Trump Takes His Windmill Obsession to the Next Level: ‘They Kill Everything’
“They’re making windmills all over the place. They kill our land and kill our birds. They kill everything,” the disgraced ex-president groused to Hannity on Wednesday.

Ostensibly showing up on pal Sean Hannity’s Fox News show Wednesday night to discuss the recent summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump instead spent much of his time grumbling about the thing he hates most: windmills!
Over the years, Trump has obsessively railed against wind turbines, accusing them of causing cancer, killing birds, and being just plain ugly. That obsession hit the next level on Wednesday night. “They’re making windmills all over the place. They kill our land and kill our birds. They kill everything,” the disgraced ex-president groused.
He went on to claim that wind turbines were “not good” because, in his opinion, they only provide “intermittent energy” and that’s “not going to power our great factories.”
Did Trump find time in his Hannity interview to grumble about windmills killing "our birds"?
