Of course, he was wrong to do that. I guess he didn’t want to point out that the Scottish government beat him in court and he owes them money for the legal bills. Will his business affect US foreign policy. This is so corrupt. Sad!
This tweet says everything you need to know about Donald Trump’s huge conflicts of interest https://t.co/EwFSkT4F1l

This is Trump’s most explicit commingling of personal interests and public office to date.

This is the tone from the top that leads his appointees to violate ethics rules.
This is shameless, corrupt and repugnant presidential profiteering.
This is an invitation to graft. https://t.co/3Gce7RGEYW
Is Trump really using the authority conferred on him by his position as president to advertise patronage of his private business as being in the national interest?

1) The two Trump golf courses in Scotland have lost something like $200 million under Trump management. The losses are covered by loans from the Trump Organization. But where is that money coming from? Trump Co doesn't have anything like sufficient income https://t.co/EJHAnsvbHu

This morning, @realDonaldTrump tweeted about his Scottish golf course. It's a beautiful place that's brought him a lot of trouble: 5 yrs of losses, $70M in sunk cash.

Now a court has ordered that Trump pay the Scottish Govt.'s legal fees, after they beat him in court. https://t.co/756dt4SNQR
Here's a reverse-emoluments case that the Founding Fathers didn't plan for…what happens when @realDonaldTrump owes a large debt *to* a foreign government? In Scotland, it's happening. https://t.co/WqS91m4ou0

In Scotland, @realDonaldTrump fought the Scottish govt over a windfarm that would alter the view from his golf course. He lost. Now, a court says he's also got to pay his opponents' legal fees. https://t.co/o7Ad4Qmbpp

Think about this tweet. How could the personal property of the President further relations between two countries? His statement is meaningless unless he wants foreign governments to know the key to a good relationship with America is to further its President’s personal interests. https://t.co/3Gce7RGEYW

No. No, it doesn't. No one believes that. Not even you. They spit at the very utterance of your name in Scotland. https://t.co/d4tUKqPCEC

I have been married to my Scottish wife for 15 years now. I can confirm that the Scots hate Trump even more than they hate the English, and we have fought historic wars. I am English.

It’s a sign of how far we’ve fallen that this tweet alone isn’t seen as grounds for impeachment https://t.co/xOQgPkoVYI
