Trump is out at his golf course with no clubs in his cart.

[Kingofalldems]

In fact I see no clubs anywhere. What is Trump and his henchman up to?

1. Probably digging up top secret documents he buried.

Must have a buyer.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Time for him to cash it all out.

[wnylib]

147. That's my thought. He is either

making sure that everyone's story is coordinated, or he is arranging a quick trade of additional documents at his other properties before they can be found. Or both.

Whatever the case, it looks like his arrival in DC wearing golf clothes was a suspiciously conspicuous attempt to advertise that he was there only to play golf. I suspect the DOJ, FBI, and CIA are not gullible enough to be taken in by such an obvious ruse.

[Irish_Dem]

156. He didn't fool us on DU either! :)

If the FBI, CIA, etc need some help we are on top of things.

Really I am wondering if Trump isn't yanking us all around a bit right now.
Doing some play acting, who knows?

Yes usually suspects in a crime ring will want to get their stories straight, split the loot,
make escape plans, hide the loot or sell it quickly, etc.

Typical stuff.

Since Nunes and McCarthy are present, I am wondering if Trump is fishing for info about the J6 Committee.
Or asking for help.

[Sanity Claws]

6. I was thinking along those lines too.

[SheltieLover]

85. My 1st thought!

[Butterflylady]

90. It seems you beat me to that very same thought.

[SheltieLover]

132. We can share.

And I'm sure we aren't alone.

[certainot]

100. DOJ just put out 40 subpoenas! and he's telling them if they don't squeal their next scorecards wil

will have swiss bank act numbers on them with UUUGE amounts in them

[Chainfire]

2. Meeting with Boris in the rough of the 7th.

[Ocelot II]

3. So who are the others? And are they meeting on a golf course

without playing golf so they can talk without the risk of electronic eavesdropping?

[Merlot]

9. That was my first thought - no electronic eavesdropping

Or so they think.

[Sanity Claws]

10. Hmmm. Let's help someone in that group is wearing a wire.

[Irish_Dem]

20. I was typing the same thought below.

Please God.

Let one of these guys be wearing a wire.

[CottonBear]

109. They're all wearing golf shirts. Hard to hide a wire.

[getagrip_already]

116. not these days.....

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3256801563945294.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.516e5194FkyeUk&algo_pvid=5b641e61-2bf4-4801-a3bf-dff634e87cfa&algo_exp_id=5b641e61-2bf4-4801-a3bf-dff634e87cfa-13&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%2212000017427719918%22%7D&pdp_npi=2%40dis%21USD%2152.37%2132.47%21%21%21%21%21%40210318c216630214744003463e197f%2112000017427719918%21sea&curPageLogUid=Mk7djtjCJkSS

They are so small they fit in your ear. Bluetooth to your phone.

[Irish_Dem]

121. Good, I was thinking they might have to wire the guys' underwear.

[getagrip_already]

127. spycraft has come a loooong way.....

And you know the counter intel group has the best toys.

Can't trust anyone these days.

[Irish_Dem]

131. They may also have long distance listening devices.

I assume Trump is being surveilled 24/7.

[CottonBear]

130. Good point.

I would imagine that none of them have a cell phone, smart watch, or any kind of smart device on them, though. Hopefully the government wire in-ear device can transmit a long way.

[getagrip_already]

141. a good parabolic microphone is good for about a half mile......

Though some claim much more. Just need line of sight. The guy taking that picture could easily pick up spoken words.

There is tech that can even isolate specific voices in a noisy crowd.

It's really scary what's out there, and we don't even know half.

[TheRealNorth]

173. If TFG was worried about people being wired

You would think they would have some sort of broad-band radio jammer.

[Irish_Dem]

18. That was my immediate thought.

Seems obvious doesn't it?

If true, they know they are being surveilled 24/7.

Criminals get buggy and meet to:
1. get their stories straight
2. formulate escape plans
3. divvy up the loot

With any luck one of the guys has flipped and is wearing a wire.
Please God.

[2naSalit]

46. +++++!!

[multigraincracker]

52. You just hit a

Hole in one.

[Irish_Dem]

61. Maybe I should go play golf with Trump and his pals.

Wearing an underWIRE garment.

[crickets]

57. All of the above.

It's like watching a bad mob movie.

[Irish_Dem]

63. Yep. It's just Abnormal Psych 101 and the Goodfellas.

[Sky Jewels]

75. Ha ha, I read that quickly as "watching a bad moob movie"

which it kinda is, given Trump's manssiere-worthy busty pair.

[Codifer]

86. What I could see was "mad boob movie"...

I think Woody Allen mad that one.

