Really?
Turnberry (golf course) - Wikipedia
Donald Trump purchased the hotel and golf courses from Leisurecorp in 2014 for $60 million,[14][15][16] and the resort was renamed Trump Turnberry.[17][18] Trump resigned his directorship of the companies which own Trump Turnberry in 2017, just before he was inaugurated as President of the United States, and passed control to his sons Eric and Donald.[19] The Trump Organization spent about two hundred million dollars on renovating the course.[14] Donald Trump remains the owner of Golf Recreation Scotland, which in turn owns SLC Turnberry.[
So.....Trump passed control to his sons......

Kind of slow today aren’t you?
Trump maintaining ownership means he still profits off of governments use of his properties

All of this babbling begs the question of just why the Pentagon has not turned over the requested documents. The Defense Department must come out and explain why this has not been done.
But he gave up his $400,000 presidential salary....

The US military may have spent millions to help prop up a Trump resort
The House Oversight Committee is investigating military spending at an airport near a Trump property in Ayer, Scotland, as well as visits to that property by service members, in the latest of a growing number of inquiries into government expenditures that seem to financially benefit President Donald Trump and his businesses.
The military has spent $11 million on fuel alone at the Prestwick Airport near Trump’s Turnberry resort since fall of 2017, Politico reported. And reporting by the Guardianfound the airport has provided discounted rooms and complimentary rounds of golf at the Trump resort for some US military members. The expenditures are unusual given buying fuel from Prestwick Airport costs the government (and, ultimately, taxpayers) more than refueling at military bases, such as the nearby Lakenheath Air Base in England.
And the stays at Trump resorts are equally as unusual and costly, as Politico’s Natasha Bertrand and Bryan Bender note in their account of the experiences of five Air National Guard troops who stayed the Turnberry resort this year while on a mission to Kuwait:
The spending captured the attention of the House Oversight Committee, and in June, it sent the Pentagon a letter demanding an explanation. The Department of Defense, however, has refused to turn over any documents to investigators.
Trump has been under scrutiny since the beginning of his presidency for refusing to divest his interests in his businesses. And as recently as last week, when it was reported Trump suggested Vice President Mike Pence stay at one of his hotels during a visit to Ireland, the president has been accused of using his office to enrich himself.

Got to love the quality reporting. May have. Just imagine the many other headlines under such great reporting. Trump may have spoken with aliens from Mars. Godzilla may have attacked Tokyo just before large typhoon hit. Hillary may have been president.
Didn’t google it. Nice try at diversion.But he gave up his $400,000 presidential salary....

There are already 2 outstanding Trump resort threads, maybe more:
AOC renews calls to impeach president Trump amid investigation into Scotland resort
Air Force crew made an odd stop on a routine trip: Trump’s Scottish resort
AT least 2 Dorian + Trump resort, also.

They spent $134 a room at one of the finest golf resorts in the world and the Rats lose their shit. A simple look at what Mike aka "Michelle" spent flying on her (cough) own instead of with her (cough) husband on AF! should shut them up. Rat's don't understand money because few of them have earned any.

Not diverting anything....their first page (which few if any ever get past) is all left wing sites. A new study figures it cost Trump from 3-12M votes....what's your opinion of such blatant propaganda?
