Donny Trump took on an old foe — windmills. What is with Donny and windmills?

He wants them gone.

Did Donny have a traumatic childhood encounter with a windmill on a putt-putt course?

Is that what’s going on?

He equated windmills aka turbines to “dropping garbage in a field.” As opposed to oil that pollutes our rivers and streams. Deepwater Horizon anyone?

According to Donny, windmills also drive “whales crazy.” Is that based on scientific analysis? Or is it Donny BS? We will go with the BS.

There is no current evidence linking wind farms to whale deaths. At least that’s what scientists, marine researchers, and environmental organizations say.

They suggest other causes. Caught in fishing gear and collisions with vessels for instance.

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA) also states

U.S. offshore wind development is not linked to whale deaths.
NO Scientific evidence that offshore wind cause wind deaths.

Right wing politics are destroying democracy in America. If we want freedom, we must think and vote blue.
