"I'll have an Arnold Palmer..."

[PCIntern]

I haven’t heard this kind of discussion in public since Joe Pepitone played for the Yankees. Yes, that dates me…

Obsessing about a dead man’s dick size publicly…I find that vaguely…”weird gay”. Penis envy discussed at a political rally for the Presidency of the United States at age 78….sick fuck stuff.

[doc03]

1. I have heard jokes about Milton Berle "Uncle Milty" and Frank Sinatra on talk shows

but not from someone running for president. Kind of dates me, few people today would know who Milton Berle was
or even Frank Sinatra.

8. I saw him in Central Park on a summer day. I remember enjoying Tuesday nights.

When he was 4 years old, he was the model for Buster Brown shoes. If you are near my age, you know the shoe. Every kid had 'em on for Sundays.

[BComplex]

23. Buster Brown shoes! Wow. That takes me back, too!

And penny loafers.

[HighFired49]

45. Penny Loafers!!

My favorite shoes, and I felt too cool when I wore them. I must have worn out or outgrew five pairs. I remember polishing them until they gleamed!

[hay rick]

53. Cool was white bucks. nt

[IjustDontlikeRepugs]

55. Here's Buster Brown, he lives in a shoe...

And here’s his dog, Tag, he lives in there too.

[EverHopeful]

14. Sympathy for anyone who doesn't know who Frank Sinatra is

Spent (too much?) time in LA and heard stories of people who had met and/or interacted with him and he was apparently a really decent guy. Even if I didn't love listening to him (thank you parents who didn't hold back on sharing their favorite entertainers with the little ones) I'd have positive feelings for him).

A favorite story was he asked a car valet what his biggest tip was and was told $50. Sinatra gave him $100 and asked who had given him the $50. The answer: "You did, Sir."

[niyad]

33. I encountered him a few times in Lake Tahoe at Harrah's. He and Dean

Martin liked to play craps together. They were both rude to the employees. I know that Frank was known for his charity work, and he was quite the talent, but he definitely was not one of my favourite people.

[EverHopeful]

47. Aww darn. Sorry to hear that but better to know

Guess I've just been lucky only hearing from folks with positive encounters until now.

[hay rick]

42. Great story. Doesn't matter if it's true or not.

[NoRethugFriends]

52. seriously? he was a mob connected dick

[moniss]

16. Few people today

can imagine sitting around and listening to radio serials.

[ashredux]

20. Fibber McGee and Molly ....😊

[moniss]

22. I grew up in an area of farm people

where many of them never physically traveled more than a few miles from home. But thanks to that big beautiful Philco in it's nice wooden cabinet they had been all around the world.

[hay rick]

41. So much like podcasts...

[moniss]

48. Sort of but from what I read

about them they are more a one on one sort of thing and because of technology can be less scheduled for the listener. The old radio days were like family rituals and dominated the daily schedule in the sense that people set their routine to what time the show aired. This had the effect of being a major factor in creating the "family viewing" effect when TV got into full swing. Sunday nights were huge and the advertisers knew that planting their seeds on Sunday night meant impact on household discussions and purchasing during the days to follow. The car ads were a huge thing on Sunday's for example.

I know that podcasts have their impacts in different ways but even families who didn't get along much would all sit down in the same room and shut-up when "The Ed Sullivan Show" and "Bonanza" came on. I don't know if we see that "grouping" affect around podcasts. Maybe but I haven't read about it. That's what I mean by more one on one. For me it is not a matter of better or worse but rather just such a different time and experience.

[coehawk]

32. Milton Berle?

He was in that Ratt video "Round and Round"

[TheRickles]

2. Here's a bit more detail (it's from NPR, so it's not NSFW).

[Conjuay]

3. Every day he dives deeper into that cesspool

that is his mind, and we are forced to tag along.
...Remind me again about Republican Family Values?

[True Dough]

4. Are you saying

Joe put the "pep" in the "tone"?

