This led to the greatest trolling of an individual ever when they deliberately stuck a windfarm directly off the coast of his new golf course. He's spent a couple of decades spending countless millions in losing a bunch of court cases, and of course, to this day, constantly moans to anyone who will list about "windmills".

As far as trolling goes, it's one of the greatest achievements in the history of mankind.

On par with publicly embarrassing someone's birtherism at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

That blowback though.

unfortunately this trolling has caused trump to try to halt all large offshore wind projects in the United States in federal land grants. it's terrible.

Yep absolutely this and not at all big oil money/interest.

Why not both?

What would be doubly ironic is if the gold course windmill farm was sponsored by big oil.

In theory (were we talking about any other man, in any other time) that's very strictly illegal with a whole area of law dedicated to it (fiduciary duty).
