DONALD Trump warned the First Minister he will be remembered as "Mad Alex – the man who destroyed Scotland" if his wind energy policies continue.
The US tycoon also predicted Mr Salmond will lose whatever chance he has of leading Scotland to independence, as a country bankrupted by wind energy projects would always have to rely on others.
In a letter to the First Minister, he advises Mr Salmond: "Be smart and try to get yourself out of this mess. History has shown the world's greatest leaders were the ones that were able to change their minds through knowledge."
