President-elect Donald J. Trump has already built a wall — not on the border with Mexico, but on the border of his exclusive golf course in northeastern Scotland, blocking the sea view of local residents who refused to sell their homes.
And then he sent them the bill.

Sorry about the ad, but this New York Times video says a lot.
That makes me sad. I was hoping that a lot of Trump’s campaign rhetoric was just for show. We’ll just have to see how it all turns out.

What can one say about such behaviour?
Fairly ruthless, I would say. But probably not that unusual for a lot of developers.
i’m like you monk. I thought surely he can’t be totally real.
a lot of this must surely be for the campaign ‘show’ he’s putting on.
I didn’t want to have to find him so despicable. i didn’t vote for him.
but since he won I’ve been trying to find something redeemable about him.
now.
we.
know.
he is exactly what he is.
and he and his billions and his bullying ways are
despicable.
Apparently he cares about his image, so he might try to do some things differently when he’s president. We will just have to see.
agree with Rummuser…oddball guy for sure.
Hugely successful, but behaving not that differently from other developers, I’m guessing.
I’ve tried twice to get the video to load and it just won’t do it.
I’ll come back later.
😉
The information is also in the article that I linked to. But the video is short if it works. And it explains that the woman in the couple showed Donald Trump Jr. the view they had, the reason they loved the place so. Which is why the Trumps planted trees to block that view.
Everything he did involving that golf course was in character. We will all see the truth in time. As he says, he never loses. Well, one should never say never. Thanks, Jean.
We will just have to see.
Donald Trump Jr and his brother are heartless.
I’ve seen photos of them standing over their “kills” in Africa.
Let’s hope that they all are better at pretending to care now that he’s won.
🙁
