Investigative journalist Anthony Baxter travels between the US Presidential race and the Scottish countryside to chronicle the troubling confrontation between Donald Trump and a feisty 92-year-old widow, Molly Forbes, as she refuses to make way for his golf course. This shocking insight to a David and goliath battle is a remarkable document of the disconnect between political rhetoric and the lives of ordinary people.

00:00:00This is not simply another four-year election.
00:00:15This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization.
00:00:21This is a struggle for the survival of our nation, believe me, and this will be our last
00:00:29chance to save it.
00:00:31To be lied about, to be slandered, to be smeared so publicly, and before your family that you
00:00:38love is very painful.
00:00:53What's unfair is that you show Mollie Forbes.
00:00:56She actually reminds me a little bit of my mother, if you want to know the truth.
00:00:59She looks like a lovely woman.
00:01:01Makes it even more poignant in a way, because he says that you remind him of his mother.
00:01:08Well, he hadn't been very good to her then.
00:01:14These are gorgeous, aren't they?
00:01:20They're lovely.
00:01:22They drink a lot of water.
00:01:27Everybody promises the world, but it never happens.
00:01:33Never trust Trump.
00:01:41Everybody needs water.
00:01:43Every living thing needs water.
00:01:46How many floors up from here is your office, Mr. Trump?
00:01:49I'm about 10, and then I live about 68 floors up.
00:01:54Oh, really?
00:01:55Yes.
00:01:5668.
00:01:57Wow.
00:01:58Yeah.
00:01:59What have you?
00:02:00How's everything in Scotland?
00:02:01Well, we've actually no water at all.
00:02:04There's no water going into the well now.
00:02:09All because of Trump.
00:02:10She's a 91-year-old, but he wouldn't care about that because all he cares about is Trumps.
00:02:17Does this bother you, Anthony, that it sticks out so far?
00:02:19You know, normally it's, you don't even see it.
00:02:25You could just swap my mic around with Mr. Trump's, because that's got a different clip
00:02:29on it.
00:02:30Is that a different holder?
00:02:31Yeah.
00:02:32Yeah.
00:02:33It's the worst clip I've ever seen.
00:02:34Don.
00:02:35Hey, Don.
00:02:36Would you go to my desk and bring the clips down?
00:02:37I want to show Anthony.
00:02:38They're right on my desk.
00:02:39Or maybe, uh, maybe you can put them on my desk.
00:02:40Yeah.
00:02:41Yeah.
00:02:42Yeah.

00:04:16Yeah.
00:04:17Yeah.
00:04:18Yeah.
00:04:19Should I button or not button?
00:04:20I think button is better.
00:04:21Button better?
00:04:22Yeah.
00:04:23Well, I hope it doesn't happen.
00:04:24For America's sake and for the world.
00:04:28Is this your primary camera for me?
00:04:42And I do it in honor of my mother.
00:04:44My mother was a great scot.
00:04:46She was a very proud Scot.
00:04:49She was born in the Hebrides,
00:04:52and she was a tremendous woman,
00:04:54and she loved Scotland and Stornoway.
00:04:56She loved Scotland,
00:04:58and I think she'd be very proud of what I've done.
00:05:01I just showed you.
00:05:03If he said, I remind him of his mother.
00:05:07And I think she'd be very proud of what I'm doing.
00:05:09He doesn't care for anything or anybody but himself.
00:05:17He is a child, never grown up.
00:05:22We about five years, just buying bottled water,
00:05:25all because of Trump building the road over the spring.
00:05:32Spectacular for me yesterday to be able to walk
00:05:35the final version of the course with my father to say,
00:05:38this is what will be etched into this land forever.
00:05:46I suppose we've always been close.
00:05:56I was close to my father as well.
00:05:57We had a big family, you know, seven of us.
00:06:01That's Lorna, that's me, that's Noreen,
00:06:05that's Sylvia, that's Evelyn, Walter, and Shereen.
00:06:09She's the youngest, he's the oldest.
00:06:12My mother, well, she stays across here, and that's it.
00:06:16Yeah.
00:06:36I had a phone call a short time ago from Molly Forbes
00:06:41to say that their water supply isn't working again.
00:06:45Is this the, is this the?
00:06:52You're having to take water?
00:07:07Yes.
00:07:08So what's happening?
00:07:09That's from the bottom.
00:07:11Well, I've my, I've my grandson just now.
00:07:17This is the flush toilet.
00:07:19I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
00:07:22Three years after Trump's workers cut off Molly's water supply,
00:07:26she was still collecting water from a nearby stream.
00:07:35I used to go to the barn with a paint pot tied with a rope,
00:07:47and fill it, and then weed up the batter.
00:07:54With the well going dry.
00:07:58All because of Trump.
00:08:06It's a fundamental thing, water.
00:08:08And when you don't have it, it has a knock-on effect psychologically,
00:08:12physically, on your well-being, it's bounty.
00:08:17Molly explained to me she relied on bottled drinking water
00:08:21when the well went dry, which was often.
00:08:24I depend on my son and my relations to give me water.
00:08:30Through in this room.
00:08:34See there's, there's four.
00:08:37Just, just for handiness, you know.
00:08:41We'd never no problem with the water.
00:08:43Till Trump came in the go.
00:08:46They tested, and it was 100% pure water.
00:08:49Have a wash in a basin instead of having a shower,
00:08:53Oh gosh, I wish I could have a shower.
00:08:56Probably the cleanest person I ever knew was my mother.
00:08:59Everything had to be immaculate.
00:09:01Donald, your room is messy, I want it cleaned up immediately.
00:09:05And I look at his place and it's a pigsty.
00:09:07Do I regret that? No, I don't regret it, it's a pigsty.
00:09:10And I think the people of Aberdeen should be embarrassed,
00:09:12and I think frankly the people of Scotland would be embarrassed.
00:09:19The spring Michael and Wally Forbes rely on for their water
00:09:23is on Donald Trump's land.
00:09:29Trump's workers broke the pipe connecting the spring to the Forbes as well
00:09:33when building an access road to the new Trump golf course.
00:09:37At the time, Trump's man in charge said he would fix the pipe and...
00:09:41It'll be the best system he's ever had for supplying water to his house.
00:09:44How's that?
00:09:46But the Forbes say in the years that follow,
00:09:48the water either ran dry completely or was contaminated.
00:09:53Andy Weidman is a member of the Scottish Parliament
00:09:56and Scotland's leading expert on land rights.
00:10:00This well-established legal framework in Scotland,
00:10:03if the water comes from a source that's on somebody else's land,
00:10:07that other landowner is under a legal obligation and duty
00:10:11to maintain that water supply that goes back literally hundreds of years.
00:10:15Give me a golf club.
00:10:17A golf club. Bring a golf club. A driver.
00:10:20Get the two pipers.
00:10:22The trouble with Mr Trump is he seems to have no respect
00:10:26not only for Wally Forbes and his neighbours,
00:10:30but he has no respect for the legal framework,
00:10:34and he's quite content to preside over a situation
00:10:38whereby he is in effect denying a neighbouring landowner
00:10:42of their legitimate supply of fresh water.
00:10:48Now, most people, most ordinary people,
00:10:51are not in a position to be able to take on an American billionaire.
00:11:08All these disturbances about the water and lack of water
00:11:11has an effect on Molly.
00:11:13She gets bronchitis.
00:11:15That's why I'm so slow,
00:11:17because I just lost all my fusion.
00:11:23Lost all my strength.
00:11:25Lost all my strength.
00:11:38It's great to be at Trump Tower.
00:11:40It's great to be in a wonderful city, New York.
00:11:43I am officially running
00:11:47for President of the United States,
00:11:51and we are going to make our country great again.
00:12:07I put out the radio because I feel that it keeps the fox away.
00:12:14I like it to be talking all the time.
00:12:18The American dream is dead.
00:12:22But if I get elected president,
00:12:25I will bring it back,
00:12:28bigger and better and stronger than ever before,
00:12:34and we will make America great again.
