They keep playing that clip of his caddy dropping a ball, and making fun of how he tried to do it slyly but it was obvious.
I just saw it again on Colbert, and I legitimately think the caddy is only trying to fool trump.
trump is 100% the guy to blame caddies if he fucks up, so the only caddies he likes are ones that can trick him into thinking he’s great. No one he’s playing with would ever call it out.
The only person they need to fool out there, is trump…
He legitimately might think he’s really a generational golfer. For the same reason every billionaire legit thinks they’re a genius.
I read an article years ago where the author played golf with him. The cheating was blatant and obvious, but not malicious. Cheating was a given. Trump expected everyone to cheat, and to not do so was foolish. Anyone who didn’t cheat was a chump.
I liked the comment someone else made with several articles referencing trumps history of cheating in golf. My favorite quote from those excerpts has to be the one where hes cheating and the guy they’re playing with puts the ball back before putting and trump goes “he put it back, thats why hes an unemployed coach and I’m worth billions” so yeah, unironically thinks not-cheating is pussy shit lmao
Look at this guy! He’s playing where it lies. What a fucking loser!
Yes, he knows he cheats. He also knows what he did to kids with Epstein
You don’t think the cheating pedophile, who cheats and lies about everything, constantly, knows that he cheats and lies?
Yes, he knows he cheats. Also, he’s on the Epstein list. He knows that too.
Trump cheats, lies, rapes and steals. But I don’t think HE consciously thinks of anything he does as cheating, lying, raping and stealing.
People don’t tend to want to think of themselves as the bad guy. So they make up excuses to justify their behavior.
I worked for a small company and traveled with the owner frequently. Somehow we got on the subject of bonuses for the sales staff and he told me he often finds ways of reducing their bonus if they ever got a massive deal because they are salespeople and they would just waste the money and hurt themselves… In his mind he was responsible enough to handle the money rather than waste it. I’ve encountered similar altitudes and behaviors with more than a few business owners and wealthy people I’ve encountered. They hide behind many excuses for bad behavior.
The only reason Trump is scared is he knows how his base will see this.
Caddy might have been downwind of him at an inopportune time and recognized that there was a messy storm brewing in the presidential diaper. Gotta finish up quick or get stuck on changing duty.
Yes, he knows he cheats at golf. Other players have observed it and commented on it numerous times in the past.
Here the thing… Golf is a sport you play against yourself. Nothing another player does can impact your score. It’s a game of precision, consistency, and dedication. At the end of the day, nobody really gives a fuck about what your score was except you. You play to improve yourself. Cheating at golf is cheating at self improvement. Pun intended, Trump cheating at golf is par for the course, and it neatly sums up everything wrong with his personality.
Weird how his golf scandals are getting this many headlines, I’m sure he prefers it over the other scandal he doesn’t want y’all talking about.
You’re right about the last bit, but slightly off on what it means.
He thinks he’s got everyone fooled. He’s a toddler with no emotional stability and so he has to surround himself with people who will play along. Because even when other people call him out… what happens next?
They just shrug and move on. Eventually that makes these billionaires think that they’re master manipulators, when really, everyone is just tired of dealing with their emotional outbursts and are only going along for the paycheck.
Samuel L Jackson knows he cheats.
Trump is a psychopath. There is absolutely no cheating in his mind, unless he’s caught.
If he outright kills someone, it’s not murder unless he’s convicted (and even then, he’s find an excuse).
He doesn’t understand the concept of cheating, only getting caught (“losers!”) and “winning.”
I cheated at golf a few times when I was a kid, and I still cringe thinking about it. Who the fuck did I think I was fooling?
Edit: Now I’m thinking about it again and I want to punch myself.
How boring would you be if you didn’t have some cringe stories! They prove you really lived life to the full. You can’t get 100% correct in a fallible meat suit and the fickle, gatekeepy, hot or not, societal mind.
I’m just glad I’m too old to have the cringe moments recorded for all time. Poor kids these days.
Yeah! Same! I say that all the time. Although the cringe policing wasn’t as hard core before days of constant public documentation of all of the things. You kinda just drifted away from people who were cringe, and they had to figure it out without anything being spelled out for them. At least kids nowadays have a very complex and comprehensive guide to follow. Kinda. I’m still glad I’m pre, all of that.
Don’t be so hard on yourself. It is a bit cringy but who cares? It’s a game where you basically just play against yourself for fun. You fill out your own score card and you can write down any number you want without affecting anyone else in any real way. I’d find someone getting upset at your cheating at golf when you were a kid even more cringy.
When I was a kid, I played t-ball one year. My only memory from it was one time I was on defense but was more interested in drawing in the sand than paying attention to the game.
Or when I was a bit older, I was playing softball (parenta really wanted me to be interested in some baaeball variant I guess). I was on 2nd base and the pitcher missed catching a throw from the catcher and it rolled towards me. Instead of stealing 3rd, I stepped off the base and stopped the ball with my foot to be helpful. Lol the 3rd base coach wasn’t impressed. Technically I should have been out, but it was just a recreational game so they let it slide. I was really embarrassed at the time and would remember that moment for years with regret. But eventually I realized it didn’t matter in the slightest bit and I can laugh at how much of a dork I was.
Because the reality is all kids are dorks and doing stupid shit is a part of growing up and learning to be a bit less of a dork going forward.
I just stopped playing, I figured if I had to cheat to make myself feel good then I was never going to be good enough to stop.
When you cheat, you only cheat yourself.
Glorious leader win every golf tournament. He 82 years old and win everything!
I wish he’d win the claw machine.
Ummm, when you win a golf tournament you’ve never played in… You know you’re cheating.
