2016 US ELECTION

Trump heads to Scotland as ‘Brexit’ vote result looms

– ‘Go it alone’ –

In December Trump blasted Europe’s “weak leaders.” Three months later, after terror attacks in Brussels, he warned that Europe had “very, very severe” problems with containing extremism.

In May Britain’s Cameron blasted Trump’s position on Muslims as “stupid, divisive and wrong.”

Trump shot back: “It looks like we’re not going to have a very good relationship.”

On Wednesday he stirred the pot more, proclaiming Europe’s migration crisis a “mess” and that while he has not studied the Brexit issue closely, he feels Britain should walk away.

“When you look at the things that are going on over there, my inclination would be go it alone and go back to where you came from,” he told Fox News. “That’s just my feeling.”

Later Wednesday Trump launched a blistering assault on his Democratic rival Clinton, branding her a “world-class liar” and castigating her “disgraceful” record as secretary of state and her policies on trade, foreign policy and immigration.

On Saturday Trump will visit his International Golf Links course in the coastal village of Balmedie, Scotland.

A neighbour of the property, David Milne, is flying a Mexican flag in protest of the real estate magnate’s visit.

He says Trump fought with him over the boundaries of their properties, then erected a fence and sent Milne the bill.

Trump said earlier in the month that he would also visit Ireland, but the nation is not on his itinerary.

“We are still in the process of finalizing the schedule and hope to visit Ireland as well,” campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks said. She declined to provide a date.
