'Will you sort out the VAR situation in Scotland if elected?' - SPFL fans troll presidential candidate Donald Trump after he bizarrely mentions Scottish football account in post promoting absentee voting in US election

Trump's X account has been posting reminders about the deadline for absentee voting ahead of the November 5th election, in which he will attempt to return to the White House. In the tweet, @SPFLMediawatch has been tagged, with a reminder of the deadline in North Carolina, leaving fans highly amused.

@OE_67 said: "Trump and Scottish Football Twitter is football heritage."

@Paul_R_McDonald said: "Will you sort out the VAR situation in Scotland if elected?"

@ScottishPedro93 added: "If elected would you be able to convince the SFA to increase the number of teams in the SPFL to 16 or 18 teams please?"

@Datboi_dave said: "To get my vote you have to agree Killie pies are the best pies in football."

@TSHorror asked: "Do you think St Mirren should have got a penalty on Sunday?"

Trump is going head-to-head with Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and will aim to win a second term on November 5. Despite a history of felonious charges, and a chequered past when it comes to the legality of his reaction to losing the 2020 election, he could well be returned to the most powerful political position in the world.

There is a full slate of Scottish Premiership action in midweek, headlined by Rangers' clash with currently second-placed Aberdeen. Whether Trump is tuning in is quite another matter.
