Golf CourseA looming court battle in Scotland could see the government there forced into an unprecedented investigation of how former President Donald Trump came to purchase a lavish golf course all in cash.
A campaign group suspicious of the source of Trump's wealth hopes to prompt a so-called unexplained wealth order - known informally as a "McMafia" investigation - into the purchase.
Nick Flynn, legal director of campaign group Avaaz, told Insider there was a "towering cloud of suspicion" over Trump's $60 million purchase of Turnberry, the storied resort near Glasgow, in 2014.
The former president purchased the resort using cash, despite having spent his career until then relying on borrowed funds to build his real-estate empire as the self-styled "king of debt."
The source of the money is a secret. The only hint so far - strenuously denied - is an unverified claim that the money came from Russia.
