Trump takes time out to open Scottish golf course

Former US President Donald Trump has traveled to Scotland to officially open his Turnberry golf resort. This visit is unusual as sitting US presidents typically refrain from actively promoting their personal business interests during their time in office. The Turnberry golf course is one of Trump's properties in Scotland, which he acquired in 2014. This trip to Scotland marks a departure from the norm, as US presidents typically avoid using their position to advance their private commercial ventures. The opening of the golf course is seen as a departure from the traditional separation between the public office and private business interests that US presidents have typically maintained. This visit has drawn attention to the potential conflicts of interest that can arise when a sitting president has significant private business holdings.
