Save money? I want to see the cost expenditure and break even date. If it like most systems it will become obsolete or non functional before it( I mean we ) pays for itself. O’nuthing is a multi millionaire if he thinks this is so great he should spend his money, not ours.

I’m guessing that in 1978 that huge panel would have produced just enough juice to recharge my cell phone.

Juxatpose those actions of a generation ago with “The White House Residence will be Solar-Powered crapola”.... further understand this same sh!t flew his dog up to Martha’s Vineyard where he’s vacationing in a 7+million dollar estate in a US Marine Corps V-22 Osprey.

Further understand this sh!t rides around in a gas-guzzling multi-tonned hyper-armored car to protect his worthless keester.... further understand his high-assed wife cannot even ride on the same Air Force plane with him, but has to take her own separate plane every vacation....on and on and on and on. Solar my ass.

Jimmy Carter also put solar panels on the White House and they were taken down a few years later...they didn’t work

“Makes me feel better already..........”

I’m sure the Secret Service snipers they have on the roof will appreciate the added shade and reduced firing lane choices.

Yep I remember when he demanded White House lights be turned off to save electricity.

Probably not enough juice there to keep their dog’s fridge going.

He doesn't need a fridge. He has everything flown in fresh.