00:12:38Thank you. Thank you very much.
00:12:48You can't imagine your mother as being a young girl, you know?
00:12:53It's hard to get into your head, you know?
00:12:55Because when you see her as a young girl, you think, God...
00:13:02Yeah, she was a good-looking lassie at that time, yeah.
00:13:08It was my image of my father.
00:13:10I had the same teeth as him.
00:13:12I had two big teeth in the front.
00:13:15They're gone now.
00:13:17He was a great singer, and he played the fiddle.
00:13:21He was really musical.
00:13:32So I think I was about 13.
00:13:35This picture, do you remember when you told me
00:13:38when you were a dairywoman working with the cows?
00:13:41I remember.
00:13:42Was you about that age then?
00:13:44Yes, well, it was July the year after I was married.
00:13:50I worked as a lawn girl during the war,
00:13:55the Second World War.
00:14:02The war has taken most of the younger men away from Scotland's farms,
00:14:06leaving the farmers without enough help
00:14:08to produce our vital food supplies.
00:14:11Women left jobs which were not essential.
00:14:13I was a dairy cattlewoman.
00:14:16I had 30 dairy cows.
00:14:18And in joining the Scottish Women's Land Army,
00:14:20they have played a great part
00:14:22in helping to make sure of five war harvests.
00:14:28They were very good milkers.
00:14:30The care of animals, particularly for the production of milk,
00:14:34the nation's most vital food, is an all-important job.
00:14:37I think it's how you treat animals that they are happy animals.
00:14:44It's hard to look at something as a commodity,
00:14:47but if it doesn't have any value, say elephants in Africa,
00:14:50they end up destroying people's crops.
00:14:56We've had the conversation before.
00:14:58I personally hate trophy hunters.
00:15:00Why an elephant?
00:15:02Listen, it's just, it's one of those things...
00:15:05There was that article in the New York Times
00:15:08where they said,
00:15:11There was that article in paper with the big game hunting
00:15:14and a picture, I think it was Donald Trump Jr.,
00:15:17with the elephant's tail.
00:15:19It's one of those things, it's a 200-year-old tradition
00:15:22back from the old ivory hunters.
00:15:24It meant possession of the ivories.
00:15:27GUNSHOT
00:15:33GUNSHOT
00:15:39I do a lot of local hunting.
00:15:41I donate a lot of that food to hunters feeding the homeless.
00:15:44I'll take a couple of good cuts that I like.
00:15:49Grab a little breakfast or something
00:15:51and then we'll go up in ten minutes. Sound OK?
00:15:53OK, good.
00:15:55Yeah, I'm fine.
00:15:56Will there be an opportunity to ask questions later, Mr Trump?
00:15:58Yeah, absolutely.
00:15:59As we're walking around? Sure, we'll do that.
00:16:01When I made my first film on the environmental damage
00:16:04caused by Donald Trump's luxury golf course in Scotland,
00:16:08none of the Trumps would speak to me.
00:16:10Real journalists, I want real journalists.
00:16:12They violate the original planning permissions,
00:16:15according to some of the experts.
00:16:17You've heard your question.
00:16:19But when my film was shown on television,
00:16:21that suddenly changed.
00:16:23Your documentary got carried by BBC and others,
00:16:26so you've become a much more important person
00:16:28in terms of doing an interview.
00:16:31Word was also passed down to Donald Jr
00:16:34and I took the first opportunity to ask him about his hunting trips.
00:16:38Hunters are conservationists at heart as well
00:16:40and they're the guys that are actually stroking check.
00:16:43And he told me they cost him a lot of shoes.
00:16:46We're the game rangers and the people who protect it.
00:16:48We always donate shoes and boots and everything like that
00:16:50because these are parts of the world where, as sad as it sounds,
00:16:53owning one shoe is a luxury, two is almost unheard of.
00:16:57All thanks and honour to the land girls...
00:16:59I used to sing to them. ..who are doing this magnificent job.
00:17:02Captain Bonnie, with the brush and comb,
00:17:06teased out their tails.
00:17:12Made them lovely.
00:17:21I will be the greatest jobs president that God ever created.
00:17:27I tell you that.
00:17:30He said he would bring lots of jobs to Scotland.
00:17:34I can't see it because there's very, very few people working here for him.
00:17:39There's one security that runs about all the time
00:17:43and I don't know if there's very few greenkeepers.
00:17:46Where's all these workers? There's hardly any.
00:17:50It's all lies.
00:17:53They all seem to be part-time.
00:17:55The clubhouse and that isn't busy, so he hasn't got that many staff.
00:18:00A couple of chefs and maybe 20 or 30 people.
00:18:05That would be about it, I would say.
00:18:12When this project was kicking off,
00:18:14it was all going to be local jobs, local workers.
00:18:17Donald Trump promised 6,000 jobs
00:18:20at his golf resort near Aberdeen, Scotland,
00:18:23but fewer than 100 are on the payroll.
00:18:26Even the man who allowed Trump to build
00:18:29on the environmentally protected coastline
00:18:32admits that jobs aren't there.
00:18:34Donald's investments in Aberdeenshire are about one-tenth,
00:18:37maybe less than that, of what he originally promised.
00:18:40He doesn't regard these as lies.
00:18:42He regards these as claims which he wants you to believe in,
00:18:46but they're not true.
00:18:48It's a strange world, isn't it?
00:18:51A strange old world.
00:18:53The last person ever I'd put in the White House
00:18:57is Mr Donald Trump.
00:19:03Donald Trump was promising to make America great again.
00:19:08And I wondered if Americans would still vote for him
00:19:12if they knew how he had short-changed the people of Scotland.
00:19:16We need somebody like Donald Trump.
00:19:18So Donald Trump came to Scotland
00:19:20and he wanted to build this luxury golf course on these sand dunes.
00:19:23Molly Forbes, who's now 91 years old,
00:19:26Donald Trump's workers accidentally cut off her water supply
00:19:30when they were building the golf course.
00:19:32And five years on,
00:19:34she's still without a proper, reliable working water supply.
00:19:39She has to fetch the water in this wheelbarrow,
00:19:42take it into these buckets...
00:19:44He should have fixed it.
00:19:46Well, I did have water in the buckets outside for washing up with.
00:19:50So this is bucket water from outside.
00:19:54I use this for washing up and for my wash this morning.
00:19:59You should have fixed it immediately.
00:20:02She shouldn't have to do without anybody.
00:20:06Trump, I feel, is an entrepreneur
00:20:09and he gets his hands in a lot of things and a very intelligent man.
00:20:13And I just have a good wash, you know, like this.
00:20:19Wash myself, have a cloth and soap
00:20:24and wipe it all off and then dry myself.
00:20:30And then you give a sponge down
00:20:33and I have a big basin that I stand in in the shower
00:20:38to have a body wash down.
00:20:41I changed my boat.
00:20:43To delete her services like that, no. No.
00:20:47And if he can do it to her,
00:20:49then I'm quite sure he'll do it to a lot of American people.
00:20:52And this is the man who wants to run your country
00:20:54from that building behind us. Yeah.
00:20:56Would you still vote for him?
00:20:58Probably not, no.
00:21:00They cut it off accidentally.
00:21:02There's no accident. You either do it or you didn't do it.
00:21:05If it was cut off accidentally,
00:21:07why didn't they go back and re-establish it for her?
00:21:10No. No. I can't go with that.
00:21:13It was something intentional because of the fact
00:21:15that she didn't want to sell him the land,
00:21:17so this is a way of getting even with her.
00:21:21I wanted to get some answers from Donald Trump himself.
00:21:25He was about to hold one of his first big rallies
00:21:28in his campaign to be president in the state of Michigan.
00:21:32Now Mr Trump is in Birch Run addressing a sold-out crowd
00:21:35in just under an hour now.
00:21:37When I say Trump, you say Trump!
00:21:39Trump! Trump! Trump!
00:21:41He doesn't speak to women or people of colour or anyone
00:21:46unless you're a rich white male.
00:21:49Not all Mexicans are rapists.
