Would you play a Trump course?

The strangest one is royal burgess, which is a male only club. It has a very nice and massive women's locker room!

sounds totally illogical, i guess it shows how much it boils down to a few individuals making the decisions at each club (having just had new lockers installed in our mens locker rooms for the first time in many years ours are an improvement on the ladies)
 
I'd play a course owned by Kim Jong Un. I have zero interest in the ownership but rather the quality and test of the course in about to defile with my shocking play.
I have played a trump course and loved it. I'm going to play another soon enough. Fact of the matter is that Trump is a golfer and a (ex)businessman who happens to own some very good courses which I would like to play.

Trump Aberdeen was a pretty good example on that respect. Women's par and SSS from three different tees, I wish all courses did that. Slight gripe was the women's locker room was very small and a bit inadequate but that's the only fault I could find and is nit picking a bit.

I found the locker rooms surprisingly small and dark and thought they could have been four times as big.

And I was using the men's ;)
 
That was kind-of the point I was getting at. Trump courses are, within financial constraints, open to all and can be considered progressive and forward looking compared to many existing clubs and courses.

Doesn't stop Trump being a monumentally dangerous and offensive halfwit of a manchild. I'm not 100% comfortable playing a course with his name on it but neither am I 100% comfortable with some of the male/female segregation in my local clubs.
 
In a heartbeat, for all you objectors when they build motorways they use cpo's and the owners don't get a choice in he matter, you still use the motorway right?
 
Yes me too why not?

I accept that a few local people may have had their noses put out of place short term but consider the bigger picture. Trump's investment in Scotland has to be a positive thing for the country in so many ways. Would you prefer if he invested in Wales for example?

(And the bloke is half Scottish is he not?)
 
If he came to Wales to create jobs Plaid and Labour would be all over him like a cheap suit. Local boy "dun-good" build Celtic Manor...nearly 1000 jobs in Newport. Trouble is vast majority are min wage

Even the past Archbishop of Canterbury has said the the current hysteria is ott and he's not exactly a rapid facist is he?

As OP says - I'm not trying to persuade anyone of the rights or wrongs of playing a Trump course - each to his own. And IMO playing 'whatabootery' gets us nowhere. Due to the character, actions and words of the guy I just wouldn't go near any of his courses.
