Filmmaker to release ‘You’ve been Trumped too’

A Scottish filmmaker who took on Donald Trump over his controversial Aberdeenshire golf course is making a new documentary about the Trump.

Anthony Baxter has travelled to America to confront Trump with residents from the Menie estate who refused to move home to make way for the development.

The new film will be released just weeks before the American presidential election.

‘You’ve Been Trumped Too’, covers what Baxter says is a prolonged campaign of  “bullying and intimidation".

It will feature Michael Forbes, a salmon fisherman from Aberdeenshire, turning up with his wife Sheila at the Republican National Convention.

Forbes’ mother Molly was forced to fetch water from a stream in a wheelbarrow for six years after her supply was cut off during work on the resort.

Baxter told The Scotsman: “When you start documenting something and things continue to happen you feel that you can’t just let it go.

“It is so important that people understand this has got gone away for the residents next to the Trump course.

They still feel angry and under threat.”

“I just feel it is such an important story that Americans should hear and consider. It’s a crucial moment to get the film out.”