00:21:51Yeah, because...
00:21:52And we're not all thieves. We're hard workers.
00:21:55I've been to Donald Trump's hotel in Atlantic City.
00:21:59Look at all the help. It's all minorities.
00:22:02There was nobody speaking English there.
00:22:06John McCain is not a war hero.
00:22:08He's a war hero.
00:22:09He's a war hero.
00:22:10Five and a half years...
00:22:11He's a war hero because he was captured.
00:22:13I like people like that.
00:22:15He's a war hero because he was captured.
00:22:17I like people that weren't captured, OK?
00:22:19I think that's offensive to all veterans.
00:22:22Like when you look at all the people who are here
00:22:25protesting it, like that's what America looks like?
00:22:28America doesn't look like the people who are in there
00:22:31paying money to go see Donald Trump speak.
00:22:34Some coming from as far away as Grand Rapids,
00:22:36West Michigan or even the metro Detroit area
00:22:38to get just a glimpse of Donald Trump.
00:22:40What about the media attention?
00:22:42Is there a lot of national reporters?
00:22:44We'll pan over here.
00:22:45More than 100 media people who checked in here.
00:22:47At this early stage of the campaign,
00:22:50even Trump seemed surprised he was running.
00:22:54So now let's say it's President Trump.
00:22:56Ladies and gentlemen, President of the United States,
00:23:00Donald J Trump!
00:23:03But the crowd were swept up by his promises.
00:23:07We're going to bring our jobs back.
00:23:09We're going to bring our money back.
00:23:11We're going to save social security.
00:23:13You are going to love President Trump.
00:23:15Thank you very much.
00:23:16There was no chance to question the candidate here,
00:23:19but his supporters were only too happy to sing his praises.
00:23:23I thought he did great.
00:23:25I thought he did great.
00:23:26I'm a Democrat, actually.
00:23:28I've never voted for a Republican in my life,
00:23:30but I'm going to vote for him.
00:23:32I'm a Democrat, actually.
00:23:33I've never voted for a Republican in my life,
00:23:35but I'm going to vote for Donald Trump.
00:23:37He's going to make America great again.
00:23:39You know, he says the things that we all want to say.
00:23:42He doesn't care about political correctness.
00:23:44He doesn't care about other countries.
00:23:45He cares about the United States.
00:23:47We need to all care about the United States.
00:23:49Trump for president, 2016.
00:23:52He still hasn't put the water on for a 90-year-old woman in Scotland.
00:23:56He's going to make my country great again.
00:23:59Maybe the water shouldn't be turned back on for him.
00:24:02There's a filmmaker from Scotland
00:24:04who has been doing documentaries about Donald Trump.
00:24:06As the Trump rally draws to a close,
00:24:08Naira Sharif tells me about another water crisis unfolding nearby
00:24:13in the city of Flint.
00:24:15Their water is discoloured, or it may smell like rotten eggs or sewage.
00:24:20You kept telling us that we could drink this water.
00:24:22So I make the short 20-mile journey from Birch Run to Flint,
00:24:26where I find that anger is boiling over.
00:24:30Flint, run now!
00:24:32I say to you, if you want to be the next president
00:24:35of the United States of America,
00:24:37you better bring your hand up!
00:24:39And we're here to see if we need any water.
00:24:43We're coming in here to make sure that people have water.
00:24:47As the Flint crisis deepens, furious residents protest
00:24:51against the poisoning of their water supply,
00:24:54and politicians of all kinds descend on the city.
00:24:57To help the people of Flint.
00:24:59We need to rebuild our water system.
00:25:02With the exception of one.
00:25:04Donald Trump, he's been missing in action.
00:25:07He hasn't lifted one finger for the people of Flint.
00:25:10And if he's really as rich as he says he is,
00:25:12he'd pull out his chequebook and write a personal cheque
00:25:15for $10 million to help the families of Flint recover.
00:25:19You know, I shouldn't be commenting on Flint.
00:25:21I mean, I know the governor's got a very difficult time going.
00:25:24Governor Snyder, could I just ask you, please,
00:25:26do you insist that the water here in Flint is safe to drink,
00:25:31to bathe and shower in, yet independent scientists
00:25:34are saying exactly the opposite?
00:25:36I wonder why the people of Flint should trust you.
00:25:39We've got a lot of information that filtered water
00:25:41has been determined to be safe for people to drink,
00:25:44except for children through sex and for pregnant women.
00:25:47Politicians getting richer, the babies getting sicker,
00:25:50hair loss, skin rashes, anemia, brain damage,
00:25:53the dementia lesion is, brings me to tears.
00:25:56Are the victims with the symptoms that won't appear two years from now?
00:25:59You know, I shouldn't be commenting on Flint.
00:26:02Back in Scotland, Donald Trump wasn't interested
00:26:05in Molly's water crisis either.
00:26:07Well, we've actually no water at all.
00:26:09There's no water going into the well now.
00:26:13He's behaved despicably towards Molly,
00:26:15he's behaved extremely badly towards other neighbours,
00:26:18and it's shameful and unforgivable.
00:26:20When I've no water, I've no heating.
00:26:23I had no heating two days.
00:26:26It got cooler and cooler until it was cold in the bottom.
00:26:30So I just depend on my electric heater,
00:26:33and it's not the same as the radiators.
00:26:38Earlier, I'd been to see the management
00:26:40of Trump's Scottish golf course
00:26:42in a bid to finally understand
00:26:44why Molly Forbes was still without water.
00:26:47Donald Trump Jr. admitted his workers were responsible
00:26:51for shutting her water off.
00:26:53We think it was because one of the trucks,
00:26:55you know, the pipe goes a long way, it rolls over.
00:26:58A clay pipe was knocked.
00:27:00It's a very serious thing if somebody's water is not working.
00:27:04We take that seriously.
00:27:06We told them, this is what we intend on doing,
00:27:08this is what we intend on building,
00:27:10it's not going to be easy to live here.
00:27:12They knew this was going to happen.
00:27:14We also offered them lifetime use of the facilities.
00:27:19When you discover they've been without water, Mr Trump Jr.,
00:27:22that is down to basic human rights.
00:27:25We did what we could to get that restored as quickly as possible.
00:27:29I knew for a fact that just wasn't true.
00:27:33I'm running out of clothes, clean clothes.
00:27:36Dishes is piling up.
00:27:38You know, you need water.
00:27:40When the Forbes' water supply was first cut off,
00:27:43I went to speak to the man in charge
00:27:45of the Trump building work at the time
00:27:47to find out when it would be restored.
00:27:49He acknowledged nothing much was happening.
00:27:51There's somebody working there now.
00:27:53I do not know what the moment is.
00:27:55Why not?
00:27:56Because we have to investigate it first,
00:27:58so I can't tell you when exactly his water will be back on.
00:28:02You keep mentioning a week. Is that just a term of phrase?
00:28:05Well, he's been without it for a week,
00:28:07so I'm just wondering, does he have to wait another week for it?
00:28:09I don't know.
00:28:10There's the police now.
00:28:11A few minutes later, the police were called.
00:28:13Who called the police?
00:28:14We did. We did.
00:28:15We did.
00:28:18My producer and I were both thrown in jail
00:28:21simply for asking questions about why the Forbes' water supply
00:28:24had been cut off.
00:28:26Is he done?
00:28:27The police obviously had a good reason for doing to you what they did.
00:28:30Donald Trump was the only one who thought so.
00:28:32Give that to me!
00:28:33After a public outcry, the charge was thrown out
00:28:36and the police issued a full apology.
00:28:40I think Trump's created that here.
00:28:42That's disgraceful.
00:28:44Stop doing that to me!
00:28:48But the Forbes' water supply remained a mess.
00:28:51The water was very bad this year.
00:28:54Because this has been going on for so long,
00:28:56I wonder whether you've complained to the Trump organisation about this.
00:29:01Yes.
00:29:03Well, I never went personally,
00:29:06because, well, I'm not really able to get about very much.
00:29:10Well, if the well runs dry, that's it, we've nothing.
