. They're building, on average, one a week. And now I understand the average is going to close in two weeks. We're getting rid of all of our stuff for wind."
Wind? Here comes the wind. Oh, it's not powerful enough to fire up our factories. Solar," he said as if anyone was listening. "You ever see a solar array? They take up areas of the desert. They might as well take the whole damn desert, you know."
"And I like the concept of solar, but it's not powerful. Like what? We need to fire up our factories," he said. "We can't do it. Let's put it this way. It's not. It's not working. You can have a solar, you can have a little. You could even have some wind if you want it."
"But wind is 42 times more expensive than natural gas," he added. "Think of it, 42. And we have more, I call it, what do I call it, liquid gold? Liquid gold. Beautiful, beautiful liquid gold."
Not one person in the audience gave a shit. But since he brought up windmills, we'd like to know about the binder of information related to Russian election interference that was last seen in Donald J. Trump's White House.
