Do you have any information on the degree to which wind power is being used in the central states/farm country where he got so much voting support. I suspect there might be some push back from part of his base.

We all have realized that clean air and clean water are real benefits to all of us.

But, a world where two ducks crapping on my lawn turn it into protected wetlands is insane.

We have wind farms where I live and my county voted 62% for Trump. Wind turbines are not popular here. Not one promise has been kept and formerly public roads (mostly used by hunters) have been gated and locked as a result and our power bills went up, not down. Those government subsidies come directly out of our pockets every time we pay the light bill, not just in our annual taxes.

Oh, and they are ugly day and night. Stupid blinking red lights totally wreck the night sky horizon.

Trump has already said he will have a hiring freeze and shrink the federal workforce through attrition which is entirely legal.

Workers that don’t cooperate can find themselves transferred, their job reclassified, etc.

Hell, all he really has to do is prosecute the morons responsible for the Gold King mine spill and the rest of them will get strange new respect.
