Trump: "I know a lot about wind" (3-28-2019)

You are correct.

Those hippies over at Forbes show that coal is becoming less and less viable based on price.

Hard to get around economics.

It’s all behind him now.

Now trump thinks wind mills cause cancer lol

It’s already happening. 30 years ago what was the ratio between coal plants and natural gas plants in the United States. Now what is it today. And you will have your answer.

Just another day in this, our national embarrassment, known as the Trump presidency.

Nothing better than the president peddling fake science ■■■■■■■■■ I’m sure on some level he’s an anti-vaxxer dickbag. But his bootlickers will swallow this up too. Idiocracy was not supposed to be a documentary.

Oh I cannot wait for someone to Trumpsplain this! :joy:

It’s gonna be breezy out there today, folks.

Just a gentle reminder to start your chemo now before you go out.

Of course he is.

There really is one for everything… isn’t there.

I believe he is talking about his son but can’t admit it.

That’s what engineers are for. To solve problems and not say oh well.

I would like to join you in that frame of reference.

First you’d have to provide evidence that frame of reference reflects actual reality.

For instance in this thread we have shown that Trump did not reveal any knowledge of wind power generation while claiming that he in fact had a lot of knowledge of it. While making this claim, he stated an outright falsehood about wind power generation.

What frame of reference would you like to adopt in order to have a discussion about why Trump would have done this?

We can say the same about cars, can’t we? And Solar also…

Tell us about Hydro-electric power, Coal Plants, and Nuclear Plants on how they don’t take up land.

Because they cannot make an argument without deflecting to Former President Obama (Scourge of the CRC)

Isn’t this just a cultist echo of donnie’s complaint about windmills ruining the view at his Scottish Golf Course a few years back?

You might want to bone up on framing a discussion.

For instance.

The abortion battle.

DEMs frame this discussion as the right of a woman to choose. Conservatives frame this discussion as that of preventing the murder of an unborn child.

Which frame represents reality?

OMIGOD! Look at the land it’s taking up!!!

Let’s talk about this one first because there are actual facts to be discussed and not just philosophy, with which the abortion battle is rife (despite claims to the contrary, science offers us no definitive answers as to when life should be valued so as to call ending it murder…that is a philosophical question, not a scientific one).

Trump told an outright falsehood about wind power generation. There can be no doubt about this- it is objectively false both that Hillary Clinton wanted to convert 100% to wind power (she didn’t) and that TVs in homes powered by wind have to be shut off when the wind doesn’t blow (wind energy can be and is stored).

What frame of reference shall we adopt to discuss why he would have told these objective falsehoods?

I’ll let you pick and then discuss this under the framework of your choice.

Hell- I’ll even let you choose a framework where these were not falsehoods by Trump- so long as you can prove that.
