DONALD Trump’s stroppy letter to Nicola Sturgeon, after she stripped him of his special Scottish business ambassador title, has been revealed for the first time.

The now President wrote to the First Minister on December 9, 2015, almost immediately after the Scottish Government kicked the billionaire out of the GlobalScot business network for proposing a complete ban on Muslims entering the US.

At the time, a spokeswoman for Sturgeon said his comments showed he was “no longer fit to be a business ambassador for Scotland”.

Aberdeen’s Robert Gordon University also stripped the half-Scottish tycoon of an honorary degree awarded in 2010, saying his comments had been “wholly incompatible” with its ethos and values.

In the letter Trump, who was fighting to win the Republican primary at the time, wrote: “I have heard a movement is going on in Scotland.

“I only wish I would have been informed prior to my 200 million pound investment at Turnberry where we are building new ballrooms, suites and a new golf course (together with a total renovation of the great Ailsa course). This will totally revitalize South Ayrshire.”

He added: “I look forward to meeting you one day.”

The Scottish Government would not say if the First Minister had replied to Trump.

The letter was one of a number from the controversial businessman to Scottish ministers published yesterday under Freedom of Information legislation. Surprisingly, despite their fractured relationship, the billionaire continued sending letters to Alex Salmond and the Scottish Government, right up until he won the Republican primary last year.

Last March, Trump, who by that point had all but won the primary to become the Republican candidate in the US presidential election, found time to send the former First Minister a scanned copy of the Ayrshire Post. Trump thought Salmond would “enjoy” the paper’s exclusive look at the renovation being done at the Turnberry club.

This was well after the two had fallen out over plans for a wind farm off the coast of Aberdeenshire, where Trump’s Menie course is based.

Most of the letters from Trump to Salmond include newspaper articles warning of eagles and other birds being killed by wind turbines. Other letters sent by the now President, include a scan of golfing magazine with a story about Salmond joining in a game with a couple of the publication’s reporters.

The magazine had a picture of the former SNP leader having just taken a shot. In his distinctive scrawl Trump writes: “Alex, in case you didn’t see this, great form.”

Trump’s Turnberry accounts cast some doubts on his claims he invested £200m in the club. Work was completed in June last year, but company accounts show that by December 31, 2015, he had spent only £62m on buying the resort, its running costs, and the upgrade and course reorganisation.

The accounts also show he loaned his course £42m in 2014 and £21m in 2015.

According to The Guardian, £35m of that was spent on buying the business, implying that in order to meet his pledged refurbishment investment of £200m he needed to spend a further £138m in the first six months of last year. The accounts show that this investment only increased the value of Turnberry’s physical assets by £14.4m by the end of last year.

Trump resigned from his Scottish businesses interests in January this year, handing management of the golf courses to sons Eric and Donald Jr.

Trump is not having a great reception as President at the moment. In a national poll by Quinnipiac University, 1514 voters were asked for the first word that came to mind when they thought of Trump – 64 said “strong” and 59 said “idiot”. Another 58 said “incompetent”, 50 said “liar” and 49 said “president”.
