Press conference today and trump said that he owns properties - wonderful properties - in STarmer's country
Turnbury
Aberdeen (???)
and a nice little golf course in Ireland (sorry forgotten the name)
County Clare to be more accurate
in other words - in the Republic or Ireland and not Northern Ireland
Yup. He owns the Menie Estate in Aberdeen which included beautiful grounds that he turned into a golf course (Trump international scotland) causing extensive environmental damage. He pretended to be investing $1bn, but invested far less. The Menie estate includes MacLeod House and Lodge which is now a 5 star hotel. The Menie resort has never turned a profit and loses about £1.5 million per year.
He also bought Turnberry Golf Course which included the ruins of Turnberry Castle and lighthouse (now a two bedroom holiday home). It actually turned a profit in 2024 for the first time.
He has also bought a third chunk of Aberdeen to make another golf course which has caused a lot of local objections from environmental campaigners. That one opens in 2025.
And of course he owns Doonbeg which is in Ireland, another country entirely. Trump clearly failed Geography. Guess what, Doonbeg only made a profit for the first time in 2020 - largely following Presidential visits and after encouraging other US officials to stay at his properties. The US Military spent $184,000 at Trump resorts.
