resort in Scotland -- if he does go to Turnberry on the 19th, as some reports indicate -- might simply be his response to not having any home here in the US that he's comfortable with at the moment.

Even if he and Melania are looking at estates in Florida since they can't live permanently at Mar-a-Lago, they don't have one yet.

And since Turnberry has been losing a lot of money, about $10 million a year, spending time there allows Trump to plug the resort on free media.
