US President Donald Trump's private five-day visit to Scotland has sparked widespread outrage across the country, with demonstrators taking to the streets in Edinburgh and Aberdeen to protest both his political record and the nature of his visit. 

According to STV, hundreds rallied on Saturday, denouncing Trump's return to the international stage. Protesters in Aberdeen carried placards reading “No to Trump” and “Stop Trump,” while many waved Palestinian flags in solidarity with Gaza as global outrage continues to grow over his foreign policies and continued US support for Israeli aggression.

Though framed as a personal trip, Trump's itinerary includes high-level meetings with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The visit comes ahead of his official UK trip scheduled for September 17–19, but many critics argue that the current stop is far from apolitical.

The president is also using the trip to promote his private business interests, particularly his Trump-branded golf resorts in Turnberry and Aberdeen. On Friday, he visited a newly completed facility near Aberdeen, named after his mother, as part of a tour that blends diplomacy with commercial self-promotion.

Local police have carried out security operations around the resort where Trump is staying, with reports of extensive checks and logistical preparations. Media sources note that this is one of Scotland's largest security deployments since 2022, involving road closures and airspace restrictions.

Critics from across the political spectrum have condemned what they view as a blurring of lines between official diplomacy and personal profit. Trump's business dealings in Scotland, where his golf properties have long courted controversy, are once again in the spotlight.
