Critics derided Donald Trump’s latest claim as full of cracks.
On Thursday, the former president and current Republican candidate thanked people who attended his speech at the Israeli American Council National Summit in Washington as he rejected the claim that Democrats want to “close all the windows on buildings.”
We need all the defense we can get and a friend of mine, and a man who is actually a great environmentalist, he’s a really great one, and he wrote a book about Donald Trump, is a great environmentalist, which is actually true, but a lot of people don’t know that. But I am a common sense environmentalist. I like buildings to have windows. You know, they like to close all the windows. The building should be 90 stories high, but that doesn’t matter, but it should have no windows.
Meanwhile, the book Trump mentioned might be Edward Russo’s ‘Donald J Trump: An Environmental Hero’ The Guardian in 2020 said “seeks to refute a narrative – backed by robust evidence, including Trump’s decision to withdraw the US from the Paris climate accord, his attack on Obama-era environmental regulations and his complaints about excessive toilet flushing due to low water pressure – that the president doesn’t really care about the planet.”
Critics on social media collectively raised their eyebrows at Trump’s latest glassy complaint.
