President Trump's two golf courses in Scotland posted a combined loss of $6.07 million in 2017, new filings in the United Kingdom show.
The Trump Organization has poured more than $196 million into the golf courses but has not yet made a profit, the Los Angeles Times reports. Trump purchased the 800-acre Turnberry property in 2014, and lost $4.42 million last year, while Trump's resort near Aberdeen, which opened in 2012, lost $1.65 million. To cut costs there, the Trump Organization has reduced its staff.
