I will say this, that Donald Trump, for all his pomp and circumstance, came off to me in my one (short) meeting with him as a likable, affable gentleman, who absolutely LOVES the Game of Golf.
His courses at Bedminster (the only two I have personally seen) are not the best in their area, they're not the end-all-be-all of GCA and golf courses in general, but they are both DAMN FINE golf courses, if not world-class.
As a side note, I can appreciate Donald Trump's humanity and egoism, if not his great theatrical exuberance about his Scottish project. I think it's pretty cool that he's into it. And I'm sure he'll do a great job.
Just no island greens, Donald!