00:29:13But Sheila, you know, my daughter-in-law, has been a few times.
00:29:16Once I went up and I was told to get out of her office.
00:29:19We are known for luxury, not taking shortcuts.
00:29:23Why would our known opponent think she knows better about construction
00:29:27than drainage than our engineers and our development team?
00:29:31I'll get out when I get an answer from you.
00:29:33And until then, I'm staying put.
00:29:36This is why I don't answer their letters,
00:29:38because they're just nasty all the time.
00:29:40It wasn't sort of a welcome that I would have expected.
00:29:42We didn't have an opportunity to say hello.
00:29:44I wasn't quite sure what kind of welcome
00:29:46Trump Jr expected Michael Forbes to give him,
00:29:49considering the comments made by Trump Sr.
00:29:52I look at Mr Forbes and his disgusting conditions in which he lives
00:29:56and that people have to look at that.
00:29:58He's got rusty machinery there.
00:30:00If I were him, I'd have been embarrassed,
00:30:02but, you know, that's neither here nor there.
00:30:05This is where it was.
00:30:07That's the marks where his back wheels was.
00:30:09The front wheels was here.
00:30:12And they were standing up there, pointing down to it.
00:30:16If that ever runs again, I'll give him the place.
00:30:18That's what he said.
00:30:20If you can get that operational, I'll give you the golf course.
00:30:23I'd love to see his face when you tell him.
00:30:26With the Forbes' water supply still running dry
00:30:30and Donald Trump Jr. denying there was even a problem,
00:30:34I decided to try again to catch up with his father.
00:30:37Donald Trump is addressing a big rally here in Norfolk tomorrow.
00:30:44And Mr Trump had chosen an appropriate backdrop for his message.
00:30:50I'm Donald Trump!
00:30:52I'm Donald Trump!
00:30:55I'm Donald Trump!
00:31:07So, Geoff, explain to me why you've come to this event today.
00:31:10Just wanted to get a bit of a feel for the place.
00:31:12I'm not going to be able to get a feel for it.
00:31:14I'm not going to be able to get a feel for it.
00:31:16I'm not going to be able to get a feel for it.
00:31:18I think he's different from the others.
00:31:23Not as politically motivated.
00:31:25I think he's more interested in running the country like a business.
00:31:30I think he's telling the American people what they want to hear.
00:31:37Oh, we're getting ready for the Trumps now.
00:31:41Ladies and gentlemen, let's get ready to make America great again.
00:31:46Please welcome the next president of the United States, Donald J. Trump!
00:31:55You just think, oh I think I'll go to church today. It's a feeling.
00:32:06This is wonderful. Oh I see, I'm supposed to be catering to the press.
00:32:10To hell with the press.
00:32:16You meet a lot of people that you know, but you don't see a lot of.
00:32:22I'm going to build a wall, okay? Gonna build it.
00:32:27He fancied a wall around America. To keep out the immigrants.
00:32:31And just one door to let the good ones in.
00:32:37I don't know what kind of mind he's got.
00:32:47When I married Waddy, well, actually when we were seeing each other, his brother was lost.
00:32:56The men and the boys of this parish, whose names are recorded here on this monument.
00:33:03Because they felt a sense of duty.
00:33:06George Dallas Forbes.
00:33:12These are the largest guns ever made in the United States.
00:33:16And we love the Second Amendment, right?
00:33:21Oh, they are big.
00:33:23I don't like thinking about it really.
00:33:26There's too much of it, isn't there? In this day and age.
00:33:36Bill Helvey.
00:33:38William Ford.
00:33:39We are going to build our military so big, and so strong, and so powerful.
00:33:45If I'm elected president, we're going to have so many victories, they're going to be coming out of your ears.
00:33:49You remember that?
00:34:00Mr. Trump, I was just wondering if I could ask you a question about Molly Forbes.
00:34:03I didn't have your permission to come back here. You're supposed to be all the way back here.
00:34:07I need you to go all the way back here.
00:34:09This lady hasn't had any water in Scotland.
00:34:18Mr. Trump, Molly is without any water at all, this weekend in fact.
00:34:23That's five years after your workers cut off her supply.
00:34:33I put up a flag as I was asked, by tripping up Trump, just to put up a flag.
00:34:58That's that bit done.
00:35:00I said, yeah, I'll let you go for that. And I think it pisses off Trump, I love.
00:35:06Yeah, that's why I did it.
00:35:08They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some, I assume, are good people.
00:35:15That's why I decided that we should get up a flag as well.
00:35:19Because he called them rapists and some terrible things.
00:35:22But yet he probably has them working for him.
00:35:24He's supposed to be coming in tomorrow, so we're going down to VALT in order to assist VALT put up a Mexican flag on the fence.
00:35:32Just passing Trump's entryway.
00:35:35Move it your way a wee fraction.
00:35:37He's going to get a shock when he comes in the front gates and sees the huge Mexican flag.
00:35:42At the entrance, he's not going to like that.
00:35:45I would love to be a bird in the tree then and see his reaction.
00:35:50That'll do.
00:35:55If Donald Trump comes out to the driving range today, he's going to see that not all of his Scottish neighbours love him.
00:36:00That neighbour right there flying a Mexican flag in defiance of the wall that Trump wants to build.
00:36:06Yeah, we put the flag up last night.
00:36:08He's threatened to wall in the Mexicans.
00:36:12Well, his wall does send, as you can see from us, banks of earth round about us.
00:36:17So it's a bit of solidarity for the Mexicans more than anything else.
00:36:22There's a definite thing about walls.
00:36:26I mean, I don't want to see the houses, I remember him saying.
00:36:29I don't want to see the houses. Nobody has a problem with it. I guess maybe the people that live in the houses have.
00:36:39I would build a great wall and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me.
00:36:45Where the hell could you go now?
00:36:48How are you going to make them pay for the wall?
00:36:51I will, and the wall just got ten feet taller.
00:37:02I was born in Brooklyn and lived in New York for most of my life.
00:37:06And I came to Scotland particularly because of the beauty and the nature here.
00:37:12It's irreplaceable, the sanding system that's getting destroyed.
00:37:16Then I met the people. I met Sheila, I met Michael.
00:37:20Are you coming in?
00:37:21What a lovely day, it's almost a shame to come in.
00:37:23And I heard their stories first hand.
00:37:25And within two days the water was black and he couldn't understand why the water was getting black.
00:37:30The water was 100% perfect before he came here. So we started digging up everywhere.
00:37:36I realized this is something that goes against basic human rights and it's going on right on my doorstep.
00:37:42This is really a circle of our friends. This was really a celebration of our friends.
00:37:46A celebration of people that supported us.
00:37:51One of the Trump stories Suzanne broke was a secret conflict of interest at the two main newspapers in Aberdeen.
00:37:57So supportive of Donald Trump, they even gave him his own column.
00:38:02Unknown to readers, however, the editor was secretly engaged to the spokesperson for Trump's golf course.
00:38:10The point is you can't have a newspaper running glowing pieces singing the praises of Donald Trump
00:38:15without telling the people who are buying your newspaper
00:38:18Maybe just we'll say a few words here. Let's talk about it.
00:38:22that your wife gets money from Donald Trump.
00:38:24If this is true, you're going to be in big trouble.
00:38:28That your wife gets money from Donald Trump.
00:38:30If this isn't a clear conflict of interest, I really don't know what is.
00:38:34You can just go slightly this way. That's good. Perfect. That's good. Just like that.
00:38:38Quebec segment tonight banning Donald Trump.
00:38:41Early next week Parliament will actually debate a measure that would bar Mr Trump from entering Great Britain.
00:38:48Then Kelly started a campaign that caught the world's attention.
00:38:52And on the phone from Aberdeen, Scotland, Suzanne Kelly, who began the petition.
00:38:57So the comments are not there by Trump to promote hate.
00:39:02It's his policy that he's trying to get out. Do you understand that?
00:39:06I'd like you to understand some of his other comments.
00:39:09He said that the relatives of anybody involved in terrorism should be taken out.
