It’s worth noting that the things Trump says aren’t just random nonsense; they’re part of a larger disinformation campaign run by the fossil fuels industry.
Since when does this dude give a shit about whales?
Since he saw one on that test he aced.
I desperately wish that somebody would ask Trump in an interview just the stupid question:
“Mr Trump, can you actually name a single species of whale that exists?”
I really don’t think he could. I think it would ruffle his feathers though, especially if you prefaced the question by stating most kids know at least 2 whales or something of the like. Set the bar super low, get him defensive about a silly dumb thing and then laugh at him when he can’t even clear it.
“I’ve seen many whales before. They don’t like windmills. I see them fly away as soon as they see a windmill. They say I’m the best at watching whales fly, did you know that?”

We’re taking about a guy who thinks a magnet gets destroyed if you pour water on it. There are a few things I’m pretty confident he knows - the toppings that come on a Big Mac, for instance - but it’s not a big list.
There’s no way he knows what the special sauce actually is.
I don’t either, but I veritably never go to McDonald’s, and never buy their burgers if I do.
Whales? No. But he does care about being

Gotta get ambergris somewhere
Ever since saying something which is contrary to the evidence about whales became a way to annoy people who care about them.
“…many of his criticisms are untrue”
Is ‘many’ a synonym for ‘all’ now?
Thanks for stepping up to the plate there, NYT. Where were you eight years ago?
Too busy posting ghost-written opinion pieces on quiet quitting. Or is that the WSJ? I forget. They are all the same now.
That’s RIGHT! WINDMILLS, NOT Oil Spills, drive Whales CRAZY!
Or ridiculously powerful military and commercial sonar and pingers.
Even if it were true, I reckon the whales would rather stay away from wind farms than have the entire planet go to shit.
Like these people care about the whales.
What’s actually driving whales crazy is international shipping.
You misunderstood him. With “Whales” he did not mean Cetaceae, he meant fat donors.
Well… if you classify trump as a whale… then yes they are driving the whale crazy.
So are Maga dorks now pro Whales? They gonna protect the whales with new laws? It is such a flimsy argument that goes not further and reveals how stupidly they lie without substance.
Why make an effort lying well when your voters are just so fucking stupid?
No, they’re just anti-everything else.
If by “driving whales crazy” he means “creating habitat for small fishes that make up a lot of their diet” then, yes, they’re crazy for wind farms.
Can we just get a single article, maybe weekly, listing the stuff Trump lied about it made up? It’s exhausting getting the constant stream of articles about each individual lie.
No, because if they waited a whole week to print them all at once, there’d be no room in the paper for the rest of that day’s news.
To be fair, 3 lies are examined in this article, not just one.
In another time in place, this might be funny.
I suppose I should be satisfied, but he can churn out three lies in a sentence, so it just doesn’t feel like progress.
Well that is capitalism brought to news. New daily articles gets more clicks, and ads, than an comprehensive list. That’s just the golden rule. Doesn’t matter if a thing is needed or wanted, it will still be made if there is profit to be made as well.
Lying liar lies again.
Ftfy
If it’s not clear, he just tends to spout whatever pops into his head.
Na, trump wouldn’t just lie /s
