Trump falsely claims Green New Deal calls for 'tiny little windows' that you can't see out of

Trump falsely claims Green New Deal calls for 'tiny little windows'

President Trump bashed the Green New Deal during a phone interview Thursday evening, incorrectly telling Fox News host Sean Hannity that it would require builders to use "tiny little windows."

The climate change-fighting resolution sponsored by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) has been a favored line of attack for Republicans, who often point to policy proposals not actually included in the legislation.


"I mean they literally want to take buildings down and rebuild them with tiny little windows, OK, little windows so you can't see out, you can't see the light," Trump said.

"Our country will be a Ninth World country, not a Third World country" if the plan is implemented, he added.

The president also said the deal was conceived of "by not smart people - AOC plus three."

Windows are never mentioned in the 14-page Green New Deal, which is more of a vision for fighting climate change and spurring economic growth than a specific prescription.

You only get one square of toilet paper to wipe with. You have to push your car every Friday because they won’t let you burn the gas. Obviously cows are banned. Anyone caught with a cow has to spend 5 years in prison and plant 500 trees.

losers have office windows facing in, and nobody have no (zero) windows. The support staffs, in the group nobody, aren't affected because, as nobody's, they don't have windows. The losers with inward facing windows aren't affected because no exterior light reaches them. That leaves the winners of the world to suffer, and only the winners, to be deprived of their right to natural light. To pay for the costs of green energy saving policies, while the losers and the nobody's don't have a dog in the fight.

Yup, using green technology in a democratic plot to punish the creme de la creme by locking them in their office cages whose only windows are barely smaller than the bars covering them. Yes Trump, the plans for your new office are being drafted now, and yes, you are being punished.