00:39:14I assume he's not talking about dinner and a show.
00:39:17I'm thinking here's Donald Trump. He's walking around. He's slandering every nationality, every racial group there is.
00:39:25And then when I saw Donald Trump physically mocking a disabled New York Times reporter.
00:39:31You got to see this guy. I don't know what I said. I don't remember.
00:39:35That was the catalyst for me and I decided I'm not having any more of this.
00:39:39The question is, is what he has been saying classified as hate speech?
00:39:43More than 200,000 Brits now want the man himself banned from the UK.
00:39:50I thought maybe 10,000 people at most, if I worked really hard, would sign it.
00:39:56All because over half a million people signed this petition.
00:39:59It was at the time the fastest growing petition ever.
00:40:02Later today, the tables will be turned when MPs will have their say.
00:40:07Well, there was this petition basically, which gathered a huge amount of momentum.
00:40:11This ridiculous individual, that is Mr Trump, may be elected as president of the United States.
00:40:20His policy to close borders, if he is elected as president, is bonkers.
00:40:26In the end, the petition wasn't passed and Donald Trump was allowed back into Britain for his golf course photo op.
00:40:33The neighbours weren't invited.
00:40:35It's a bit over the top, two security guys at the gate there.
00:40:40I suppose I'll be by invitation only, everybody that's there.
00:40:44I don't think any outsiders will be allowed.
00:40:49I drive into the same spot I was arrested over five years ago.
00:40:53You have been detained under section 14 of criminal proceedings.
00:40:56The police has taken their side ever since all this came into go.
00:40:59But now, they're never away from the place.
00:41:01Of course, the taxpayer's paying for that, not Trump.
00:41:04No longer in Donald Trump's good books, I wasn't invited either.
00:41:09What I was asking, officer, is it OK if I go and speak to him?
00:41:12Just clarify.
00:41:14I was told you're not supposed to be here, you know that?
00:41:16But I'm filming.
00:41:17You're not on the list. You're not invited.
00:41:19We're not on the list.
00:41:20We're not on the list.
00:41:22We're not on the list.
00:41:24What we're talking about here again is the police standing up to protect the interests of private business and individuals.
00:41:28Six plus a sniffer dog.
00:41:31And I just wonder who's paying the overtime for them.
00:41:34What is the reason for having this line here?
00:41:36So that we don't go over the hill to the clubhouse,
00:41:38so that we can't go and make our presence known to the vast amount of media
00:41:42who are there to welcome Donald Trump to Scotland.
00:41:45The residents here have shown tremendous courage in the way they've stood up to
00:41:50Trump's bullying and, frankly, abusive behaviour to them.
00:41:55The house down there, which is proudly flying a Mexican flag today.
00:41:59Press wants to talk to me.
00:42:01The radio wants to talk to me.
00:42:03But I stopped doing that because it just keeps him in the limelight, you know.
00:42:13I'm just nearly interested.
00:42:16I just...
00:42:18I don't pay any attention now.
00:42:20As Donald Trump arrives, he claims victory over both his Republican rivals and his Scottish neighbours.
00:42:26Most neighbours love us.
00:42:29I have one or two that are a little contentious, which is fine, because they lost.
00:42:33It's like some of the people I beat in the primaries, they're not exactly in love with me.
00:42:37Well, I have one or two neighbours that we beat and they're not exactly in love with me.
00:42:41Oh, dear.
00:42:43I don't want to be bothered.
00:42:46Trump is going to win and the world is going to be a happy place again, OK?
00:42:50Humpty Dumpty. I see somebody with a Humpty Dumpty sign.
00:42:53There's a protest with the Mexican flags.
00:42:56And I went down to have a look.
00:42:59I was told that I didn't get down because I was too nosy.
00:43:04Since my arrest, the Trump organisation has continued to use the police to target those they consider enemies.
00:43:11During the presidential campaign, the tactic reaches ludicrous new heights.
00:43:15I have never done a deliberate criminal act in my life.
00:43:20Rowan Betts is a retired social worker who lives in a lighthouse not far from the Trump golf course.
00:43:26I just feel it's so important that we look after our natural heritage.
00:43:32I do my best through voluntary work to repay the damage that I've done.
00:43:39She once took part in a march in support of the Forbes family.
00:43:44Perhaps it was that which put her on the Trump radar.
00:43:48I don't even have so much of a speeding ticket.
00:43:51Until now, apparently.
00:43:54I'd looked at the clock and it was ten o'clock.
00:43:57I opened the door and there were two policemen standing there.
00:44:01My first thought was, I don't know what to do.
00:44:06My first thought was they'd lost their way.
00:44:11I didn't think for one minute they were coming to see me.
00:44:15I mean, I just panicked. I thought something had happened to one of my children.
00:44:19And I still have that... I can still remember me standing at the door feeling that way.
00:44:25And I just started to shake and say to them, what is it? What is it?
00:44:30What's happened?
00:44:32I cannot explain why police would turn up late at night and charge her with urinating in sand dunes.
00:44:41I simply cannot explain that.
00:44:47I was not on the fairway at all.
00:44:50I was within the dune system that's closest to the shoreline.
00:44:54And as we walked back, an estate vehicle came towards us.
00:44:58Out of the passenger side jumped a man with a camera.
00:45:04It was like they were being followed, you know, stalked.
00:45:07Unknown to her, she was being filmed.
00:45:09That's the officers. They're the ones that came at night.
00:45:13They said that they could go straight to charge because they had enough evidence.
00:45:19It just struck me as such a ridiculous thing for the police to be doing at the behest of Trump International.
00:45:29This was a diesel tank, yes.
00:45:33She's all rotten here, look.
00:45:39And there's usually a lot of parts that could fit other parts, you know, other machines.
00:45:44Come on, Anthony.
00:45:45In the spring we'll take you to his junkyard.
00:45:47What crop is this?
00:45:48It's a corn crop.
00:45:49It's a corn crop.
00:45:50It's a corn crop.
00:45:51It's a corn crop.
00:45:52It's a corn crop.
00:45:53It's a corn crop.
00:45:54It's a corn crop.
00:45:55It's a corn crop.
00:45:56It's a corn crop.
00:45:57What crop does he grow?
00:45:58Not in his house, but off to the side and other parts of his land.
00:46:02He's got rusty machinery there.
00:46:04I'm a farmer down in Texas and these things, this is not an area that he's using for scrap to fix up another tractor.
00:46:10It's just in this shed here.
00:46:14This is a bonnet for it.
00:46:16Once I've finished repairing it.
00:46:20This is an old tractor. It's been there for 35 years.
00:46:24Trump said he'd give me the place if it ever runs again.
00:46:29If you can get that operation, I'll give you the golf course.
00:46:33You have to hunt about and get other parts, you know.
00:46:36Like the steering wheel I bought out of eBay.
00:46:40This front dash panel my son got for me.
00:46:44The lift arm, this one here I found by the road.
00:46:47The leveling screw, I still need it to finish it off there.
00:46:51Apart from how much it runs, it goes.
00:46:55So, Mr. Trump, what do you say to that?
00:47:08I've been looking for a tractor for 35 years and never turned a wheel.
00:47:13I used to do up a lot of tractors way back when I was younger.
00:47:17And I kind of lost interest until Trump opened his big mouth again.
00:47:21Look at Mr. Forbes and his disgusting conditions in which he lives.
00:47:25And it's about time that somebody spoke out.
00:47:28If you can get that operation, I'll give you the golf course.
00:47:42Take it over like a watch.
00:48:12The idea that someone makes a verbal commitment is in Scots law contract.
00:48:18I'll take the place but not in debt.
00:48:28How many letters are there, Sheila?
00:48:30Oh, God, I've no idea.
00:48:34After getting the tractor back on the road,
00:48:37Michael and his wife, Sheila,
00:48:39show me some of the thousands of letters he's received from around the world.
00:48:45Says to the post there, says, how do you know it's mine?
00:48:48And he says, of course, it's yours.
00:49:05When your letters started, you thought you were going to get nasty letters, but no.
