Trump Revives Beef With One Of His Most Bizarre Foes In Rambling 'Hannity' Call

Former President Donald Trump revived his years-long beef with windmills on Fox News, this time complaining that they are “ruining the atmosphere.”

It’s one of his go-to talking points during his rambling phone interviews with the network’s Sean Hannity, who hosted the former president Thursday for a similar affair.

“You look at what’s happening to these beautiful prairies and plains and these gorgeous areas of our country where they have these rusting hulks put up all over the place that are noisy, they’re killing the birds,” Trump complained.




Trump has long disliked wind turbines, ever since a protracted and unsuccessful legal battle to stop Scottish officials from building what he called a “really ugly wind farm” in view of his Aberdeen golf resort. He has since concocted a series of bizarre lies about wind turbines, including the claim that the noise they make causes cancer.

All those people who played at his Scottish golf course came down with cancer.

Just saw these not too long ago. Off I 65 in Indiana.




Natural gas is cleaner then wind? When you burn CH4 (gas) you get CO2

CH4 + 2 O2 ? CO2 + 2 H2O + energy

Hannity said the word "wall" while chatting with the former guy, and it wasn't in the context of the southern border. But like an over-prepped beauty queen contestant, just mentioning the word triggers something in the former guy's pea-brain, and he blarped out several sentences about how much wall he'd built, and that if he'd had just three more weeks he would've completed wall.

You can just imagine as the former guy blathered on that Hannity wrote on his papers DO NOT MENTION WALL for future reference.

A Name all the world hears with woe
And the wild winds of fortune will carry me onward
Oh whither so ever they blow

Whither so ever they blow
Onward to Glory I go!

One of the reasons when I hear that nasal voice I have to shut it off.

It has been a staple of his rallies all along. He brings it up every time.

But that's just self-love is it not? (the kind Trump likes)

Oh, he'll still attack windmills, but he'll have to come up with new reasons why (instead of the actual one - he lost the legal battle).
