See why many people in Scotland hate Trump. Instead of furthering his goals by making nice with his neighbors, Trump chose to agitate, intimidate and harass.
Youtube video link:
Trump purchased 1,800 acres of land in Aberdeenshire, Scotland around 2005, and developed the property himself. Trump promised to invest anywhere from $1 billion to $2 billion and create 6,000 to 7,000 jobs as part of a golf and tourism mecca. Only about 93 jobs have been created. It remains a shadow of the project Trump originally said he would deliver. Before the course was even completed, Trump jumped into a series of pointless brawls with the locals. Instead of making nice with his new neighbors, he chose to harass, intimidate and insult.
