Sorry About All This Scotland

One recent poll found 71% of people in Scotland have an unfavorable opinion of Trump.

So why is Trump visiting Scotland? After all, it's costing the locals $ Millions to provide security, this is on top of whatever the US is spending on security, on top of the $10M the US is spending on the trip, just so Trump gets to promote his new Golf Club.

The Trump Golf club will charge the US for the cost of housing the Trump security detail and entourage.

Trump initially claimed that the trip will be to discuss trade. A couple of problems with his statement:

1. The trade agreement between the US and UK has already and concluded.

2. The trade "meeting" is the last day, and it's more of a pat on the bank for the agreement that was concluded in May.

Some protesters managed to install a sign under the main club's entrance sign, that looks like it's part of the official sign, except it says something like 'twi resort with the Epstein island'...

MAGA.

While Trump is deeply unpopular in Scotland (and a lot of other places) He does have some support among the Turnbury locals for bringing jobs to the area and seeing to it a few works projects (good for the resort of course) got done.. There is also a well to do group who also dont like those wind farms. So they support him in that..😷

@specman You are wrong on just about every point there. He wasnt self made at all. In fact he has self destructed several times along the way and taken other peoples money with him,leaving a trail of unpaid debts. To the point American banks refused to deal with him and he borrowed from rtussia and still has not paid them back. This is the most profitable time of his life. Either gtetting the government to pay his properties to use them, or using the muscle of the US with his tyrant friends to illicit bribes..😷

@specman

He did not receive his billions by inheritance.

By chance, did you fall off the turnip truck?
