Is he actually sabotaging us on purpose at this point?

Americans deserve an energy system built on common sense, not one dependent on costly subsidies
Costly subsides like giving them $1.2bn to cancel a project that will generate free energy?
It's a good thing the US doesn't heavily subsidize fossil fuels
Wind power is great bit it's not exactly free energy.
I want you to shoot yourself in the foot. How much?
The question is what gas companies does he own?
He's using government money to shut down the competition
This is same deal that was announced 3-6 months ago? Company is getting free money to break lease, in exchange for investing 75% of it with likelihood of making good ROI from that money. US would have more energy if project stayed. I'm sure some climate terrorist interests will find money for LNG under the couch cushions.
I would enjoy pointing and laughing at Americans, but sadly this provides a new minimum standard for climate change.
Instead I'll just have to point and laugh at Americans with reduced mirth.
You've fucked us all but I suspect you might be about to lose more than the rest of us.
I understand that most of you have done nothing to deserve this but all us bear the same our nation's shame.
I really think je wants to have global warming kill humanity before hè dies himself. It’s the only explanation
He really hates wind for a guy who makes so much of it.
To be clear, the wind projects are in the USA. If only stupid decisions of one government didn't impact the whole planet.
What a way to earn a billion bucks. "Don't do anything! I'll give you a billion bucks and change!" "Okie-doke!"
Well they had to be able to credibly threaten that they could build a windfarm, so that's probably worth a few hundred grand to a some amount of millions depending on where they got to in the process.
I wonder if they'd like to sell the land rights they'd have lined up to someone else who might like to not do a wind farm.
Its for US coast projects, not european ones. So this is just Trump shooting the future of the US in the foot again...
Europe should "start" more US wind projects. Then get paid more not to do it and build them in the north sea instead.
Went through some ports recently, it feels nice seeing all the wind turbine blades laying on the docks waiting to go.
