It's a slam dunk case of obvious corruption.
Only a handful of USAF staff ever stay at Turnberry. It was going on BEFORE Trump took office. The Royal Canadian Air Force also use Prestwick. Along with the German,French, Swiss, and Belgian Military. Planespotters at the airport have photos. They go back to 2003.

A representative of the Trump Organization told the New York Times that military personnel have sometimes stayed at Trump Turnberry, but only once a year.
The deal for USAF to use Prestwick was signed under Obama.
