Yes, pretty funny. The meme, and it is widespread, is that Trump is all about Trump, because he goes to Scotland to open a property his son managed renovation on, and spoke well of the property to the audience. Now, the press invited itself, but the press does not write the speech or set the agenda. Trump thanked the local authorities, and told the public that this is a top-shelf golf resort.
CNN's Cuomo told his audience that all of this was out of line and irrelevant. Well, if the press had asked "what are you going to talk about when you open the property," they likely would have learned that Trump was going to talk up the property and thank the local authorities.
I don't think the meme has any traction at all. Of course Trump is proud of his business ventures. Is there something wrong with that? He also wants his customers to go away, "happy customers," unlike the politicians who talk a fast game but don't give two figs about the well being of their marks, the voters.
It looked like an absolutely amazing golf course. Hope he got to play it. The guy knows how to build resorts for the wealthy.
All Trump has to say is:
“I didn’t take a bribe from anyone to make a speech at MY golf course.”
