It was reported last week that Donald Trump ordered Vice President Mike Pence to stay at his resort in Doonbeg, Ireland, during his visit.
Now, House Democrats will be investigating Pence’s stay at Trump’s resort. It has also been reported that the U.S. Air Force is investigating overnight by flight crews at a Trump-owned property in Scotland.
As these investigations launch, Trump is hitting the panic button and took to Twitter to try and distance himself from it all.
He tweeted saying:
“I know nothing about an Air Force plane landing at an airport (which I do not own and have nothing to do with) near Turnberry Resort (which I do own) in Scotland, and filling up with fuel, with the crew staying overnight at Turnberry (they have good taste!). NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.”
“I had nothing to do with the decision of our great @VP Mike Pence to stay overnight at one of the Trump owned resorts in Doonbeg, Ireland. Mike’s family has lived in Doonbeg for many years, and he thought that during his very busy European visit, he would stop and see his family!”
