Mexican flag raised near Trump’s Scottish golf course

LONDON – An opponent of Donald Trump has raised the Mexican flag near a Trump golf course ahead of his visit to Scotland this week.

David Milne told Scottish TV he was flying the Mexican flag to show “support and solidarity with the Mexican people and anyone else who has been intimidated by Trump.”

His Aberdeenshire home overlooks Trump’s luxury golf course.

Trump is scheduled to relaunch the Turnberry course and hotel Friday after extensive refurbishment.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee had said that if he becomes president he plans to build a wall along the border separating the United States and Mexico. He has used insulting language to describe Mexicans.
