COAL
Below are only a subset of my statements on Coal. For the comprehensive list click here.
Kasich has helped decimate the coal and steel industries in Ohio. I will bring them back! #MakeAmericaGreatAgain

Obama’s war on coal is killing American jobs, making us more energy dependent on our enemies & creating a great business disadvantage.

Obama’s coal regulations will destroy the coal industry, put Americans out of work, raise electricity prices & lead to blackouts.

Windmills are a bigger safety hazard than either coal or oil http://t.co/YfYmnhU9 A 34% higher mortality rate than coal alone. Outrageous!

OIL
Below are only a subset of my statements on Oil. For the comprehensive list click here.
Oil would be $25 a barrel if our government would let us drill. Our country would be rich again–who needs OPEC.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2012
Obama administration is killing American industrial renaissance by stopping drilling and fracking. Terrible for economy.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 17, 2013
Keystone XL should be approved but more importantly we should be drilling & fracking our own resources. Would be an economic windfall.

“Yes, the BP oil spill was bad, but it was no reason to put tighter clamps on domestic drilling. That showed no (cont) http://t.co/pLipL6ya

FRACKING
Below are only a subset of my statements on Fracking. For the comprehensive list click here.
Fracking poses ZERO health risks http://t.co/bXsJ6MKZGH In fact, it increases our national security by making us energy independent.

Upstate New York is suffering with record unemployment. Fracking is the answer. Frack now and Frack fast!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 1, 2013
The oil reserve is a strageic asset for a time of war and an embargo. @BarackObama should open more land for drilling, not tap the reserve.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 28, 2012
With our weakened dollar, gas will continue to rise. Fracking is an answer to lowering energy costs.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 31, 2014
WIND POWER
Below are only a subset of my statements on Wind Power. For the comprehensive list click here.
Windmills are the greatest threat in the US to both bald and golden eagles. Media claims fictional ‘global warming’ is worse.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 9, 2014
Congrats to people of Scotland on the Judge’s ruling concerning bird killing, land destroying, environmentally disastrous windmills.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 4, 2013
Obama’s carbon tax plan will finance more windmills in America. More real estate depreciated, wildlife killed, incl. bald eagles

.@maddow Standing in front of wind turbines is sad. Rachel, windmills are terrible for the environment—
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 13, 2012
British PM Cameron is making a fool of himself by wasting billions of pounds on unwanted & environment destroying Scottish windmills.
