Trump's golf course stirs unease in mom's birthplace
The Citizen|November 04, 2024
As Donald Trump pursues a second stint in the White House, about 4,828km in Scotland, he is building a new golf course that renews scrutiny of his vexed relationship with his mother's birth country.
Trump's golf course stirs unease in mom's birthplace

For some, the 18-hole links on the northeast Aberdeenshire coast will symbolise the Republican candidate's adoration for the late Mary Anne MacLeod Trump's ancestral home and will be a driver of economic investment.

Others say it will be a display of ostentation that will bring little benefit to a local area that already boasts numerous highly-ranked golf courses, including an existing Trump one.

The course is being constructed at the Trump International Golf Links resort in Balmedie, just north of Aberdeen, where Trump opened a course in 2012 that sparked controversy over possible environmental damage.
