A bizarre tribute to Jeffrey Epstein has reportedly been put on bench at Donald Trump’s golf course in Scotland.
It comes just days before Trump is due to pay a state visit to the UK for three-days later this month. King Charles will host Trump at Windsor Castle because Buckingham Palace is still undergoing significant renovations.
The trip comes two months after the president spent four days in Scotland, where he met politicians and visited his golf courses.

Donald Trump’s visit to the UK later this month will see a major policing operation led by drones from the airspace over Windsor, police have said.
The King is to host the US president and his wife, first lady Melania Trump, at Windsor Castle from September 17 to 19, where they will be feted with a ceremonial welcome and state banquet.
A 24/7 policing operation will be in place in the Berkshire town during the event, with a temporary order restricting the airspace from September 16 – when the state visit rehearsal is to take place – until September 18.
“It’s a significant policing operation for us,” Inspector Matthew Wilkinson, airspace bronze commander for Thames Valley Police, said.

Ahead of the state visit a video has emerged online claiming to show a tribute to Jeffrey Epstein on a bench supposedly at Trump’s golf course in Aberdeen. The post, by political campaign group Everyone Hates Elon, has attracted over 121k likes in a matter of hours.
The plaque shown in the video reads: “In loving memory of Jeffrey Epstein – a terrific guy. See you very, very soon. From Donald.” It is not clear if this has been placed at the location or if the location used in the video is infact correct.
Hundreds of people commented on the post, one wrote: “I’m here for this level of pettiness!” Another wrote: “I hope this is real,” a third wrote: “This is petty damn fantastic!” Others were less impressed with the post, one questioned the truth behind the video and wrote: “Yeah sure its his golf course. Prove it.”
The political group have a Crowdfunder set up to fund “ways to expose Trump on his state visit”. The page has already raised £26,000 of its £35,000 target.
Trump International Scotland has been contacted for comment.