00:49:08No, I didn't. I really didn't.
00:49:10No, never had one.
00:49:13When all this started off here, I got a few letters from America
00:49:18saying never do any dealings with this man.
00:49:23Because nobody trusts him in America.
00:49:26Now, if that's the type of people it's writing to me,
00:49:30why would people like that vote for somebody they couldn't trust, you know?
00:49:37I just can't get my head around that one.
00:49:39What the hell is going on?
00:49:42The Republican National Convention.
00:49:44You've got to pick somebody who's going to be a great president.
00:49:46To help Michael get his head around it,
00:49:48I suggest he and Sheila go out to the Republican National Convention.
00:49:52Yes, the first time I've ever been out of Britain.
00:49:56I was all for it because I thought, well, he doesn't go anywhere, you know?
00:50:02He just... I work, work, works at home, which he enjoys.
00:50:08But I thought, it's a nice break for you and a nice change.
00:50:15This is the kilt that my niece made for me.
00:50:19Lorena Burns is her name.
00:50:21It's Forbes Tartan pattern, what they call muted.
00:50:24They tell me there's about 57 different types of Forbes Tartan.
00:50:29This will be only the second time worn when we go over to Ohio.
00:50:37Are you parked?
00:50:39Half, half parked.
00:50:41You're half parked.
00:50:42The other concern that police have
00:50:44are that people are going to come here carrying their guns.
00:50:47Oh, that's a nice one. I like this.
00:50:49Oh, aye, it looks fine, this kilt.
00:50:52That's three kilts he has now.
00:50:54Just a job.
00:50:56For months, the focus of law enforcement here
00:50:59has been on the prospects of organized protest.
00:51:02Black lives matter!
00:51:04Anti-Trumpers trying to disrupt this convention
00:51:07and Trump supporters exhibiting some of the rough edges
00:51:10that they have at rallies.
00:51:13MUSIC
00:51:24I've sent myself what a long, bloody flight this is.
00:51:27LAUGHTER
00:51:34We made it. We made it.
00:51:36It's Tuesday, July 19th.
00:51:38We're live again from Cleveland
00:51:40at the site of the Republican National Convention along with Joe.
00:51:44So I know this is your first time in Cleveland
00:51:47and right now you're at our public square.
00:51:49The Terminal Tower was our tallest building
00:51:52so it's very historical for our city.
00:51:55Cleveland was so excited when it got the RNC
00:51:58and then as time passed
00:52:00and it was starting to look like Donald Trump
00:52:02was going to be the GOP candidate,
00:52:04things changed fast.
00:52:06I think Cleveland got really scared
00:52:09at the prospect of Donald Trump being the candidate
00:52:13and what that would bring to our city.
00:52:19I'm here with a gentleman
00:52:21who very much understands firsthand
00:52:24the impacts of Donald Trump becoming our next president.
00:52:27Lord knows what could happen.
00:52:29He's welcome to run his business however he wants
00:52:32but he should not be representing any of us.
00:52:37See, they look after the people here for water.
00:52:39Not like Trump back in Scotland, cutting off my water.
00:52:42Hi, President Obama.
00:52:44How are you?
00:52:45There was people going about with guns in their back, loaded rifles.
00:52:48He's allowed to have a gun out like that? That is insane.
00:52:52I don't think that was right. That should never happen.
00:52:58So they're like some religious right group
00:53:02and then these women, I think, are for abortion
00:53:06and trying to counter their protest.
00:53:10I see Donald Trump lining the road there.
00:53:12Donald Trump is a consummate executive
00:53:15trained through a lifetime of executive decision-making
00:53:18in the school of hard knocks.
00:53:20Makes him supremely qualified to become
00:53:22the next president of the United States.
00:53:25He's supremely qualified to become
00:53:27the chief executive of our nation.
00:53:29How do you feel about his environmental policies?
00:53:34Right now, I don't think he has an environmental policy.
00:53:37Brainwashing him, the same as he did in Scotland.
00:53:39That's what he's doing.
00:53:41I've heard it all before, it's the same thing over and over again
00:53:44how great everything is going to be, you know,
00:53:46because Trump's in charge.
00:53:48And it never happens. It never happens.
00:53:51There's a media-driven storyline inside the campaign right now.
00:53:56That said, it is striking, as you noted,
00:53:59the similarities between Michelle Obama's speech
00:54:01and between Melania Trump's speech.
00:54:03From a young age, my parents impressed on me
00:54:07Barack and I were raised with so many of
00:54:10the values
00:54:11the same values
00:54:13that you work hard for what you want in life.
00:54:16You work hard for what you want in life.
00:54:18That your work is your bond.
00:54:20That your word is your bond.
00:54:22And you do what you say.
00:54:23That wouldn't surprise me normally. Not at all.
00:54:26I'm surprised Trump hasn't nicked anybody's speeches.
00:54:29He's saying it's a storyline that's been put out there by the Clinton campaign.
00:54:33Signs he's right, yeah.
00:54:34Signs right enough.
00:54:40All the way back when all this started
00:54:42I got my first letter from Texas.
00:54:44And that was my favourite.
00:54:46Don't have no dealings with him
00:54:48unless the money is in the bank first.
00:54:51And that's when my eyes opened to Trump.
00:54:59Aye, that's me leg it.
00:55:01Jesus.
00:55:03I haven't seen anybody wearing anything.
00:55:05But there's plenty of stalls.
00:55:10Why the hell do they need that?
00:55:12If I was a taxpayer here I'd be asking questions.
00:55:19So this is Donald Trump before the election.
00:55:22And this is Donald after the election.
00:55:27Ten.
00:55:28No, no, dollars.
00:55:30No, no.
00:55:32Make laughter in Scotland with it.
00:55:35Oh, Aberdeen, that's near the golf course.
00:55:41What a difference
00:55:43between crooked Hillary Clinton
00:55:46and Mike Pence.
00:55:51Mike Pence
00:55:53will never be afraid to speak
00:55:55the name of our enemy.
00:55:57Radical Islam.
00:56:07What I did for New York
00:56:10Donald Trump will do for America.
00:56:14The letters that I had had over the years
00:56:17I would have said that he had no chance.
00:56:19But of course a lot of people said that as well.
00:56:22He landed just a short time ago
00:56:24roughly about 18 minutes
00:56:26at Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland.
00:56:28So coming down with his Trump plane
00:56:31and then he's going to be whistled off from the airport
00:56:33on the Trump helicopter.
00:56:35I'm from Oklahoma. I grew up in New York.
00:56:38And I would be interested in you telling me
00:56:41what was your experience.
00:56:43He came to build a golf course
00:56:45next door to me.
00:56:47He ruined all the dunes, sand dunes.
00:56:49Protected.
00:56:51He ruined them all.
00:56:52Bulldozed them all flat.
00:56:54And then he built his own manicured crap.
00:56:58I wouldn't sell up.
00:57:00So he put his bullies onto me.
00:57:02All his security people.
00:57:05I got hassled for months and months and months.
00:57:07He ruined my water.
00:57:09And that's my experience with Donald Trump.
00:57:11I find that from my knowledge of him
00:57:15to be unusual.
00:57:19And when I get to see him and speak to him
00:57:24I'll ask him about that on your behalf, Michael.
00:57:27I'll be fine, yes.
00:57:28Because...
00:57:29He'll just tell you lies anyway.
00:57:30That's all he does is tell lies.
00:57:32That I don't know.
00:57:34I know that personally that's not been my experience.
00:57:38And I understand you're telling me that that's your experience.
00:57:41But what I would like to do on your behalf
00:57:45is to find out what happened.
00:57:47He called me a pig?
00:57:49He called my place a pigsty?
00:57:51I will find a way to speak to him
00:57:54and see what happened there.
00:57:56I know he'll just tell you lies anyway.
00:57:58I don't know the answer to that.
00:58:00I know I'm a seeker of truth.
00:58:02MSNBC Live, remaining here on the site
00:58:04of the Republican National Convention.
