Other than “manufacturing them releases fumes”, I don’t see how any of these forms a coherent message.

He probably set a record for the pace of lies or misleading statements, but he had a coherent message: windmills not made in US, manufacturing them releases fumes, they kill birds, having them nearby decreases home values, etc

The message is “wind power bad”

Also, wind turbines (I assume that is what he meant, unless he has a problem with using wind to turn grain into flour) not being made here is a bunk argument anyway.
First off…General Electric.
Second off, the reason why there are so many manufactures in China is because China is investing and deploying wind at a crazy rate. The only thing Trump did with wind was break it.
They can really be manufactured just about anywhere, right? What’s happening is business (and jobs!) are being created to meet a demand. Not the other way around.
That kind of demand can only really come from the stroke of a pen. Particularly his (or rather, the presidents) pen (after passing house and Senate, of course).
You know what’s cool about domestic manufactured and implementation of wind energy? Energy independence.

Home values could use some lowering.
