Donald Trump goes to Scottish Supreme Court over Menie wind farm

Developers intend to site the large turbine structures close to Mr Trump's golfing development on the Aberdeenshire coast.
The US businessman has taken on the Scottish government, which approved the plan.
Mr Trump began his challenge to the decision to grant planning permission more than two years ago.
He was furious when the Scottish government approved plans for the renewable energy development within sight of his multi-million pound golf development on the Menie Estate in the north-east of Scotland.

He said the 11 turbines would spoil the view.
Mr Trump made a series of legal challenges in the Scottish courts and has now taken the fight to the UK's Supreme Court in London.
He has argued that planning consent for the wind farm was so imprecise as to make it legally invalid.
Following Mr Trump's earlier unsuccessful actions in the Scottish courts, the Scottish government said its decision-making process had been vindicated and that the "painstaking work" of Marine Scotland staff who advised it was both fair and reasonable.
The Supreme Court judges are expected to deliver their verdict at a later date.

Reasons people would take Donald Trump seriously:

• Owns a 58 story high sky scraper in NYC.
• Owning and maintaining two large Real-Estate Companies.
• Net worth: $4 Billion.
• Extremely successful in his business endeavors.

You should take him seriously too.
I'm not voting for him, but he's not an idiot. As much as you people would like to say that he is, you couldn't be in his place if you dreamed of it.

Of course he's not an idiot but he is an idiot.

Sure, he's successful, but that doesn't mean he gets to do whatever he wants. Nor does having billions of dollars and hating Mexicans mean you can run for president, successfully.

Money runs the world. Trump has money, so technically, he could run America too.
Personally idgaf who wins the presidential election. I'd rather cut my wrists in the bathtub than vote for any of the candidates running, but Trump is indeed a smart man.

Reasons not to take him seriously:

His daddy made the money, he inherited it. It's a lot easier to maintain wealth than create it (ESPECIALLY from scratch).
He went bankrupt 2x+ times.
I'm sure he's decently smart, but not anywhere what you think he is.

Glad someone said this.
People love to put him as a capitalism posterboy, and circlejerk about the 'american dream' ; he pretty much fell headlong into his fortune (and almost lost it several times over).

Is that public record? Cause I remember when I was watching the debate he dined that several times. But idk what the fuck to believe anymore. (talking about him going bankrupt.)

You're making it out as if I support him. If you re-read my post I said that I actually DO NOT support him. I'm just saying there are several reasons to respect the man.

Not only this, but there is proof that he made money by dealing with the mob.
So not only did he inherit the money, but he could not create further wealth for himself without doing it dirty.

Not at all. You made it clear you don't support him or any candidate. (which is respectable but naieve IMO at the same time)

I'm just saying he's not as smart as you're making him out to be. The ass that he makes himself out to be is probably more than his face value. Being a bit educated and business savvy and not too good at that doesn't really strike me as smart.

That's true you've made good points. As naive as it may be, I just can't find common ground with any of the candidates running.
