It seems that The Donald wants to be seen as the sole rescuer of the North East economy in Scotland.
He's opposing a new offshore windfarm development which would be seen from his golf course, and therefore the jobs which would be created by it.
He obviously doesn't want any of his golfers to think of Scotland as anything other than a windswept romantic backwater which allowed Trump to build a shrine to himself. Keep that nasty 21st Century away, please, this is Brigadoon!
Meanwhile, over in America, Trump is being sued by 33 investors for fraud and racketeering after a development in Panama turned out to be less than was promised.
You can read the story here, but basically the Trump organisation withdrew the offer of financing after the investors had put in part of the money, the apartments were smaller than promised, a beach club was moved and a casino never built.
How much will the development at Menie look like the original plans, I wonder?
