Trump Faces Protests in Scotland & Britain
------------------------------------------

President Trump also faced protests during his visit to Scotland this
weekend, where a paraglider flew over Trump's Turnberry golf course
holding a sign that read "Trump Well Below Par," while protesters
rallied outside his private golf resort.

Protester: "He is a racist, a misogynist. There is a whole list, a
catalogue, of insensibilities that he brings to that esteemed office,
the president of the United States. But most of all, I don't think he
should go in a local hotel in Turnberry. I think he should just go back
to America."

A quarter of a million people also poured into the streets across
Britain on Friday to protest Trump's first visit to the U.K. as
president.
