Trump’s Golf Course: Fore-get Scotland’s Diplomacy
US President Donald Trump touched down in Scotland just in time for his family's newest golf course to open on August 13. While tees and greens steal the spotlight, Trump will also 'meet with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen,' proving diplomacy nowadays involves more birdies than policies. As he swings between politics and putting, one wonders if the better deal is a par or a pardon.

Trump visits Scotland, simultaneously launching a golf course and reminding us all that no matter how serious politics get, it’s really just business with awkward handshakes and windy curses.
Only Trump could hijack a diplomatic meeting to promote his golf course. Next summit: negotiating peace through putting contests!
This visit's vibe: like if Lord of the Rings had an episode sponsored by a family-owned bunker spray-tanned talk show.
