Donald Trump was in Scotland to play golf, meet with UK leaders, and ramble about his absolute hatred of windmills for five days.

It literally was one of the first things he said on arrival:

“Stop the windmills. You’re ruining your countries. I really mean it. It’s so sad.”

It came up in his meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen: “They’re killing the beauty of our scenery, our valleys, our beautiful plains. I’m not talking about airplanes, I’m talking about beautiful PLAINS.”

And yep, again, when he met with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer:

Soooo, Trump left Scotland earlier this week, and the Scottish Government announced something that is going to make him very, very angry.

Yes, they are getting a shit ton of windmills, and Sky reported that the wind farm “could generate enough electricity each year to power every household in Scotland around twice over.”
