President Donald Trump is traveling to Scotland on Friday to visit both his Turnberry and Aberdeen golf properties. Trump is also expected to meet with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to discuss trade and refine a deal they announced in June to slash tariffs and expand market access between the two countries.

The trip abroad, which the White House described as a "working visit," comes at a particularly fraught moment in Trump's second term, as he faces questions from his supporters over his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Trump is expected to spend four days in Scotland, his mother's native land. He visited the country during his 2016 presidential campaign and during his first term.
