We’re all very well aware that Donald Trump is in full deflection mode at the moment, as his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein remains firmly on the agenda with the media – and even with some of the Maga crowd.
Reporter: Was part of the rush to get this deal done to knock Jeffrey Epstein’s story out.

However, his recent multiple returns to the topic of what he refers to as windmills, but are actually wind turbines, are probably far more of a genuine pet peeve for the president, after he failed to win a legal challenge against an offshore wind farm near his Turnberry resort in Scotland – where he has been since Friday.
Trump lost a legal battle in Scotland because he didn’t like them being seen from his golf club.
THAT’S his beef with windmills.https://t.co/iWq00WFyKl— °jP (@jim_pennington) July 25, 2025
When asked by a reporter – presumably from GB News or some such thing – about immigration, he went off on a slight tangent about the evil of windmills. Again.
Trump in Scotland: I say two things to Europe. Stop the windmills. I really mean it. It’s so sad. You fly over and you see these windmills all over the place, ruining your beautiful fields and valleys and killing your birds

He wasn’t done.
Two minutes of Trump rambling about windmills and whales:
“Wind doesn’t work. It ruins the landscape, it kills the birds. They are noisy. Whales… it’s driving em’ crazy… They are environmentally unsound. It’s the worst form of energy.”
Trump is a global embarrassment. pic.twitter.com/Ccf6yUB4KU

The facepalm was visible from space. Here’s what people had to say about his obsession.

Trump’s opposition to wind energy is a selfish, shortsighted attack on progress that prioritizes his golf course views over the planet’s future.

Why isn’t this old fart in a nursing home where he can ramble on about windmills and whales all he wants. The staff will laugh at him, but at least the rest of us won’t have to listen to Donald Trump’s stupidity.
