Seems really hypocritical to crow about energy independence while at the same time shutting down energy projects, at least until you realize Trump hates windmills

It’s more that Trump solicited and took a billion dollar bribe from the fossil fuels industry

Him taking a bribe from a competing industry is basically a given at this point. The windmill stuff though, he probably would have done for a discount.
