It's like listening to a black market snake dealer. You never know what absurdity will come out of his mouth in trying to sell you his garbage.
Listening to Commander-in-Cheat Trump driveling nonsense in Europe, no surprise that the world is laughing at the buffoon Americans have elected to represent them. Time and again, Americans, especially those from the backward southern slavery secessionist states, never cease to prove the accuracy of the label attached to them: Dumb and Ugly.
Just as listening to Zionists explain why they are committing genocide in Palestine, one isn't suprised that the Big Zombie in the deserts of Arabia (a.k.a. El, Yahweh) back in the Bronze Age kept punishing the self-declared " His People". I continue to be surprised that modern people continue to believe the biblical crap of the torah-old testament and deem it as a historical and moral reference, written by stinking bearded goat nomads as they wandered from waterhole to shithole, better than the other Arabian garbage also written in the same desert. Both "Scriptures" continue to be the basis for which millions of people continue be killed and die.
Make sure to read the second part below, in which a young immigrant student from India has solved a major aerodynamicity problem that will improve wind turbine performances. I wonder if any of Trump's MAGA morons would even begin to understand basic calculus, let alone solve major mathematical questions.
Iguess Trump will be sending ICE to detain Divya, jail her under atrocious conditions for a few weeks, then deport her back to India via the prison in El Salvador. He, and his MAGA imbeciles, cannot countenance the success of immigrants without whom the US would indeed be a shithole country.

'Total Mental Collapse': Trump Ripped After 'Insane' New Ramble In Europe
President Donald Trump spent part of his weekend in Scotland reviving his old grievances against wind power, even claiming at one point that it was “killing” Americans.
During a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Trump abruptly detoured from immigration to wind turbines.
“And the other thing I say to Europe: We will not allow a windmill to be built in the United States,” Trump said. “They’re killing us.”
He added:
“They’re killing the beauty of our scenery, our valleys, our beautiful plains ― and I’m not talking about airplanes. I’m talking about beautiful plains, beautiful areas in the United States, and you look up and you see windmills all over the place. It’s a horrible thing. It’s the most expensive form of energy. It’s no good. They’re made in China, almost all of them.”
He complained that wind turbines “rust and rot in eight years” and then can’t be “buried” because they will harm the soil.
“The whole thing is a con job,” he said. “It’s very expensive. And in all fairness, Germany tried it and wind doesn’t work.”
Much of what the president said was wildly inaccurate: Germany gets more than a quarter of its energy from wind, turbines last about 30 years (not eight), according to the U.S Department of Energy, it’s not the most expensive form of energy, and they’re not “almost all” made in China.
Trump, who has frequently attacked renewable energy, has a special hatred of wind power that likely began some two decades ago, when an offshore wind farm was proposed near the land that would become his golf resort in Scotland.
He sued to block it, lost and has complained about wind and other forms of renewable energy since.
He mentioned that on Sunday as well.
“Today I’m playing the best course I think in the world, Turnberry ― even though I own it ― it’s probably the best course in the world, right?” he said. “And I look over the horizon and I see nine windmills. ... I said, ‘Isn’t that a shame? What a shame.’”
Trump has previously taken his anti-wind stance to absurd extremes, such as in 2019, when he falsely claimed wind turbines cause cancer.
“The wind, the wind, it sounds so wonderful,” he said last year. “The wind, the wind, the wind is, the wind is bullshit, I’ll tell you.”
================================================
Meanwhile, an Indian immigrant to the US, a Penn State engineering student by the name of Divya Tyagi, has cracked a 100-year-old aerodynamic puzzle, offering a refined approach that could transform wind turbine design.Divya Tyagi is an undergraduate at the Schreyer Honors College. She has developed a solution that addresses gaps in a 1935 model by British aerodynamicist Hermann Glauert, providing engineers with a more robust tool for renewable energy innovation.
“I created an addendum to Glauert’s problem, which determines the optimal aerodynamic performance of a wind turbine by solving for the ideal flow conditions,” Tyagi said, per a Penn State news release.
Her thesis, published in Wind Energy Science, earned her the Anthony E. Wolk Award for the best aerospace engineering project at Penn State. Professor Sven Schmitz, her adviser and co-author, highlighted the breakthrough’s scope.
“Glauert’s original work focused only on the power coefficient. But turbines also have to survive physical loads, like wind pressure pushing against the blades,” he said, per The Brighter Side. “Tyagi’s method accounts for these forces and gives us a clearer picture of total aerodynamic performance.”
The simplicity of Tyagi’s approach, using calculus of variations to optimize complex interactions, could benefit both classrooms and industry. “The real impact will be on the next generation of wind turbines using the new knowledge that has been unveiled,” Schmitz added, according to Penn State. “As for Divya’s elegant solution, I think it will find its way into classrooms across the country and around the world.”
Tyagi noted the practical payoff: “Improving the power coefficient of a large wind turbine by just 1% has significant impacts on the energy production of a turbine. … A 1% improvement in power coefficient could notably increase a turbine’s energy output, potentially powering an entire neighborhood.”
Her work also enhances turbine durability, potentially reducing costs with lighter, longer-lasting designs.
Now pursuing a master’s degree, Tyagi is tackling airflow around helicopter rotors for the U.S. Navy, using computational fluid dynamics to improve flight safety. Reflecting on her undergraduate effort, she said, “I would spend about 10 to 15 hours a week between the problem, writing the thesis, and on research. It took a long time because it was so math-intensive. But I feel really proud now, seeing all the work I’ve done.”
Schmitz, who had challenged four students with the problem over decades, credited Tyagi’s persistence. “There had to be an easier way to do it. That’s when Divya came in. She was the fourth student I challenged with looking at it, and she was the only one who took it on. Her work is truly impressive.”
Her contribution could reshape wind energy as the industry seeks more efficient and resilient turbines.
