Does anyone know why Trump hates wind power so much? Why does he continue to support and subsidize coal so heavily?

Supposedly this stems from a petty lawsuit he filed to stop a wind project being built off the coast of one of his golf courses in the UK [1]. His solid scientific argument against them was "they are ugly." He lost that case and is quite bitter about it. For sure, he will go down in history as the bestest president ever, yuge success in all things he does, and liberator of the hormuz.