00:58:07There you have Donald Trump's helicopter.
00:58:09Originally Donald Trump was the last one on my list
00:58:12that I would vote for.
00:58:13However, since he's become the nominee
00:58:16I've studied up on him.
00:58:18The next Trump supporter Michael meets
00:58:20is controversial pastor Tom Vinyard
00:58:23from Oklahoma City.
00:58:25His church encourages everyone to own guns.
00:58:28I preach that God loves everyone.
00:58:33And is on a hate list for its position on gay rights.
00:58:36Homosexuals account for half the murders in large cities.
00:58:40I was in Zaire, I was in Congo, and I was in Ivory Coast.
00:58:44I was in three different civil wars.
00:58:46The last eight years have been terrible
00:58:48for the United States of America.
00:58:50Do you think Trump's going to help that?
00:58:52I think he will.
00:58:53I think he'll make it work.
00:58:54My experience with Donald Trump was...
00:58:56Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to Cleveland
00:59:00the next President of the United States,
00:59:03Mr. Donald J. Trump!
00:59:06I'm going to need to go.
00:59:08It's nice meeting you.
00:59:10God bless you.
00:59:11Thank you.
00:59:14He's a real Trump supporter.
00:59:17I said to him, I said,
00:59:18you're scraping the bottom of the barrel now.
00:59:22That was it.
00:59:30I've never been aboard a submarine before.
00:59:32I like the sea.
00:59:33My whole family's been to sea.
00:59:35As delegates scramble to catch a glimpse of their new leader,
00:59:39Michael makes an unexpected discovery,
00:59:42an historic Navy vessel that turns out to have a personal meaning.
00:59:46My middle name's named after my Uncle George.
00:59:48Whenever I saw the submarine, I had to go aboard it,
00:59:51because he was on the submarines during the war.
00:59:53It's good, that. I like that.
00:59:56My Uncle, he joined the Navy when he was 15,
01:00:00and then he joined the submarine service on the unbeaten.
01:00:05And he was coming home from a special mission,
01:00:08went through the Bay of Biscay,
01:00:10and one of our own planes bombed it,
01:00:13and it was lost with all hands.
01:00:15George Dallas Forbes, Malmedy.
01:00:18George Dallas Forbes, Malmedy.
01:00:22Tom carries two types of torpedoes,
01:00:25the 22-foot, three-thousand-pound March 14,
01:00:28which can go over 50 miles per hour for over two miles.
01:00:34Enemy plane approaching fast. Downscope. Dive, dive.
01:00:38I was just thinking about the men I'd have to put up with, you know,
01:00:41especially underwater and being depth-charged and things like that
01:00:45in a wee pipe.
01:00:48My Uncle was on board the unbeaten, you know, in World War II,
01:00:53and they were lost with all hands.
01:00:56Sorry to hear that. Yeah.
01:00:58My Uncle was on a minesweeper,
01:01:00and they went down during the Second World War. Yeah, yeah.
01:01:03My dad's brother, Chris. Mm-hm.
01:01:05How many men was aboard?
01:01:07Ninety-seven. Yeah.
01:01:09Six to ten officers,
01:01:11enlisted men anywhere between 65 to maybe 80.
01:01:15Yeah. Depending on the war patrol.
01:01:20Good evening. I'm Donald Trump Jr.
01:01:24I'm the... Thank you.
01:01:28And the son of a great man.
01:01:31I look at Mr Forbes and his disgusting conditions in which he lives
01:01:35and that people have to look at that.
01:01:38Mr Forbes is not a man
01:01:41that people in Scotland should be proud of.
01:01:43I've always said to people,
01:01:45whatever comes out of his mouth, reverse it.
01:01:47And that's the truth.
01:01:49Because you can't tell the truth.
01:01:53Please welcome United States Senator Ted Cruz of Texas.
01:01:58It was electric in the wall last night.
01:02:00Stand and speak and vote your conscience.
01:02:04Vote for candidates up and down the ticket
01:02:07who you trust to defend our freedom
01:02:10and to be faithful to the Constitution.
01:02:23I appreciate the enthusiasm of the New York delegation.
01:02:27It's hard for us to judge, because not being a farmer...
01:02:30It's only a small farm, just what we call a croft in Scotland.
01:02:34It's about 23 acres.
01:02:36We live in a suburban area.
01:02:38Many people who have been long-time residents
01:02:41don't necessarily feel safe anymore.
01:02:44And you think Trump's the man for that job?
01:02:46Absolutely.
01:02:47He cut our pipe coming from our spring to our well.
01:02:50I see.
01:02:51And that's the man you're voting for, eh?
01:02:53And he didn't care.
01:02:54Is it difficult to have neighbours sometimes?
01:02:57You're eight years under an administration
01:03:00that is just oppressive.
01:03:02Yeah.
01:03:03So you have your problems.
01:03:05Yeah.
01:03:07I know, I know.
01:03:08If we go up to Trump, they get the police on to us.
01:03:12Trump and the police are like that.
01:03:14Always have been, since Trump came to Scotland.
01:03:17You're fighting what you consider a big machine there.
01:03:20Yeah, yeah.
01:03:21We know, we have Hillary Clinton as our opposition.
01:03:23We know what it's like to fight a big machine.
01:03:25And that's not easy.
01:03:26We think that Donald Trump is our answer.
01:03:29Best of luck with him.
01:03:30Thank you.
01:03:32I really don't know much about him
01:03:34on his personal business level and what he does.
01:03:37But I will say this.
01:03:38I think people are just fed up.
01:03:40They're done.
01:03:41And for me as a businessman,
01:03:42I believe it's the private sector that's going to move in
01:03:45and put this country back on track.
01:03:48I want to see our borders sealed once and for all.
01:03:51That's huge for me too.
01:03:53So I say shut down immigration totally.
01:03:55Temporarily, but shut it down totally.
01:03:58Number two,
01:03:59I want every single individual in this country identified.
01:04:02Well, I think I feel sorry for this America
01:04:06because of Donald Trump.
01:04:08If he is elected, I think it'll be nothing but wars
01:04:12because he can't keep his mouth shut.
01:04:14He's going to have to change his tone
01:04:15as the leader of the free world,
01:04:16and he is the face of the United States of America.
01:04:22When he first came to Scotland,
01:04:24it's a bit like America here.
01:04:26Half of Scotland was for Trump.
01:04:29The other half wasn't.
01:04:30But now you'll find that nothing's happened with what he said.
01:04:34So now about 90% of Scotland hates him.
01:04:38I can see the same thing happening here.
01:04:46Very interested to hear what Donald Trump will say.
01:04:49And everyone is asking, what's he going to do?
01:04:51I mean, what are they going to shoot him out of a cannon?
01:04:53Ivanka is going to introduce him, his daughter.
01:04:56Your greatest, your truest, and your most talented.
01:04:59His daughter will be getting a new house tomorrow?
01:05:01Yeah.
01:05:02She's talking to all the people of America.
01:05:05We know how you suffer, blah, blah, blah.
01:05:07Yeah.
01:05:08As if she cares.
01:05:10My father not only has the strength and ability necessary
01:05:14to be our next president,
01:05:16but also the kindness and compassion
01:05:19that will enable him to be the leader that this country needs.
01:05:23My father.
01:05:24And our next president,
01:05:26Donald J. Trump.
01:05:53USA. USA. USA.
01:05:58Friends, delegates, and fellow Americans,
01:06:03I humbly and gratefully accept your nomination
01:06:10for the presidency of the United States.
01:06:14We will be a country of generosity and warmth.
01:06:19And millions of new jobs, and trillions in new jobs.
01:06:30I couldn't stand his lies no more.
01:06:33And that's the truth, yeah.
01:06:37Never heard so much bullshit in all my life.
01:06:39I have joined the political arena
01:06:42so that the powerful can no longer beat up
01:06:46on people who cannot defend themselves.
01:06:53Did you build your house in the middle of the golf course?
01:06:55No, no. Our house was there long before he ever heard of the place.
01:06:58He tried to do a compulsory purchase on us.
