Fighting Trump

Documentary I directed and presented as my final graduation film for my Television Production degree. The documentary follows three people who have been affected by US billionaire Donald Trump's planned golf development in Menie, near Aberdeen in Scotland.

  1. [..YouTube..] Mr Trump, take a look around the farms in America… you’ll find that most of them have far more junk & rusting machinery too. What’s going on at Menie, is a travesty. My friends are being treated most unfairly by this “bully”. The council & the scottish government seem to be firmly in his back pocket.

  2. [..YouTube..] Hi there, I agree completely with what you have to say here about trump (No Capital letters!) The council are a bunch of numptys and firmly in trumps back pocket.

  13. [..YouTube..] Trump needs to be deeply apolegtic for his behaviour. It seems to me that the dunes themselves a re a natural area that should have been protected as a natural area. Unigue and probably with lots of plant and wildlife –The idea he is doing this to please his dead mother is absurd. Any decent mother would be deeply ashamed of such stupidity and arrogance .I would like to hear more about the dunes and what actually they are all about –why is this natural area not preserved

  14. [..YouTube..] im scottish and i think its a good idea

  15. [..YouTube..] No one likes a slum. Clean up the mess.

  16. J S:

    [..YouTube..] Stay strong Scotland. Get rid of this turd trump.

  17. [..YouTube..] Stay strong Scotland. Get rid of this turd trump.

  18. [..YouTube..] The golf course would be a great addition to the area – I hate Trump for reasons beyond building a complex that would provide tons of jobs.

  19. [..YouTube..] @MissEgasMoniz, what are the reasons why people wouldn’t want this development? It seems to me there are two issues here: one, compulsory purchase and, two, the project itself. From what I’ve read, this project itself will not “destroy” the environment, as this video implies. In fact, it is in Trump’s interest to preserve its beauty. Also, the economic impact to the area would be tremendous. The troublesome issue to me is compulsory purchase, but you should blame your government for that.

  20. [..YouTube..] THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OPENLY HARBORS RACISTS AND RACIST VIEWPOINTS… Be aware of that when you vote in 2012 and don’t fall for their lying lips that will tell people whatever they want to hear in order to get elected… They have a very evil agenda…

  21. [..YouTube..] Trump is a bully, he’s a spoiled rich man that can’t take NO for an answer. God help America, this man wants to be President.

  22. [..YouTube..] I think Scotland should be given its independence, the whole nation votes labour which mean they must take glee in labours destruction of England. The fact that trump is trying to stitch up some commie scots gladdens me, go on Donald, do em.

  23. [..YouTube..] Trump is the worst one of the lot.

  24. [..YouTube..] Where the fuck are those so-called “royals” in this?… they surely are selling the land which is not theirs

  25. [..YouTube..] Nice! What is a slum? Does everything need to be clinically clean and kitsch like Trump’s properties?

  26. [..YouTube..] u got to understand, these are just like 5 people who oppose trump cos hes getting their houses. but im sure others wouldnt mind a new golf course, hotels and houses

  27. [..YouTube..] take an american farm, old an warn down loaded like a dump site, but still most of the rarest old antikes are found on these estates, things which idiots like trump, letterman and jay leno not to mention jerry seinfeld will pay loads of money for especially cars..without these old farms, homes at the ends of the world, the charm of the old time will dissappear… fuck of to arabia and build in their sand, together with all the other “rich kids” who likes this shit.. leave history alone..

  29. [..YouTube..] FUCK Trump!

  30. [..YouTube..] Trump the ultimate scum!

  31. [..YouTube..] @myheadislikeasieve Commie Scots? really where in this entire video did you get the impression they’re communist? and why would it even matter? maybe your head is indeed like a sieve :p

  32. [..YouTube..] @myheadislikeasieve

  33. [..YouTube..] wow, donald is even more of a dick than i thought… and i though very poorly of him to begin with.

