The President has said that “it is very good to be in Scotland” and has praised the leaders of both governments.

Several hundred protesters have gathered in both Aberdeen and Edinburgh to protest against the journey.

In 2018, many people indicate, referring to an informal slogan by the late comedian Jenny Godle.

Questions have already been raised about the scale and safety implications of the journey with police representatives, increasing concerns about the costs and impact on employees.

Many roads in the area have been closed, while police and military personnel are sweeping around the resort.

The journey of American presidents sitting to Scotland is rare.

Queen Elizabeth hosted Dwite de Eisenhwar in 1957 at Balmoral, Aberdeenshire.

George W. Bush traveled to Gleniagles in Partharshire for the G8 summit in 2005 and Joe Biden attended a climate conference in Glasgow in 2021.

The only other serving President who visited the century is Trump himself in 2018, when he was met by the protesters, including reducing a paraglider over a turnberry, dissolving the air exclusion area around the resort.

He in 2023, two-and-a-half years later, when he lost to Biden.

Trump will have a UK’s official visit to the UK in September when she and the first female Melania Trump will be hosted by King Charles at Windsar Castle, Berkshire.

This is the second state trip that has been tolerated – American presidents of the second -functioning are not traditionally offered to the state’s visits and instead have been invited with the emperor for tea or lunch, usually in Windsor Castle.
