…part of Trump’s love of fossil fuels – and his accompanying hostility to climate change mitigation, green initiatives, and nature conservation – might be less transactional than libidinal. Because to him, part of the appeal of climate-destroying, future-inhibiting, polluting energy industries is not merely that their executives are writing him checks. It’s that he sees these industries, and these forms of energy consumption, as more manly.


i think it just comes down to him being a petty vindictive little shit over not getting his way back with the offshore wind project in scotland adjacent to property he acquired (after the project was already known and in development) for a golf course.
If I owned land in the area next to his golf course I would be so tempted to rent it out to a group of travellers for £1 a night. The closer and more visible to the golf course the better.
Yes yes, place your caravans all along the borderline by trumps golf course. When he visits make sure you teach him what proper hate speech sounds like.