  34. [..YouTube..] great vid

  35. [..YouTube..] great vid

  36. [..YouTube..] What is the Scottish government’s stand on the Menie issue. Alex Salmond is keeping quiet while Northern Constabulary and others take some stick. Speak up Alex. Let the voters know where you stand. We like open govt. and honesty in Scottish politics. Sort Trump out now. It is our country!

  38. [..YouTube..] Noblesse oblige, 21st century style. Bullying, grandstanding, lying, self-aggrandizement, intimidation, insults all are techniques of Trump the Clown. The only way to protect ordinary people from such a character is to stop the atomization of those harmed by his accusations and his bulldozing of their environments. American political wannabes kiss Trump’s ring and reinforce his delusions of grandeur thus granting power to a most bizarre person. Laugh AT him. Stop the bully. No concessions.

  39. [..YouTube..] trump – stupid name anyway

  40. [..YouTube..] Fighting Trump sounds like trying to hold a fart in.

  41. [..YouTube..] Why is there companies in Scottland who actually obey Trump and accept to destroy this country ?? Like with Hitler, who’s the worst Hitler or the ones who obey ? Somebody should kill the Trump family, all of them.

  42. [..YouTube..] I have loved Menie all my life. God’s natural creation to be destroyed by a small minded American idiot. I fully support all the residents of Menie with all my heart. I only pray that the sustainable wind farm will go ahead to put an end to this madness. If DT wants to make money then he should do it in America and not in a small area I’d Scotland. He has shown he has no regard for other humans or the land. Go home Trump you are NOT welcome here.

  43. [..YouTube..] Democrasy is a farth .

  44. [..YouTube..] Democrasy is a farth .

  45. [..YouTube..] I’m American, and live in the states, WE HATE HIM OVER HERE TOO!! He’s disgusting.

  46. [..YouTube..] fuck trump,just another fat ugly bully,with the worst comb over since nobby styles.im shocked that not more has helped them,especialy in government,who come across as trumps lackys as do the spineless grampian police[scum]. trump represents every thing that is wrong with humanity.and the world would improve if the fat cunt had a heartattack and died,and his shit plans with him.cunt.

  47. [..YouTube..] Its very simple, once the golf course is up and running, we need to exercise our right to roam, yes, all over the golf course. Nothing upsets a golfer more than having the public wandering across fairways and getting in the way. How do I know, I am a golfer, and I would not support this development. The locals need to make the SNP govt and local council pay at the ballot box for this incredible mistake. I hope they were well paid for this bad decision.

  49. [..YouTube..] Troshy, this is a fantastic little documentary. Just gearing up to watch ‘You’ve Been Trumped’, but this gave a great insight into a community and their horrific battle. Your interview technique is fantastic, allowing the subject to talk without bombarding them with questions.

    The only comment on Trump being a liar is that he states he gave many jobs to local people, yet the security guard seems to be Irish. Yet another lie, unless of course that man lived there, but it is doubtful.

  52. [..YouTube..] terrible man!

  53. [..YouTube..] Well done. I’m an avid American golfer and every course I play is built along houses, old and young. Donald Trump has done nothing for golf but reinforce the stereotype of the game reserved for wealthy old-boys. He is a racist instigator without knowledge or concern for planet Earth or its people.

  54. [..YouTube..] Thanks! Yes the security company is not local

  55. [..YouTube..] Most of us in America did not know this was happening! We are ashamed of this man’s actions. We have only gotten to know him through his crude actions against our Presdient Obama. Join us and tell it like it is!

  57. [..YouTube..] And where was Alex salmond when all this happened? Oh yeah hiding in a corner doing nothing about it

  58. [..YouTube..] I would shake Michael Forbes by the hand…trump by the throat!!

    trump….Tha thu ‘nad fhaighean! You’re a cvnt!

  59. [..YouTube..] I would shake Michael Forbes by the hand…trump by the throat!!

    trump….Tha thu ‘nad fhaighean! You’re a cvnt!