[Hugin]

5. This is why we can't have anything nice. n/t

[livetohike]

6. Nothing says "President" like talking about the

size of a deceased golf legend (and hometown legend’s) penis during a rally in said hometown. Disgusting, embarrassing and as a native western Pennsylvanian I am offended by his presence.

[BlueState]

7. Oh C'mon..

Give the guy a break. It's not like he wore a tan suit.

[BComplex]

24. LOL

[twodogsbarking]

9. He puts the ick in sick.

[Bumbles]

13. And in dick.

[Blue Dotty]

10. Locker room talk

Is what the loser candidate resorts to when he has nothing of substance to campaign on. Only way he grabs headlines is through hate speech, slams, and smut talk.

[Funtatlaguy]

11. Trump loves Palmers putter.

[tetedur]

12. His clubs had a very stiff shaft.

[The Madcap]

17. A 9 iron??

[moniss]

15. He obviously misunderstood

what people in PA wanted to talk about. He overheard someone calling him a "giant prick" and he thought they were up for the topic.

[gibraltar72]

18. Addressed a burning question

that was playing on Pennsylvanians minds!

[Farmer-Rick]

19. And he said he was ending early so

They could go to the game. He said that on Saturday. The Steelers' game is on this Sunday, today, at 8:20 pm.

He doesn't even know what day it is.

[riversedge]

49. trumpy knows he needs a LONGGGGGGGG nappy.

[ashredux]

21. Trump's mental decline is extremely obvious.....

[bagimin]

25. "I've got it, I'll talk about Arnie's big d...

then they'll love me!"

mother of babbling god

[MadameButterfly]

26. He thinks what makes someone a man is the size

of his dick.

[MadameButterfly]

27. Obama and What it means to be a man

[niyad]

36. Thank you.

[riversedge]

51. I really wish ALL would listen--and learn from this short Obama message.

[FalloutShelter]

28. Dear DOG make it stop'

[FailureToCommunicate]

29. Ick. And just weird. Now I don't think I'll be able to order an "Arnold Palmer" in

a restaurant with a straight face.

Trump kicks off a Pennsylvania rally by talking about Arnold Palmer's genitalia

https://www.npr.org/2024/10/20/g-s1-29100/trump-pennsylvania-rally-arnold-palmer

October 20, 20245:47 AM ET

LATROBE, Pa. — Donald Trump's campaign suggested he would begin previewing his closing argument Saturday night with Election Day barely two weeks away. But the former president kicked off his rally with a detailed story about Arnold Palmer, at one point even praising the late, legendary golfer's genitalia.

Trump was campaigning in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where Palmer was born in 1929 and learned to golf from his father, who suffered from polio and was head pro and greenskeeper at the local country club.

Politicians saluting Palmer in his hometown is nothing new. But Trump spent 12 full minutes doing so at the top of his speech and even suggested how much more fun the night would be if Palmer, who died in 2016, could join him on stage.


“Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women," Trump said. "This is a guy that was all man.”

Then he went even further.

“When he took the showers with other pros, they came out of there. They said, ‘Oh my God. That's unbelievable,'” Trump said with a laugh. “I had to say. We have women that are highly sophisticated here, but they used to look at Arnold as a man.”.............

[E. Normus]

39. It seems that TSF

would like to sink Arnie's putz.

[twodogsbarking]

40. So Arnold was really that guy from Nantucket?

The weird needle shows full.

[maxrandb]

43. When I was in the Navy, a Marine was next to me as we stood on deck peeing into the ocean

He turned to me and said; "damn! that water is cold!"

I said; "yeah, and it's deep too".

Can I be president now?

JFC! The entire Retrumplican Party has become a roving gang of middle school boys.

[walkingman]

44. IF I wanted to hear that garbage I would just go to the local beer joint here in Texas.

[KS Toronado]

46. What he was really saying was "Everyone's bigger than mine"

He has a sad whenever he's in a men's locker room.

[Sky Jewels]

54. Palmer v Trump:
