President Trump while meeting this weekend for trade talks with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen roundly criticized wind energy including saying he won’t allow massive windmills, or wind turnbines, to be built in the United States.
On Sunday, Trump called the wind industry a “con job.”
“The other thing I say to Europe, we will not allow a windmill to be built in the United States,” he said. “They’re killing us. They’re killing the beauty of our scenery, our valleys, our beautiful plains. It’s the most expensive form of energy. It’s no good. They’re made in China, almost all of them.
“When they start to rust and rot in eight years, you can’t really turn them off, you can’t bury them, they won’t let you bury the propellers – you know, the props – because they’re a certain type of fiber that doesn’t go well with the land, that’s what they say, the environmentalists say you can’t bury them.”
