While Trump devoted the bulk of his address to foreign policy and immigration issues, he eventually turned to focus on energy. Trump called renewables “a joke” and said they don’t work and are too expensive – and inadequate to fire up the plants modern nations need.
Trump scolded the UN assemblage for not recognizing that China has been playing Western nations as fools by selling Chinese-made wind and solar while building coal and natural gas plants to power the bulk of their industrial sector. “They use coal, they use gas, they use almost anything, but they … sure as hell like selling the windmills.”
Many countries in Europe are on the brink of destruction because of the green energy agenda, Trump said. Germany had gone far down the green energy path, shuttering coal and nuclear power plants while buying oil from Russia. But Germany’s new leadership has retreated toward fossil fuels and nuclear and opened a lot of different plants, energy plants, energy-producing plants, and they’re doing well, he added.
The Germans have finally realized that going all green was a disaster – that “all green is all bankrupt. That’s what it represents,” he said. By contrast, the United Kingdom once was a great oil producer – thanks to North Sea oil. But today, oil production is so highly taxed that no developer, no oil company can go there, even though there is a tremendous amount of known oil and even more that has yet to be found.
Trump was not done.
