ALTERNATIVE ENERGY/ENVIRONMENT/GREEN NEW DEAL: “Because under the Green New Deal, they don’t like clean, beautiful natural gas. They don’t like anything. They don’t know what they like. They sort of like wind, even though it kills all the birds.

You want to see a bird cemetery? Go under a windmill sometime. You’ll see the saddest — you got every type of bird. You know, in California, you go to jail for five years if you kill a bald eagle. If you go under a windmill, you see them all over the place. Not a good situation. But that’s what they were counting on: wind. And when the wind doesn’t blow, you don’t watch television that night.”
