President Donald Trump gave a rare tip of the cap to the media as he oversaw the grand opening of a golf course in Aberdeen, the celebratory culmination of a golf-themed diplomatic tour of his properties in Scotland.

During his Scotland trip, President Donald Trump opened a new golf course, met with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and addressed Israel's conflict.

That was when Donald Trump's motorcade swept through Ayrshire and I saw the President's famous armoured car adorned with the flags of the United States and the saltire of Scotland.
