In 2012, Donald Trump explored the possibility of purchasing the Scottish football club Rangers amid its financial difficulties but ultimately decided against the deal. Despite his connections to Scotland through his mother's heritage and previous investments in the country, Trump's interest in Rangers didn't align with his business interests. He later considered a bid for Colombian club Atletico Nacional in 2015. Trump's playful presence was seen during the empty stadiums of COVID-19 via cardboard cutouts, adding a humorous twist to his association with British football.

Trump's mother was born near Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides and her son showed affection for Scotland by upsetting everybody in it.
