  • On the day Donald Trump is sworn in as US president for the second time we look back at his mother, Mary Anne MacLeod, who was born and brought up on the Hebridean island of Lewis but emigrated to New York to live a very different life.

The article from AOL discusses Donald Trump's connection to his mother's homeland, the Isle of Lewis in Scotland. Mary Anne MacLeod, Trump's mother, was born on this remote Scottish island, which has a population of just over 6,000. Despite Trump's frequent visits to Scotland, particularly to his golf courses, he has not visited the Isle of Lewis. The article highlights the cultural and familial ties Trump has to Scotland, mentioning his mother's journey from a humble background to America, where she met and married Fred Trump. It also touches on the local sentiments about Trump, with some residents feeling a sense of pride in the connection, while others are less enthusiastic. The piece reflects on how Trump's Scottish heritage has influenced his identity and public persona, although he has not embraced this part of his heritage as visibly as his Scottish business ventures.
