Another Donald Trump owned golf course has been vandalised, only a matter of days after Trump Turnberry was subject to significant damage.
Trump International Golf Links at Doonbeg is the latest course to fall victim to Pro-Palestine protestors, after two greens were dug up and Palestine flags were planted on the course.
According to the Irish Independent, three individuals entered the course, shortly after the US president met with Taoiseach Micheál Martin in Washington.
In a statement released to the newspaper, officials for the Trump organisation described the acts as “childish and criminal.”

“This was a childish, criminal act but the incredible team at Trump Doonbeg will ensure it does not impact business,” the statement said.
“We have the greatest course anywhere in the world and we are so proud of the tremendous success and we look forward to a great season ahead.”
Despite the damage, the manager of the Doonbeg resort, Joe Russell, said the course would be back to business as usual for the weekend and that damage was “minimal.”
However, despite damage being minimal, Irish police are looking into the incident, which is believed to have taken place between 5pm and midnight on March 12.
In a statement, they said: “Investigating Gardai are appealing for any witnesses to this incident come forward.

“In particular, they are appealing to anyone who was in the West Clare area between approximately 5pm and midnight, and that may have video footage including dash-cam, to make this available to them.”
The attack comes just a few days after significant damage to Trump Turnberry, where a group called Palestine Action took to the course, damaging several greens and smothering the clubhouse in red paint. As of yet, the group haven’t claimed credit for this latest attack.
