Former US president Donald Trump has arrived in Aberdeen ahead of a visit to his nearby golf course.
Mr Trump said on Truth Social – the social media platform he owns – that he is going to the Menie Estate near the city to open a “spectacular” second course.
Mr Trump left the plane and walked to a waiting car, greeting waiting media, but not stopping to take questions.Despite the visit, Mr Trump, who is running for the White House again in 2024 and is seen by many as the presumptive Republican nominee, said his campaign is “on my mind”, stressing that a victory for him would make America “greater than ever before”.“Will be leaving for Scotland & Ireland soon in order to see and inspect my great properties there,” he wrote.
“Will be meeting with many wonderful friends, and cutting a ribbon for a new and spectacular second course in Aberdeen. The tycoon’s trip to Scotland comes as he faces legal trouble in his native New York over his business practices.
