Imagine if someone pissed and moaned about high line poles or fences or tall buildings destroying the view (which they actually do.) Theyā€™d be laughed out of the country.

As they say in Minnesotaā€¦OK then. So does Trump hold to his word and stop development of the golf course? Iā€™ll bet he keeps right on going with it.

That is Trump. There he is for all to see. A unique motor mouth always stuck in reverse. If heā€™s going to run his mouth he should at least get something for it. In this case he lost the people of GB and Scotland and the wind farm is a go. Thatā€™s Trump. Fucking up a relationship with an age old and solid ally. Fucking up a major deal. Thatā€™s what a Trump POTUS will do.

You canā€™t bully them and Trump is not big enough there to assume the role of bully. Heā€™s everything the British and Scots despise in an American. Crude, boorish and vulgar. If the man could get control of himself heā€™d see he needs to keep his personality out of any dealings with the British people.

And they are the easiest to please. Wait until he tries this shit on France or Germany. The shit will really hit the wind turbine then.

How to slap a bully, in a terribly nice way.

Letā€™s hope this is a beginning of a trend for Trump.

I doubt the British ever considered him a bully. To most a bully is a person with more power or strength than you and uses it in a abusive way to force you into submission. Trump does not have that power in Great Britain. Damn sure not in Scotland. Their objection to him comes from his vulgar foreign ways. He was never in a position to dictate but due to his crude insular ways thought he was. The British were never fooled. It was always up to them and they made the call.

Trump will now stop the wind out of spite.

Wind farms are actually pretty. Given the sea view from Aberdeen is one of a cold choppy North Sea I think it will be an improvement. Lots of wind there and when you go order the fish.

Becauseā€¦MuriKKKaā€¦

Ohā€¦Wait!!

Thereā€™s a wind farm about 50 miles from here in the Flint Hills and it actually is pretty. Before it was built the locals claimed itā€™d kill birds, itā€™d be sooooo loud they wouldnā€™t be able to sleep, etc, none of which are true. Most people driving through donā€™t even notice it even though itā€™s just a few miles from the highway.

Well, Iā€™ll give you that wind farms are far less an eyesore than are coal, natural gas, or nuclear power plants, but pretty is a stretch. I agree with you about the fish though.

Maybe" majestic" would be a more accurate word?
