Trump Spending $10 Million Of Taxpayer Money To Promote His Scotland Golf Course: Huffington Post

American taxpayers will shell out at least $10 million over the next several days so President Donald Trump can participate in a marketing photo opportunity at his golf resort in Aberdeen, Scotland — the profits from which will flow directly into his own pocket.

Trump is planning to visit his golf resorts in both Aberdeen on the east coast and Turnberry on the west. His appearance in Aberdeen coincides with the grand opening of a second 18-hole course there, which Trump has been personally publicizing in recent years.

The trip is unrelated to a planned state visit to the United Kingdom in September, making it by far the most expensive golf vacation to date in either of his terms. It will also increase the total golf tab in his second term to at least $52 million. He spent $152 million in taxpayer money playing golf at his own resorts in his first term.

Donald Trump’s first wife, Ivana Trump was buried alone 3 years ago on one of his golf course properties, hidden behind an embankment. Cemeteries in New Jersey are exempt from property, income, and sales taxes.

The grave is now overgrown, and neglected

While Donald Trump and her children, Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka and Eric, have stayed at Bedminster during summers, none of them are documented to have visited the cemetery, even though it's at most 20 meters from the first hole tee-off.

Trump: "Family is everything. You have to take care of your family, respect your parents, and always remember where you came from."

And "I think children should always honor their parents and appreciate the sacrifices they made. It’s the foundation of a strong family and a strong country."

This is satire, and it has rough language.

Trump will almost certainly hand Maxwell a presidential pardon imo:

CBS: "It's something I haven't thought about," he told reporters before leaving for Scotland. "I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I have not thought about."

Maxwell is currently being interviewed by Justice Dept Assistant Attorney General Todd Blanch who defended Trump in the Stormy Daniels business record falsification case.

The "I'm allowed to do it," , like why would you say that unless you had thought about it and already prepping to justify. 
That's strange language to use. 

The obvious is, she has been convicted by a jury in a trial of heinous crimes, so it not something I would be thinking of doing.

 

"I'm allowed to do it,"

 

It kinda reeks of something you have discussed with Bondi, Kash etc and already concluded there is nothing stopping him. Well bar optics which Trump has always disagreed with his advisers, 'look I can shoot someone and', so who cares about optics.

Just hit the campaign trail with more 'They are eating the pets' and MAGA will flock back.

 

You can smell the rotting fish from here. 

 

I can do anything I want, I have immunity and if you lie for me you can get immunity too.

The NY Times - A Golfing Trump Is Greeted by Protesters in Scotland

 

26 July 2025

 


As President Trump golfed Saturday at his course in Turnberry, Scotland, hundreds of protesters took to the streets to denounce his presence in Britain, opposing the administration’s policies on immigration, the war in Gaza and myriad other issues. ...

 

The best course anywhere in the world is Turnberry,” Mr. Trump boasted to reporters after touching down, before saying he had a twofold message to deliver to Europe’s leaders: Halt mass migration and turn away from wind power.

 

This immigration is killing Europe,” Mr. Trump said. “And the other thing, stop the windmills. Killing the beauty of your countries.”

 

 

Profound words from The Don.  😜

https://www.1news.co.nz/2025/07/27/in-epstein-furor-trump-struggles-to-shake-issue-his-allies-once-stoked/

 

Ty Cobb, the lawyer who served as the White House's point person, said the president “never felt exposed” because “he thought he had a legitimate gripe.” The situation is different this time now that the Justice Department has been stocked with loyalists.

 

“The people that he has to get mad at are basically his people as opposed to his inquisitors and adversaries,” Cobb said.

 

In fact, Trump's own officials are the most responsible for bringing the Epstein case back to the forefront.

 

FBI Director Kash Patel and his deputy, Dan Bongino, regularly stoked conspiracy theories about Epstein before assuming their current jobs, floating the idea the government had covered up incriminating and compelling information that needed to be brought to light.

 

Wow, even with "only the best people" the orange buffoon still can't shake off the ghosts of Epstein lingering around him!

kingdragonfly: White House Bashes ‘South Park’ After Trump Parody: ‘This Show Hasn’t Been Relevant for Over 20 Years’ and Can’t ‘Derail Trump’s Hot Streak’: Variety

Donald Trump‘s White House has responded to Wednesday night’s explosive “South Park” Season 27 premiere, which portrayed the president begging for sex from Satan and featured a [NSFW] Deepfake-assisted PSA where Trump goes fully nude
...
While “South Park” has never shied away from controversy, the Season 27 premiere is notable, as it aired soon after Trey Parker and Matt Stone signed a new five-year USD $1.5 billion deal with Paramount that includes 50 new episodes plus all seasons of the show becoming available to stream on Paramount+ for the first time.
...

 

 

...and something that had dropped off the radar a little, but is still most definitely there...let's check in on how the orange buffoon's much-beloved tariffs are doing:

The Washington Post -
Trump fumes as Epstein scandal dominates headlines

 

28 July 2025

 


President Donald Trump is increasingly frustrated with how his administration’s handling of the furor around the Jeffrey Epstein files has dominated the news and overshadowed his agenda ...

 

His exasperation follows weeks of missteps and no clear strategy among top officials who underestimated the outrage, especially from the president’s base, and hoped the country would forget about the unreleased Epstein files and move on, according to nearly a dozen people close to the situation ...

 

The White House and Justice Department’s response to the crisis has been driven by no clear strategy other than asking the country to forget it and move on ...

 

 

Keep on fuming, Donald.  😡
