Scottish Green Party leader Zack Polanski called for Donald Trump to be removed from his golf courses in Scotland during a Holyrood campaign appearance. Trump International, which operates the courses, responded by calling Polanski an "imbecile" for sharing what the organization characterized as a personal opinion on the campaign trail.
The dispute centers on Trump's Scottish golf properties, which have been a point of contention in Scottish politics. Polanski's call to oust Trump from the courses reflects broader political tensions around the former U.S. president's business interests in the country.
Trump International's sharp rebuke marks an escalation in the exchange, moving beyond typical political disagreement into personal attacks on the politician. The incident underscores the polarized nature of discussions involving Trump's international business ventures and his political role.
