Inside Trump's Turnberry store where Maga hats cost £55
Donald Trump will cap his five-day visit to Scotland by officially opening his new golf course later. The US president will cut the ribbon on a second 18-hole course at his resort in Menie, Aberdeenshire, before flying back on Air Force One. Trump has used the excursion to meet with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at another of his golf courses, Turnberry, and escape from the still-raging scandal back home surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files. But it has been a visit mostly built around golf — and walking the new course before it officially begins selling rounds to the public on August 13, adding to a lengthy list of ways Trump has used the White House to promote his brand. It will be the third owned by the Trump Organisation in Scotland. Trump bought Turnberry in 2014 and owns another course near Aberdeen that opened in 2012. Visitors will have ample opportunity to bag themselves a souvenir, as photos of the recently opened Trump merchandise store at Turnberry show. While there is no sign of the controversial Trump 2028 caps in stock, the president's classic Make America Great Again version is on sale for £55. His Trump 45/47 caps commemorating his two non-consecutive presidencies is selling for £50. Those looking for something more formal might prefer a copy of Letters to Trump, which at £99 is billed as an 'intimate look into the private collection of correspondence between President Donald J. Trump and some of the biggest names in recent history'. Metal tumblers are listed at £35 apiece, with bottle openers at £35, coffee mugs at £20, and fridge magnets and playing cards at £15. The cheapest item on the list – and the one thing Trump probably has no use for given the rumours of his less-than scrupulous match play – is a £10 ball marker. Trump golfed on Saturday as protesters took to the streets, and again on Sunday. He invited Sir Keir aboard Air Force One so the PM could get a private tour of his Aberdeen property before Tuesday's ceremonial opening. More Trending 'Even if you play badly, it's still good,' Trump said of golfing on his course over the weekend. 'If you had a bad day on the golf course, it's OK. It's better than other days.' Trump even found time at Turnberry to praise its renovated ballroom, which he said he'd paid lavishly to upgrade — even suggesting that he might install one like it at the White House. 'I could take this one, drop it right down there,' Trump joked. 'And it would be beautiful.'

Donald Trump hits out at taxes and says North Sea oil is 'treasure chest'
Donald Trump has hit out at taxes on North Sea oil, saying the resource is a 'treasure chest for the United Kingdom'. The US president is in the north east of Scotland as he prepares to open a new golf course at his resort in Menie. Posting on his Truth Social network, on Tuesday, the President said: 'North Sea Oil is a treasure chest for the United Kingdom. The taxes are so high, however, that it makes no sense. They have essentially told drillers and oil companies that, 'we don't want you'. 'Incentivize the drillers, fast. A vast fortune to be made for the UK, and far lower energy costs for the people!' After meeting with the Prime Minister on Monday, Trump is to cut the ribbon on the 18-hole course at Trump International Golf Links on the Menie Estate on Tuesday before returning to Washington on Air Force One.

Trump tells Starmer his North Sea oil taxes 'make no sense' in new lecture for PM after president uses visit to hand out advice on beating Farage
Donald Trump lashed out at Keir Starmer over taxes on North Sea oil and gas today in his latest lecture to the Prime Minister about how he runs Britain. The day after pouring praise over Sir Keir as they met face-to-face in Scotland the president took to social media to complain about levies on fossil fuels, saying they are 'so high ... it makes no sense'. It came as the president, who is on a 'working holiday' in Britain, prepares to open a new golf course at his club near Aberdeen, the centre of the UK oil industry. In an impromptu doorstep spray with the PM at a course on the other side of Scotland, Trump gently praised Aberdeen as the oil capital of Europe and repeated his long opposition to wind turbines, calling them 'ugly monsters'. But posting on his Truth Social network this morning the president was more blunt, repeating his frequent past criticism of the taxes. 'North Sea Oil is a treasure chest for the United Kingdom,' he said. 'The taxes are so high, however, that it makes no sense. They have essentially told drillers and oil companies that, ''we don't want you''. 'Incentivize the drillers, fast. A vast fortune to be made for the UK, and far lower energy costs for the people!' But posting on his Truth Social network this morning the president was more blunt. Mr Trump will cut the ribbon on a second 18-hole course at his resort in Menie, Aberdeenshire before he flies back to the US on Air Force One. The president has played several rounds of golf during his Scottish trip, teeing off at his other resort in Turnberry, Ayrshire, on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. As they met at Turnberry for bilateral talks on trade and the situation in Gaza, Mr Trump and Sir Keir took part in what proved to be a lengthy press conference, with the president discussing a number of topics. The Republican Party leader spoke of his 'great love' for Scotland and said he wanted to see the nation 'thrive'. The PM stood up for green energy, saying: 'We believe in a mix, and obviously oil and gas will be with us for a very long time, and that'll be part of the mix, but also wind, solar, increasingly nuclear (power),' he said. Trump also used the wide-ranging press conference to advise his 'not too liberal' friend to cut taxes and immigration if he wanted to beat Nigel Farage at the next election. Without any awkwardness about playing one mate off against the other the president used the hour-long televised bromantic encounter on the plane to tell the PM to cut taxes and stop 'murderers and drug dealers' from coming to Britain. While Sir Keir sat beside him, barely speaking and with an impassive look on his face, he was full of praise for the Prime Minister and the way he was running the country, despite their ideological differences, saying Sir Keir was was 'liberal ..but not too liberal' in his approach. Mr Trump added: 'I think the one that's toughest and most competent on immigration is going to win the election, but then you add… low taxes, and you add the economy. '(Sir Keir) did a great thing with the economy, because a lot of money is going to come in because of the deal that was made. But I think that, I think that immigration is now bigger than ever before.' The president had earlier told Sir Keir Britain and the rest of Europe it must stop illegal immigration to avoid 'ruin' as the two leaders met in Scotland today.
