If it's not Scottish criticism of Trump, it's crap! [1]

There is a long history of Scottish hatred of Donald Trump, with good reason.
Another protester in 2018.
Scottish protests this time were in Aberdeen and Edinburgh.
Some people stated the obvious, that Trump coming to Scotland cost the Scots money. At the Aberdeen rally, protester Nicola Seal said, "We shouldn't be hosting him. It's costing vast amounts of taxpayers' money, sucking enormous amounts of police resource." Local communities in the U.S. say the same thing about Trump visits. They never get paid back by the U.S. government.
Back in March, Turnberry was graffitied by Gaza protesters. This was well done in the dark.
A resort building on the course and entranceways were spray painted.

This time, it was a meticulously made sign that was added to the Aberdeen course sign.
Twinned with Epstein Island sign.
Well done, mate!
It brought out the best in Scottish newspapers.
Donald Trump could only whine about windmills, as he does on a regular basis, because of his course in Menia has a view of a windfarm. That, and because of his hatred of renewable energy and belief that climate change does not exist.
He is such a pain. He always thinks he's right. In Aberdeen.
In Edinburgh.
Turnberry itself was a ghost town, due to its remoteness and lack of amenities.
A round of golf at Turnberry can cost £1,000, currently $1,319.00. Guess who likes to play there? Prince Andrew. Donald Trump will not be able to run away from the Epstein files controversy.

Prince Andrew had to retire from public duties due to his association with Epstein.
One time, a protester figured out how to get close enough to Trump speaking at Turnberry to dump dozens of Nazi golf balls at his feet 8 years ago.
Secret Service scrambling to collect the embarrassing balls.
Trump has no shame or care for others. He's quite happy for others to pay to accommodate his trips, in this case to play golf and open still another new course. The pressure builds at home, and the trip to Scotland is not even a temporary reprieve. He should be hounded wherever he goes.
