    And How Long Have You Known Mr. Trump?

    I note with interest that three of the five replies to the original posting seem to be mean spirited rants simply because Mr. Trump is wealthy. Actually Mr. Trump has never been bankrupt, nor is he arrogant, nor was he born out of wedlock.

    At issue is the fact that the PR and marketing firm representing one of Mr. Trump's real estate developments, in Scotland, was unaware that the use of coats-of-arms by any individual or entity is regulated by law in Scotland.

    Once Mr. Trump's company was made aware of this fact they contacted the Court of the Lord Lyon to request a grant of arms (presumably to be based on the design of the logotype currently in use). As, at the present moment, the office of the Lord Lyon is vacant the Lyon Clerk has referred the matter to the Procurator Fiscal who will determine if an offense has occurred. Far from being an earth shaking "crime" this legal oversight is a regular occurrence. It most often happens when an English firm opens offices in Scotland and displays arms which are not recorded in the office of the Lord Lyon.

    Well I think you need to check your information. Perhaps Mr. Trump has never been personally bankrupt but his business has been at least twice that I can think of.

    Not arrogant?!?!?!


    He needs to be evicted from all of the UK and NEVER allowed back. Now if we could just do that to him here in the US.
