Does America have a more laughably contemptible public figure than Donald Trump? He used to be just laughably odious, but then he jumped on the birther bandwagon last winter to try to jack up ratings for his TV show. Anyway, for the past half-dozen years Scotland has been having to put up with him, too. The Donald has been developing a golf resort costing $1.6 billion near Aberdeen, on the North Sea coast. “I’m going to build for the people of Scotland the greatest golf course in the world,” he declares in “You’ve Been Trumped.” “There’ll be nothing like it.” Local opposition to his Caledonian foray — opponents think he’s building it for wealthy Americans, not them — is the subject of the documentary.
