Trump’s Wind Power Grudge Is Costing Americans $4 A Day

Author: TJ Walker May 14, 2026 Duration: 12:39

Donald Trump’s war on wind energy may look like another culture war, but it is costing American families real money. On today’s Filtered with TJ Walker, TJ breaks down Thomas Edsall’s New York Times reporting on how Trump’s long-running grudge against offshore wind power, dating back to his golf course dispute in Scotland, has shaped U.S. energy policy in 2026. From canceled clean energy projects to higher household energy costs, lost jobs, propped-up coal plants, and America falling behind China in clean energy manufacturing, this episode looks at how one man’s personal grievance became a national economic burden. Trump’s energy policy is not just about fossil fuels versus renewables. It is about power, resentment, money, and the cost ordinary Americans are now paying every single day.
