Not aware of Donald Trump’s huge problems with Scotland?

Just watched Real Sports on HBO cover this incredible story on how Donald Trump pissed off
the entire country of Scotland to such a point that the country might ban him from entering the country..

All over his bullying tactics he has used in trying to build a golf course.. There are a ton of stories out there about this story and I swear to God.. the Dems could really hurt his presidential bid if they concentrate on this on going situation...

I mean, this story really will stun the hard right White Trump Supporter into seeing what kind of scum bag the Donald is.. I mean Scotland the standard barer of Drinking, Fighting and manhood games demanding that Trump stays out of the Country.. What would his white contingency of tough angry white guys think about this adventure..

I suggest that Dems. stay very close to this story and use it to illustrate to Trump supporters what kind of Scumbag he really is.. I think this might be a game changer if only the media would cover it.

about what he did there and how he bought out some politicians and had the documentarian arrested and how he stole people's land etc. Totally worth watching, I'll look and see if I can find the link.


ETA: Here's the film right here...




NEVER FORGET THIS!!!

Show it to everyone who even has one positive thought about this POS.

Fox news knows this story will rally Trump support. Do you think the unmanly nude picture got him banned? How the Hell does a major U.S. Presidential candidate piss off most of a nation?

Most of the world seems to agree a Donald Trump presidency is a disturbing possibility that would inflict unthinkable damage

Many said they still cannot believe the nation that elected its first black president just eight years ago will now rush to embrace a man who has offended Mexicans, Muslims and others. The possibility that Trump might actually win fills great swaths of the planet with dread – with the apparent and notable exception of Vladimir Putin’s Russia – with concerns over everything from trade to the nuclear trigger.

“Surely he can’t win the nomination,” said a top official in one UN agency before a formal lunch hosted by Ban, only to be told by a colleague that the US political ground was shifting and, yes, Trump was very likely to be the Republican nominee. “Well he certainly won’t win the general election against Hillary [Clinton],” the top official responded decisively. He compared the situation to France over recent decades, where centrists of different stripes came together to block the far-right Front National from winning the presidency.

“My big concern is that he has said he will tear up the nuclear deal with Iran. That would be catastrophic,” said a senior diplomat in Vienna. “It was the biggest step forward in decades towards peace and stability in the Middle East and in counter-proliferation. The idea that he would just destroy all that, is simply terrifying. It is also deeply concerning in general that he is clearly not a multilateralist. He would be more single-minded in pursuing purely American interests.”

Reacting to Trump’s speech on how he planned to reform America’s foreign policy, Germany’s foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, said: “I can only hope that the election campaign in the USA does not ignore an appreciation of reality.”

Unfortunately the German foreign minister does not understand that the republican base has no "appreciation of reality". Science, history and facts are not their strong suit. It remains to be seen if American voters in general have a better "appreciation of reality" than do republican primary voters.
