So we're basically back to year one Ford who tore down wind turbines at taxpayer expense because they annoyed him.

Honesty I have no idea how all his ideas are 100% in the complete opposite direction.

Don’t worry, we’re restarting all those projects as the biggest investment in green energy ever!

We could have had those things years ago for very little investment, but that doesn’t sound good to voters.
