... The US president added to his litany of complaints that wind turbines off the Scottish coast kill birds, make whales crazy and are not biodegradable ...

During a press conference with Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, he said: "I say to Europe, we will not allow a windmill to be built in the United States. They're killing us. They're killing the beauty of our scenery, our valleys, our beautiful plains."

On the third day of his visit to Scotland, Trump said that the wind turbines had ruined the view from the 18th hole of his Ayrshire golf course. ...

@#3 ... Trump said that the wind turbines had ruined the view from the 18th hole of his Ayrshire golf course. ...

So, that seems to be Pres Trump's main concern in his diatribes regarding windmills?

That they ruin the view from his golf course?

I just watched the press conference.

Trump sounds like a junior high school student. He is not an intelligent man, but he is an emotional child.

How embarrassing

Trump has opinions on everything and knows practically nothing.

Isn't that the truth?!

Also true of the morons who believed he was a "successful businessman" on The Apprentice as he was near another bankruptcy.

He's as fake as those ridiculous "gold" props in his "office."

One has to wonder if the fossil fuel industry has Trump on a retainer or something. Human caused global warming is a clear and present danger, and windmills can help countering that coming disaster.

Not very "alpha" to be afraid of rainbows, M&Ms, Mr. Potato Head, or "windmills".

After all the movies I've watched, I never thought the real-life super-villain would be so fcking dumb.

The President seems to be having severe confusion about his own identity; His first name is definitely Don but is his last name actually Quixote? And is he delusionally tilting at windmills thinking they are giants?

he meant "killing us" as in finacially

I work with Wind Farms regularly, they do kill a lot of birds and bats. the estimate is about 1M migrant birds a year and climbing.

The subsidies we provide to the wind industry goes overseas because most of the Turbines are built overseas; Vestas is probably the biggest provider and they are a Danish company, Iberdrola is Scottish, etc...
