News: 78 year old felon/rapist with dementia confuses 'windfall tax' with windmills and demands UK get rid of their windmills to open up the North Sea. The next president, folks... - ThreadSky

A windmill farm installation was built near his Scottish golf course and he’s been apoplectic ever since. I’m surprised he didn’t bring up windmills causing cancer.

I’m no Cheeto-man fan, but I don’t think he’s confusing “windfall” and “windmill.” He’s pissed the increased windfall tax on oil and gas companies will fund more windmills. He hates windmills and supports drilling, we all know that. (Forgive me if I’m wrong. It’s only 3 Jan & I’m sooo tired.)