[underpants]

32. My first thought too

[dchill]

42. Paranoia strikes deep...

Into your lives it will creep.

Buffalo Springfield

[ultralite001]

94. Golf cosplay...

Hannity in charge of messaging...

Trusty in charge of legal...

McCarthy gonna finesse the GOP...

Nunes taking care of lunch...

and Eric just wants to ride in the cart with daddy...

That is all...

[barbtries]

119. that's what i thought too.

but who knows? Individuals could be wired. Though perhaps he shook them all down before taking this little trip. It's all very mysterious and suspicious imo.

[WmChris]

4. Open house

Could he be giving real estate developers or realtors a tour of the grounds.

[Ocelot II]

16. Riiiight....

[Sky Jewels]

28. Lol.

Hannity, Nunes, McCarthy et al are now real estate developers? Who knew?!

[3auld6phart]

44. LOl

Good one

[certainot]

105. actually....remember hannity was doing real estate with Michael cohen, right?

[doc03]

7. Having a secret talk with his conspirators to get

their lies straight.

[2naSalit]

47. +1

Somebody made someone else really nervous so there was an emergency meeting. Anybody see lyndsey in the group?

[Hekate]

146. Lindsay might get himself expelled. He publicly objected to TFG saying he'd pardon all insurrection-

… -ists first thing back in office.

[hibbing]

96. Hannity, the worst

Yeah, and getting their taking points (all lies) together.
Peace

[skip fox]

8. Meeting peoplewithout being bugged?

Paranoid? Or just stupid and thrashing?

(Time to reel him in, Merrick.)

[KentuckyWoman]

115. My money is on him out there setting up his friends.

Apparently he slithered into DC last night without much planning and is now holding court out in the weeds.

[pwb]

11. They may have used ground penetrating radar on the grave site?

That golfing may be a gathering of all the guilty eh?

[A HERETIC I AM]

65. Different golf course.

He's in DC, so this course is the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, VA.

Ivana is buried at his course in Bedminster, NJ.

[pwb]

93. Ah shit,

thanks, tfg makes my head spin.

[A HERETIC I AM]

143. He has that effect on most of us, I would think!

It is difficult to keep up with all his "properties", of that there is no doubt. I put that word in quotes because most of them are apparently leveraged to the hilt and most lose money like it's going out of style. It might say "Trump" on the sign outside, but the people holding the note on the properties are the real owners, to be sure.

[Hekate]

149. Diff golf course, but one wonders what else he's buried & on which of his properties...

[yonder]

12. He's never had any clubs in his cart...

or a full deck of cards...etc., etc.

[sop]

135. He kicks the ball onto the green and into the hole.

[lame54]

13. Paranoid mobster Trump fearing bugs everywhere...

Still plotting to take over U.S.

[IcyPeas]

14. it boggles my mind that the likes of McCarthy would still be seen in public with him

he must be getting advice from hannity. will hannity have new talking points tonight?

[underpants]

40. I don't see anyone who looks like McCarthy

in any of the pics I’ve seen. Just saying.

[Tommy Carcetti]

73. I don't see McCarthy either.

The only one besides the Former Office Occupant that I can positively identify is Eric.

[underpants]

76. I don't see Hannity either. I do see what could well be Nunes.

[JohnnyRingo]

107. I think that's Hannity driving with the aqua shirt

AlphaSean isn't going to let someone drive him when he's the best in the world.

[underpants]

148. Well Johnny, we were both right and wrong. Good for us.

This was a groundskeeping meeting.
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217150231

He’s definitely chewing some ass there. Venting.
I’ve been around stuff like this working on a golf course.

[certainot]

117. hannity in turquoise? someone said boris Epstein and he is one of 40 just got subpoenaed

[underpants]

126. I stand corrected. That could be Hannity.

[ShazzieB]

124. Same here.

I know what Sean and Kev look like, but I can't spot them here. As for the others?

It would be nice if someone labeled them all with the names.

P.S. Who even is Trusty? Never heard that nickname before.

[Chellee]

134. James Trusty

Trump's attorney.

[JohnnyRingo]

177. Hannity looks different when he's not playing the character on TV

In real life he skips the Brylcream and goes for the blow dry look.
He tries to look like Mr Everyman's strict authoritarian father on the show.

[Hekate]

151. McCarthy is in too deep by now

[Deuxcents]

15. They are having a meeting of the minds away from surveillance

No texts, phone calls..just one on one so there’s no evidence of their plans.

[2naSalit]

48. Or so they think.

I mean, we know about it.

