He should study two genuinely great Scots - Robert Burns, the egalitarian who, if he was still with us, would tear Trump apart with brilliant satire and wit.

McLeod, and my Scottish born Grandfather, John Cameron McLeod, are turning over in their graves at the very idea that a McLeod connection is trying to force another person off their own property... it is a shame and a scandal!Eleanor M.
