Trump visited his golf facilities in Scotland and Ireland on Monday.
Trump, who has family connections in Lewis, an island off the northern edge of Scotland, owns two golf clubs in Scotland—one north of Aberdeen and the Turnberry resort south of Glasgow—and one in Ireland, Doonbeg.
“It’s great to be home,” Trump told reporters at Aberdeen airport. “My mother’s house.”
Trump, who announced his 2024 presidential campaign in November, said he was visiting Scotland and Ireland on Sunday to “see and inspect” his properties.
“Will be seeing many amazing friends and cutting a ribbon for a new and SPECTACULAR Second Course in Aberdeen. “Exciting,” the 76-year-old commented on Truth Social.
The trip comes weeks after Trump was charged 34 felony charges in New York for allegedly paying $130,000 to an adult film actor during his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump denied every charge.
February accounts indicated the two Scottish golf facilities lost 4.4 million pounds ($5.5 million) in 2021.