[durablend]

113. Don't forget

The Obama weather satellite sees ALL

[2naSalit]

155. I know, right?

[A HERETIC I AM]

68. If Hannity is there, the bar for "minds" couldn't be that high.

It still astonishes me that Sean Hannity was an advisor to the president, albeit informally. A college dropout "shock jock" basically.

[OAITW r.2.0]

157. Speaking the truth is cheap. Telling a believable lie, priceless.

That's why RW media pays so well.

[Wounded Bear]

17. I guess golf courses are the new garages...

[PlutosHeart]

175. They look totally ridiculous

riding around in those carts.

[BlackSkimmer]

21. Is he in jail?

I’m sure I read here that he was “going down”.

[Kingofalldems]

89. You can see he's not in jail.

What's your point?

[samnsara]

22. did we ever find out why?

[Irish_Dem]

72. If we can identify who is there, we can probably figure out the why.

[Sky Jewels]

23. Where's a massive lightning bolt when you need one?

[dalton99a]

24. Trump's little Apalachin meeting

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apalachin_meeting

[TheRealNorth]

25. Conspiring in plain sight

[dalton99a]

29. Precisely.

[Scrivener7]

64. Exactly. Just like the last time at the Mayflower. Either that or he's going to announce.

And we're going to let him. And someone on DU will tell us all that it isn't a Law&Order episode.

[Midnight Writer]

26. Hannity is a top-drawer journalist. I'm sure he will give the American people a full report.

If the FBI or NSA is not monitoring this conversation with long-range listening devices, they are derelict. These people are a threat to our national security.

[OAITW r.2.0]

161. Hannity is gonna have to think real hard on how he responds to this "meeting".

Because, people are wondering what a key group of Trump supporters are doing riding around a golf course, changing locations to discuss....what? Sean really doesn't know what the NSA is capable of recording..

[Irish_Dem]

27. He could be arrested on the spot if he is caught selling classified info.

That is, any normal person would be arrested on the spot for espionage.

[honest.abe]

30. This pretty much confirms there is something big about to happen.

[LudwigPastorius]

31. That's the way the mafia conducts business.

"The beauty about golf is that it's very hard to bug a golf course. . . ."

https://www.golfdigest.com/story/meet-the-mobster-who-did-most-of-his-work-on-the-golf-course

56. They can't seem to...

Muster anything more sophisticated than a mob movie cliche.

Sad.

[OAITW r.2.0]

33. I betcha no one is carrying a cell phone or wearing smart watches. nt

[Irish_Dem]

70. Trump's made men, oops I mean SS agents, made everyone drop watches and phones in a pillowcase.

[kairos12]

34. Cart is probably stuffed

with papers.

[DJ Porkchop]

35. You want me to take care of the head of the Gaming Commission?

?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1

[RockRaven]

36. His trip is weak cover for meeting/talking with those people. Outside where there are no "bugs."

His stupid fucking mob brain strikes again.

[Eyeball_Kid]

38. Money and power.

His plan all along was to meet with his lackeys and make deals. The pols who are in the photo are his Team Coup. They’re planning.

[tavernier]

39. A meeting of the minds.

[dchill]

41. Watson! The game's afoot!

[Beastly Boy]

43. Trump selling burial plots.

Plenty of takers, apparently.

[Chainfire]

45. Trump probably has meetings outside because he probably fears that the walls have ears.

[world wide wally]

49. How can grown men think of this buffoon as their leader?

[ProfessorGAC]

50. He'll Claim He Shot 71

There are only 2 ways he could shoot 71:
1) Like today, don't actually play & lie about doing it, or;
2) Play until the 71st stroke & drive off the course. That's probably 14 holes.

[Zambero]

60. 71 is downright impressive!

Wonder if he'll do even better on the back nine?

[ProfessorGAC]

71. LOL!

That's my low score this year, but I played all 18 holes.
That's 4 or 5 shots better than normal, and it was only once this year.
But, that's not as good as I used to be, and I'm nearly 66.
TFG still claims those scores. Jack Nicklaus wasn't shooting 71 at that age.
He lies about everything.

[Ocelot II]

97. Especially without using golf clubs.

[erronis]

112. And his followers would still love him.

Not sure he could pull the trigger 71 times on Times Square, tho.

[world wide wally]

51. Someone needs to bug the golf carts

[Vinca]

53. Maybe Trump's planning where he wants to bury the Queen.

[multigraincracker]

54. Bad week for Puten

and his puppet.

[Walleye]

55. Maybe they are conspiring and plotting against Mike Pence

[EndlessWire]

58. So, the Palmer Report is saying that

McCarthy--is that the House Minority Speaker McCarthy??--and Trusty, one of his current attorneys, are present? That's a strategy meeting...they are probably being surveilled by those with superb capability.

