Trump's Offshore Wind Suspension

• 🚀 Donald Trump has suspended all large offshore wind farms under construction, a move that threatens thousands of jobs and billions in investment.
• 📉 This suspension could stall nearly six gigawatts of new electricity production, leading to continued increases in energy bills.
• ⚠️ The decision is attributed to Trump's personal dislike of how wind farms look, highlighting vanity over economic and environmental concerns.

Economic and Social Impacts
