Trump International Scotland has hit out at First Minister John Swinney's failure to back Trump's presidential campaign, branding it "appalling" and an "insult".
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, SNP leader Swinney said: “People in the United States of America should vote for Kamala Harris, and I have not come to that conclusion only because Donald Trump is opposed to Scottish independence.”
And now Sarah
Malone, executive vice president of Trump International Scotland, has hit back.
She said:
"The Trump family has shown unwavering commitment to Scotland - pouring
hundreds of millions of dollars into the Scottish economy - and driving many
tens of thousands of international visitors to Scotland every year.
"Around 600 people - the majority of whom are Scottish - are employed directly by
Trump businesses and many more local and national businesses thrive on
supplying services to our resorts.
"It is appalling to see the first minister,
who talks of the need to encourage economic growth, insult this commitment and
all the people involved in delivering world-class services here in
Scotland."
There are just days to go until the US votes to determine its 47th president on November 5.