Stand next to a tree in the rain...probably Eric's idea...

[Wicked Blue]

59. There are thunderstorms and even a tornado warning in the DC area

Tornado warning Fairfax, Prince William and Charles counties.

[GreenWave]

82. Lightning can travel many a mile from its source.

[Scrivener7]

62. People seem to be finding this funny. I'm not. He already tried one coup.

The fact that he's able to plan another one with his cronies like this, almost two years later, is ridiculous.

[Irish_Dem]

66. The US gov't response to Trump is so ridiculous, it is total farce at this point.

The world must see the US as a joke now.
I guess we have to start laughing too.

[Blue Owl]

67. I don't see any clubs, but I see a hulking, moronic schlub

[kentuck]

69. Well, that is interesting!

No one has any clubs and Donald seems to be the one talking, as some stand around with their hands on their hips, like football players when they are totally exhausted. It looks like a mob meeting.

It must be important to come all the way down from Bedminster?

It does look like a strategy session. Someone is in deep shit and needs some help to get out of it. What can you do? He's looking for suggestions. If it wasn't important, do you think they would be standing in the rain?

83. Who do you think was wearing the wire?

87. Multiples. Eric and Hannity, at least! 😆

Refuse the subpoenas and it’s criminal contempt - ask Bannon and Navarro 😀😀😀
You hear that Dan Scavino?

106. I hope they ALL go down hard.

They need to pay a price for thumbing their noses at the law.

[OAITW r.2.0]

164. +1

Absolutely....sadly the Republican SCOTUS faction will make sure that Trumpsters gets the ultimate protection.

[llmart]

114. When you mentioned "wearing" I had this thought.

Is that the only shirt the tub of lard owns for "golfing"?

For someone who's supposed to be wealthy, he dresses like a real slob. When you call him the Slobfather, it sure is appropriate.

[malaise]

137. I stole Slobfather from DUer Thucythucy

And yes he appears to have that one golfing shifty.
He looks awful and the non-invitation to London might kill him.

123. Only one MAGA hat (on the maggot). Looks like a bunch of white guys (again).

Why wasn't Betsy DeVos invited? Or MTG or the Bobbitt thing?

[crickets]

158. I don't recognize any of these people except tfg and Eric.

Given the orange marker flags over one fellow's shoulder, this likely is just a groundskeeping meeting. There's no way tfg was in such a rush yesterday that he got on a plane in his golf shoes just for this. Strange.

[OAITW r.2.0]

165. I don't either....

but soon they will be known.

79. I hope the show What on Earth nails him with their high resolution cameras.

Putting their hands over their mouths.

[Arkansas Granny]

88. Planning the next insurrection?

[Codifer]

103. Bingo!

[Ford_Prefect]

91. What he's doing is setting the list for the lifeboat, who's getting in and who'll be left to drown.

He's laying down the law about who had better protect him, and threatening anyone who doesn't with exposure, kompromat, and mob violence.

That's how the Mob bosses do it.

[Fullduplexxx]

95. getting their stories straight

[Botany]

108. "getting their stories straight"

Yup. Except the level of espionage that TFG might have been very well been @ has had 3 Americans
who were @ that level and we executed 2 of them (The Rosenbergs) and the other guy has 15 life
terms and he is @ the Super Max in Colorado (FBI Agent Robert Hanssen).

Donny is gonna go to jail for stealing and selling (I have no doubt) America's state secrets. And I am
willing to bet that Flynn, Stone, and Manafort helped him to pick the papers.

[OAITW r.2.0]

167. Maybe Donald Trump was this stupid and nave.

You'd think -after 2 impeachments - that you'd slide out of office and take a George W. Bush profile. You know, take up painting. To cover your war crimes. At least Bush's crimes was against Iraq. Trump crimes were against the USA. You'd think he'd have left office without TS/SCIF documents that NARA knew were missing. Fucking guy wants to be named the Greatest Traitor of all Time (GTOT)....like his cult is gonna overwhelm our society and free him.

[Pantagruel]

110. Exactamente!

[Warpy]

122. Interesting

Whatever that gang of fucking traitors is up to, you can bet it's no good.

159. That he was out on the course with no clubs?

No it has not.

[Zeitghost]

162. It's the claimed guest list that was false.

He's there with his head groundskeeper and guys with survey flags.

[Kingofalldems]

166. Nope. So some sort of course maintenance

called for a special appearance by Trump? Not buying it. He is here for some nefarious reason and the course visit was probably misdirection.
