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.
This is literally the motto of our entire existence “lately.”
“The only way to get ahead is to be a massive piece of shit. It’s stupid to not be a piece of shit. There are no consequences when you succeed.”
Relax guy, that’s completely normal.
Every empire goes thru the same thing right before collapse. Rules don’t matter unless caught, and even if you followed the rules you might be “caught”.
So the norm for acceptable behavior becomes “anything that didn’t have immediate consequences”.
Why should I be ok with this?
That’s kind of the joke…
Everyone is acting like it’s normal that we’re running down the same checklist as the USSR did, it ain’t slow, it started before trump ever thought of running for president
Quick edit:
I know “the /s is always needed”, but I’ve never once heard “relax guy” used non sarcastically so thought it would be cool
Ahhh sorry, I was a little dense. If I see relax guy it’s usually used condescendingly so it kinda put me on edge and the rest didn’t register as actual sarcasm. As they say, telling someone to relax often has the opposite effect lol
Oh yeah, it’s very much like “calm down” as in it always does the opposite
I blame South Park, they had trump saying it constantly last week:

Yeah, and you know what happens to the chumps when empires collapse, right.?
But don’t worry about THAT now…
Imo. golf is the sport where it is the most absurd. It is made up so rich people can stand together, many meters away from anyone else to make shady deals. The entire game is just a McGuffin.
You hit a nerve with golf enjoyers… With your spot on description of the seedy nature of the dumbest “sport” on the planet.
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!
