Trump has claimed to be an expert on “windmills.” (It’s worth noting that windmill is an outdated term that originally referred to centuries-old tech that used wind power to turn stones to grind up grain; the modern tech designed for producing electricity is a wind turbine.)

In a sweeping order, President Trump halted federal approvals for new wind farms, in a move that could affect projects on land and in the ocean.

President Donald Trump suspended new federal offshore wind leasing pending an environmental and economic review, saying wind mills are ugly, expensive and harm wildlife.