01:07:00You know, that means get the government to buy the house for him.
01:07:04You know?
01:07:05He ruined all the dunes, the sand dunes,
01:07:07and built his golf course.
01:07:09And now he's struggling to get golfers.
01:07:12So it's just an empty course?
01:07:13People don't come and play?
01:07:14More or less, yeah.
01:07:15Because of all the bad press?
01:07:16Yeah, yeah.
01:07:17That's great.
01:07:18I'm actually starstruck.
01:07:19Yeah?
01:07:20No, no.
01:07:21No, it's incredible.
01:07:22This is an actually incredible thing.
01:07:23You stood up to it fully.
01:07:24That's incredible.
01:07:25Yeah, yeah.
01:07:26Okay, ready?
01:07:27Got it.
01:07:28Thank you.
01:07:29Again, you left me hanging two times.
01:07:30You did not hug.
01:07:32Don't do hugs.
01:07:37Okay, all right.
01:07:38That's a hard no.
01:07:39That's a hard no.
01:07:41But the real challenge that he had tonight was a lot of imagination.
01:07:45Can people imagine him in the Oval Office?
01:07:50Everything that comes out of his mouth is,
01:07:52I'm the greatest, like Muhammad Ali.
01:07:54You know?
01:07:55That's probably where he got it from.
01:07:57Stole it from, I should say.
01:07:59I'm going to do the greatest thing.
01:08:00I'm going to build the greatest golf course.
01:08:02I'm going to build the greatest God knows what.
01:08:05You know?
01:08:06And everybody thinks this is great.
01:08:08It never happens.
01:08:10It never happens.
01:08:17The blood on our bodies represent the unborn lives
01:08:20lost since this crisis began,
01:08:23from poison water and the lives that won't be realized
01:08:27because of the damage to our bodies.
01:08:29This area is a crime scene.
01:08:32Republican nomination in hand,
01:08:34Donald Trump finally makes a belated trip to the water crisis in Flint.
01:08:38But things don't go quite according to plan.
01:08:40I just don't want to see him here.
01:08:42Hillary Clinton supported NAFTA.
01:08:44Everything she touched didn't work out.
01:08:46Nothing.
01:08:47Now Hillary Clinton...
01:08:48Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we did.
01:08:52Not to give a political speech.
01:08:56Not once since the beginning of his campaign
01:08:59has Trump addressed the crisis.
01:09:01Now that we are less than two months from election day,
01:09:05he is coming to our city to attempt to pivot his message,
01:09:08and we won't stand for it.
01:09:10A short visit and out with a wave.
01:09:12And for the most part, here in Flint, a boom.
01:09:18Flint, of course, isn't the only place
01:09:20where I find Trump and water just don't mix.
01:09:25After five years without a safe and reliable water supply,
01:09:29Michael Forbes decides to take matters into his own hands.
01:09:33This means digging up Trump's access road and risking arrest.
01:09:37There was three of them up here last Saturday.
01:09:40All day, the whole day.
01:09:43It was really hard, hard digging.
01:09:46The security people sat there watching me do it
01:09:49all the time I was here for three days.
01:09:51What Michael finds contradicts what the Trump organisation
01:09:55have been saying for half a decade.
01:09:57We did what we could to get that restored as quickly as possible.
01:10:00It'll be the best system he's ever had for supplying water to his house.
01:10:03How's that? Best system he's ever had for supplying water to his house.
01:10:07This is the pipe here that I dug up from the well.
01:10:10When I followed it to see where it was blocked,
01:10:13they'd put in this plastic piece here
01:10:16and then they'd backfilled it with big stones,
01:10:19like four-inch stones, in there.
01:10:22Trump's workers had not fully repaired the broken connection
01:10:25between the well and the spring.
01:10:27According to Michael, this left an open pipe
01:10:30that allowed dirty road water to pour into their water supply.
01:10:34That's what we've been drinking off the road,
01:10:38oily, sludgy water, for five years.
01:10:43It was sludge, like black water.
01:10:47I don't know what it was.
01:10:49It looked like a sort of oily stuff.
01:10:52Michael cleaned out the tank and he said it was about that of sludge in it.
01:10:56Just filthy water we were drinking.
01:10:59After digging up the road, Michael installs a new section of pipe,
01:11:03finally connecting the spring to the well
01:11:06for the first time in five years.
01:11:27No sooner has the fresh water been turned back on
01:11:31than Michael and Sheila receive a letter from the Trump organisation.
01:11:35We require to be notified by you
01:11:39as to when and what work will be undertaken on our land.
01:11:47Well, that's a very intimidating response.
01:11:51So, I mean, that's just another example
01:11:53of the way in which he conducts himself
01:11:56to people who have crossed his path.
01:12:02One woman who crossed Donald Trump's path was Vera Coking.
01:12:07Vera Coking was an elderly woman
01:12:09who had been living in the United States
01:12:12Her story has an uncanny resemblance to Molly's, but American style.
01:12:17Donald Trump wanted Vera's home
01:12:20so he could put in limousine parking
01:12:23for his casino across the street.
01:12:26In Scotland, Trump wanted rid of several houses.
01:12:30Vera, I want to get rid of that house.
01:12:33I want to get rid of that house.
01:12:37He's no time for ordinary people.
01:12:40He's too much concerned about making dollars himself.
01:12:46He doesn't have no heart, that man.
01:12:48The only thing he has is what he's worried about himself.
01:12:53And it's important, I think, to remember that they are living
01:12:56in a world where they are not alone.
01:12:59They are not alone.
01:13:01They are not alone.
01:13:03And it's important, I think, to remember that they are living
01:13:06not just with the impact of what Trump did to them,
01:13:10but living in the full knowledge
01:13:12that Trump may also be planning things behind their backs.
01:13:15We dealt with our objectors very harshly
01:13:19and we will continue to be very strong
01:13:24to anybody that stands in our way.
01:13:28We're up in North Carolina.
01:13:30We're up in many, many polls nationwide.
01:13:33The Los Angeles Times says it's up six points.
01:13:36And we're up in...
01:13:42Only eight weeks before the presidential election,
01:13:45the Forbes receive an alarming letter from the local government.
01:13:49Surely they won't be so stupid as to try again.
01:13:51It's the new master plan for the area.
01:13:54It's obvious on the plan there.
01:13:56It's all in red. My place has nothing marked off, you know?
01:13:59So they must be claiming this is Trump's place.
01:14:02It revives memories of the first time Donald Trump
01:14:05tried to force residents out of their homes
01:14:08to build hundreds of millionaire houses.
01:14:20Donald Trump denied that he had sought compulsory purchase orders
01:14:25over their land.
01:14:27It subsequently transpired that he had made those applications
01:14:31and he lied.
01:14:37Eminent domain is absolutely... It's a necessity.
01:14:43I feel like we're almost the enemy here with this big gate up
01:14:47and walls around us.
01:14:49I think it's absolutely disgraceful what's happened to us here.
01:14:52I've taken it badly because we've been here 36 years.
01:14:57HE SINGS
01:15:05My paradise sign, it was all flaked with the sun,
01:15:10so I rubbed it down.
01:15:12I sandpapered it.
01:15:15Very careful to not touch the paradise.
01:15:18I'm not finished with it.
01:15:20I still do rub it down with a very fine sandpaper,
01:15:26really very fine, and then varnish it.
01:15:29So it looks fine now.
01:15:33So he says we're all right now for water.
01:15:40Didn't have any pears last year.
01:15:42I'm quite lucky this year with lovely pears.
01:15:47We really depend on water.
01:15:53Of course, everybody does.
01:15:55You just don't know the amount of water you need
01:15:58when you haven't got it.
01:16:00We're quiet living folk.
01:16:02We're not like him.
01:16:55MUSIC PLAYS
01:16:57MUSIC CONTINUES
01:17:23You kept telling us that we could drink this water.
01:17:26We really did.
01:17:28MUSIC CONTINUES
01:17:56MUSIC CONTINUES
01:18:26Officials are urging residents to be patient.
