DAVID Mundell hopes that Donald Trump has a good time golfing at his Turnberry resort and sees it right and fitting that, in Trump’s capacity as President of the United States, we welcome him to Scotland.

I wholeheartedly disagree. My view is that respect should be earned and not gained merely through a title. I could list many reasons arguing why the current President of the United States holds no respect for the office to which he was elected, but I won’t. Instead, I will mimic a novel approach used by Roger Waters so effectively in his current world tour.

If anyone is wondering why there is such a passionate and furious reaction to Trump being given the red carpet treatment by our UK Government, I would suggest they read a short compilation of printed Trump quotes. These alone are reason enough to be disgusted.

I give you the words of Donald Trump on:

WEALTH

  • “The point is you can never be too greedy."
  • “The beauty of me is that I’m very rich.”
  • “I dealt with Gaddafi. I rented him a piece of land. He paid me more for one night than the land was worth for two years, and then I didn’t let him use the land. That’s what we should be doing. I don’t want to use the word ‘screwed’, but I screwed him. That’s what we should be doing.”

TERRORISTS

  • “The other thing with terrorists is you have to take out their families. They care about their lives.”

THE ELECTORATE

  • “I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters.”

WOMEN

  • “All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me – consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”
  •  “I just start kissing them. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ‘em by the pussy. You can do anything.”
  •  “I think the only difference between me and the other candidates is that I’m more honest and my women are more beautiful.”
  •  [Said of moderator Megyn Kelly]: “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her... wherever."
  • [On supermodel Heidi Klum, who had just turned 42] “Heidi Klum. Sadly, she’s no longer a 10.”

HIS DAUGHTER

  •  “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter. Perhaps I would be dating her.”

APOLOGIES

  •  “I think apologising’s a great thing. But you have to be wrong. I will absolutely apologise. Sometime in the hopefully distant future. If I’m ever wrong”

BORDER CONTROL

  •  “A nation without borders is not a nation at all. We must have a wall.”
  •  “I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”
  •  “The wall will go up and Mexico will start behaving”

IMMIGRANTS

  •  “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems. They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime. They’re rapists and some, I assume, are good people.”

GAY MARRIAGE

  •  “It’s like in golf. A lot of people – I don’t want this to sound trivial – but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive. It’s weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can’t sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist.”

HILLARY CLINTON

  •  “The only card she has is the woman’s card. She’s got nothing else to offer and frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5% of the vote.”

MUSLIMS

  • “Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”

HIS INTELLIGENCE

  •  “Sorry losers and haters, but my IQ is one of the highest – and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure, it’s not your fault.”
  • “I’m not a schmuck. Even if the world goes to hell in a handbasket. I won’t lose a penny”

HIS BODY

  •  “My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body.”

AFRICAN-AMERICANS

  •  “I have a great relationship with the Blacks. I’ve always had a great relationship with the Blacks”

THE PRESIDENCY

  •  “This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier”

CLIMATE CONTROL

  •  “It’s really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global warming!”

AMERICAN HISTORY

  •  “Why was there the Civil War? Why could that one not have been worked out?”

MEDIA CRITICISM

  •  “You know, it really doesn’t matter what they write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.”

NUCLEAR ARMS

  • “North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un just stated that the 'Nuclear Button is on his desk at all times.' Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!”

HIS VICTORY IN NEVADA

  • “I love the poorly educated.”

SEXUAL ASSAULT IN THE MILITARY

  • “26,000 unreported sexual assaults in the military – only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men and women together?”

ABORTION

  •  “There has to be some form of punishment.”

Would you wine and dine this man in your house, never mind your country?
