This clown even claimed that China has no windmills. China has more wind and solar capacity than any other country in the world with twice as much capacity under construction than the rest of the world combined.

To be fair, considering he aggressively tries to not learn things, he wouldn't have known.
He doesn't need to learn things, he just knows them. Like how dumb has a B at the end....
Wait, do people without dementia call wind turbines wind mills? I'm not a native speaker
I'm a native speaker and quite likely to refer to them as windmills. Real windmills are basically museums now, everyone will know what you mean. Although the slightly coarsely-ground flour from the one near ours does make truly delicious bread.
as with everything, per capita is incredibly important… australia has twice the per capita renewable capacity as china… US is actually only about 100w/capita behind china (about 15%)
china just has a massive population, so you’d expect their government to necessarily build more power - which is to say nothing about their industrial capacity which, again, necessitates a larger total capacity
per capita or renewables mix is far more relevant than total capacity
none of that is a dig at china of course: they’re still doing better than most countries! but let’s not hold them up as a shining beacon when they’re just doing better than average. we can find better examples of success to copy
I wouldn't normally be pedantic, but because its him, I feel compelled to say, its wind turbine, not windmill, they do 2 different jobs.
Maybe he actually does mean windmill and really hates the Dutch.
I wouldn't put it past him tbf, he's quite a hateful person.
To be fair, only a small proportion of Dutch wind mills are actual mills. Most are wind-pumps.
Like Trump understands the difference.
I presumed this is what he meant, because who mixes them up? And, he's that kind of person, who would slate a nation for having history and culture.
everybody whose not an engineer will call them windmills at least on occasion. Which is fine. i'm sure somebody somewhere is grinding flour with the electricity they produce.
Why is this stupid pedophile still alive?
Thanks to Mitch, death is no longer a deterrent to stay in power; don't give him ideas.
Angry Netherlands sounds intensify
Wooden shoes beat furiously on cobblestone
Should use that for a moment like Bush Jr had 😀
Ga jezelf neuken. Tering klotzak.
Tijd om new york terug te nemen en trump tower te vervangen voor een windmolen
Weet je hoeveel bier je kan halen voor al da goud in die toren? Niks ginne windmolen bouwen, jonge!
He's still pissed off that a wind farm is visible from one of his sea-side golf resorts. I don't recall if it is one that went bankrupt or not.
I saw a shit load of wind turbines in Texas
One time I ate a hallucination paper or two at a concert. I noticed on the 2 hour drive back that all the windmills across the horizon had a blinky red light on top and all of those lights blinked at the same time. I hope anyone who doesn't appreciate the blinky red lights on top of windmills has a painful and drawn out death.
we gaan op ons klompen Nieuw-Amsterdam terugnemen als je niet oppast
Op klompen? Wa'n koekwous bende gij.
Poor. Rocinante. putting that ass on a horse is animal abuse!
Is that Netherlands?
Well hey America has some wind farms so a broken clock or whatever I don't even know anymore.