  60. [..YouTube..] Love your documentary it’s the perfect size for posting on Trump’s two main Facebook pages (his personal, Donald J.Trump&The Apprentice) where his followers declare this is all a lie made up by the”mainstream media”.Wish i could get them to watch”You’ve Been Trumped” but they’ve already decided it’s merely a smear video and complete fiction.I’ve linked news articles on the subject from all over but they insist the families effected are not real&have been fabricated by bleeding heart liberals.

  61. [..YouTube..] Well done! This needs to be viewed by everyone, ESPECIALLY by anyone who would work with or defend Trump – the epitome of a megalomaniac. No surprise he’s desecrating Scotland, everything he touches becomes hideous and tacky. Trump is delusional. I suppose he’s considered eccentric because he has money, otherwise he’d be in a psych ward based on his paranoia and delusions of grandeur.

  62. [..YouTube..] Really good piece, well done.

  63. [..YouTube..] Really good piece, well done.

  64. [..YouTube..] fucking outrageous, i’m spitting mad about this – had no idea.

  65. [..YouTube..] The difference between those two men, Trump and Forbes – you can tell within 3 seconds of each one talking which one is “not right”

  67. [..YouTube..] Very well made documentary.

  68. [..YouTube..] Well done!

  69. [..YouTube..] please keep up the fight don’t let trump win big corps always use the little man tho step on or control their lives i love it when people fight back and beat the big corps stand firm and live free of industrial take over

  70. [..YouTube..] Trump thinks he owns the world, he’s the kind of guy that makes you hate the USA (not that I do, but I can imagine). Go and build your golf course in Baghdad, Tikrit, Teheran or Aleppo dear Donald, see if people like you over there.

  71. [..YouTube..] I can’t really see how this has anything to do with him coming from the US. Wether you’re Swiss, American, Russian, Chinese or whatever, If you’re a delusional money-grubbing a.hole you’re an a.hole regardless of your nationality.

  73. [..YouTube..] Look at how repulsive Donald Trump looks. It is totally disgusting how he maintains his hair

  74. [..YouTube..] Nice work. Cheers for the “little” guy.

  75. [..YouTube..] Fire the Donald…Fire the Donald…Fire the Donald!!!

  76. [..YouTube..] As a born US citizen, I can safely say most of the people I know can’t stand Donald Chump. I will buy a bottle of Glenfiddich (as Ralfy suggested) in honor of the cause of ridding Scotland of him. It’s bad enough he ruined Atlantic City, and turned it into a sh!thole. I’m with you Scotland, keep on fighting!

  77. [..YouTube..] Donald go home!

  78. [..YouTube..] Bravo, Bravo, from Québec, Canada

  79. [..YouTube..] Anyone who can hate a country because of one man is a fool. I’m from the USA and I can’t stand TRUMP, he thinks he’s the most important man on earth because he has money. He’s obnoxious and arrogant. To hell with trump, I bought 10 bottles of Glenfiddich, lol.

  80. [..YouTube..] great little film and I hope the residents win their right to stay on their land.

  81. [..YouTube..] great little film and I hope the residents win their right to stay on their land.

  82. [..YouTube..] And where is that grotty little weasel Salmond? Taking backhanders to support the approval?

  83. [..YouTube..] great developer of ABEDEEN … the Apprentice WILL BE brought in ABEDDEEN scotland

  84. [..YouTube..] YOU’RE THE GREAT DEVELOPER IN THE WORLD ^_^

  85. [..YouTube..] NICE HAIR BLOWN BY THE AIR… IT LOOKS LIKE A WIG… WHAT’S UR SHAMPOO

  86. [..YouTube..] NICE HAIR BLOWN BY THE AIR… IT LOOKS LIKE A WIG… WHAT’S UR SHAMPOO

  87. [..YouTube..] Trump is a cunt.

  88. [..YouTube..] Americans

  89. [..YouTube..] I’m Scottish and I’ve never been more proud of another Scot, Michael Forbes is a hero.

  90. [..YouTube..] I hope Trump trips on his thousand dollar shoelaces and breaks his fucking back.

  91. [..YouTube..] subtitles in english would be good
