TRUMP GOLF COURSES AND RUSSIA. Eric Trump denies Russia funded his father’s courses: “’It’s a recollection from some guy three years ago through a third person,’” the president’s son told The Post, in reference to an interview that golf writer James Dodson gave to the Boston public radio station, WBUR-FM, about the alleged backing from Moscow. Excerpts from the sit-down, which aired Friday, were featured in a story on the station’s website. ‘We own our courses free and clear,’ Eric said, insisting that the report was ‘categorically untrue’ and ‘complete garbage.’”
