US presidential hopeful Donald Trump has said it is a "great thing" that the people of the UK have "taken back their country" in voting to leave the EU.
His comments came as he arrived at Trump Turnberry for the reopening of the refurbished Open venue golf resort.
Mr Trump added his name to the Ayrshire hotel and golf course after buying the resort for an undisclosed fee in 2014.
Comedian Simon Brodkin later disrupted Mr Trump's news conference by waving golf balls with a swastika on them.
The presumptive Republican nominee was also the subject of a small protest by those who accuse him of "racism and bigotry" during his bid for the presidency.
Dozens of people, with placards stating "No To Racism", gathered outside the resort before Mr Trump arrived.
Mr Trump was asked about the EU referendum result, which saw Leave beat Remain by 52% to 48%, shortly after he touched down at Turnberry in a helicopter.
'People are angry'
The US billionaire answered: said: "I think it's a great thing that's happened. It's an amazing vote, very historic.
"People are angry all over the world. They're angry over borders, they're angry over people coming into the country and taking over and nobody even knows who they are.
"They're angry about many, many things in the UK, the US and many other places. This will not be the last."
Mr Trump said UK divisions "will heal" as "it is a great place", adding: "I said this was going to happen and I think it is a great thing.
"Basically, they took back their country. That's a great thing.
"I think we're doing very well in the United States also, and it is essentially the same thing that is happening in the United States.
"I want to support my son who really represented me here in building this great great place (Turnberry)."
When asked his opinion on David Cameron announcing he is to step down as prime minister after the Leave vote, Mr Trump said: "Well, that's too bad."

Great comment. He can build on the development.

Donald,my day1 nigga.

.Donald Trump is the greatest joker of this century by thinking he can win elections by preying on people's prejudices and fears. What he is saying negates the fundamental principles america was built on like freedom from discrimination, equality and liberty

Trump will say the truth the way it is. I support Brexit.

don't mind those stupid NL that have been giving us wrong economics on paper, Brexit is the best thing UK did.

And today, he had been proved right. The British Pound is making rapid gains like never before when Britain was still married to German-EU. The man is not that stupid as some would say.
