1. It's New Years Day...watch the ball drop.

[True Dough]

2. No doubt he carded a birdie

And that birdie would be a Looney Tune!

[mercuryblues]

3. He got another hole in 1!

[Hugin]

18. The card was filled out before he even landed in Scotland...

Eighteen strokes. Maybe nineteen to maintain plausibility.

[True Dough]

41. There's only one stroke that I desperately want him to have

and it would be fatal!

[KPN]

4. OFFS ... is this shithead really our elected President?

If he’s willing to cheat so blatantly at golf, what the F would anyone expect him to do in a presidential election?! Of course he cheated .., and stole it, in 2016 and 2024.

[lapfog_1]

5. and the man's name in the black shirt and red vest would be

"oddjob". Need to watch out for his steel bowler hat with the edge blade.

Never trust a man that cheats at golf

[Midnight Writer]

16. According to George Lopez, they call him "Rabbit".

Lopez claims that when he golfed with Trump, there was a guy called Rabbit who would run down the course ahead of everyone else and "find" Donald's golf ball.

The golf ball that Rabbit found was often nowhere near where Trump hit it.

[PJMcK]

17. Caddies call Trump Pele

After the soccer great because Trump kicks his ball out of the rough so often.

[underpants]

43. He kicked ESPN's Mike Tirico's shot of his life into a trap

Tirico hits the best shot of his life off the deck from 250. 2nd shot on an 5. Everyone, including all the caddies, knew it was on the green. Mike is beaming the whole way up to the green. When he gets his putter and walks up to the green - no ball.

Trump as always left everyone and was first to the green.

Trump’s own caddy walked by Tirico and a couple people and muttered “He kicked it in the trap”.

[PJMcK]

44. I think we've read the same books! (n/t)

[underpants]

42. Trump usually drives off as soon as he hits.

Doesn’t watch his playing partners or give them help spotting.

As reported by GOLF, Oscar De La Hoya said: "First ball. Trump hits off to the water, gets another ball from his pocket. Hits it off to the left, out of bounds. Trump said, ‘Oh, I got another one, just warming up.’
"Another one to the water. Then the fourth ball he hits I know it went to the bushes. But Donald, what he does, he tees off first so he can take off right away. I pipe mine down the middle. So we go off to our ball, and who do we see? Donald Trump, right in the middle of the fairway."
He continued: "As they pulled up, Trump said, 'By the way, I found my first ball, it’s right here'.
"We’re like, ‘OK, yeah,’ we’re cracking up, not in front of his face. Then we go on to a par-3. There’s a big bush right between the tee and the green, so you can’t really see the green — you can see the flag, not the green. Trump hits and we just know it went out of bounds. We know it. He takes off. We get up there and he’s like, ‘Oh, my ball’s right here!’ Three feet away. ‘And by the way, I’m going to pick it up, it’s a gimme.'”

21. Such a great sequence!

It's fairly true to the novel but in the book it's much more nuanced. Goldfinger uses every cheat in the world but Bond wins of course.

The novel by Ian Fleming are quite remarkable. Bond isn't the super hero as in the films. The first 3 or 4 films were closest to the novels. But by the fifth film, the writers were injecting so much humor that the stories lost their threatening villainess. Still, they're fun.

6. trump cheats at everything

[PJMcK]

19. Trump quote from that book (paraphrased)

When accused of cheating at golf, on more than one occasion Trump has said, "I cheat on my taxes. I cheat on my wives. Do you really think I don't cheat at golf on a course that I own?!"

[DinahMoeHum]

28. From author Rick Reilly, a couple of days back. . .

[Pinback]

35. One of my favorites is "ya big jobby!"

… a “jobby” being Scottish slang for a particularly voluminous deposit in the toilet!

But the one that really cracks me up is “You spoon.” Apparently the idea is that a spoon, unlike a knife or fork, isn’t too sharp.


Love these people!

[Gimpyknee]

30. Reilly's book is great.

[BoRaGard]

7. Every G.O.P. brat out there watching their "family values role model"

is getting a really sick and twisted G.O.P. view of "how to play the game of life."

[underpants]

8. The excuses on Twitter are just sad

By people who’d I guess play golf.

Seniors don’t have to hit out of the trap
He lost his ball (with that many people around??) so he took a drop
He plays fast
How do you know that wasn’t where his ball was?

Shake my head.

[Kingofalldems]

15. #1 possibly the dumbest thing I have ever read.

I hit out of 3 today at 77. Freaking idiot MAGAts, just as dishonest as their hero.

[underpants]

26. Yeah. I couldn't get away with pulling out of a bunker and dropping

even with a penalty stroke. My buddies would never let me live that down.

[Norrrm]

31. If any of those excuses could be valid, his lackey would not have to do it in such a sneaky manner.

[Quanto Magnus]

25. They're cheering it on..... eom

[Norrrm]

9. A golf 'lie'..... in more ways than one.

In golf, "lie" refers to the position of the ball relative to the ground and its surroundings. A "good lie" is when the ball rests on a relatively flat, even surface, like the middle of the fairway, allowing for a clean and predictable strike. A "bad lie" is when the ball is sitting down in thick rough, on an uneven surface, or in a divot, making it more challenging to hit.

10. The really sad part is that it doesn't really matter.

It's not a tournament. Trump's playing a round. Nobody cares what he hits. But, he cheats anyhow. That's so like him.

[Solly Mack]

11. I can hear him denying that happened. Fake video! Obama did it!

[RANDYWILDMAN]

12. PGA players who love him ???

do not get it he is not just a cheater, he is a cheater at GOLF and a massive one at that!

[PJMcK]

24. Trump cheated on Tiger Woods!

In Rick Reilly's book. "Commander in Cheat," he tells a story about a couple of PGA pros who were asked why they played with Trump since he's a well known cheat. The players replied that they did it so they could have their own "Trump Cheats at Golf" story to tell!

[underpants]

40. Dustin Johnson, Tiger, Trump, and Brad Faxon

DJ and Tiger were one team for some reason.
They gave Trump an extra stroke on 2 4’s on each side or something like that.

Faxon, his partner, sees him tee off into the water and then drive off as he does. Faxon either saw him duff it back in the water or knew he was having trouble due to the time he was taking. When they all get in the green they compare where everyone’s at on the hole. Trump has to be lying 6 or 7 but says he’s putting for 5.

Faxon said that he’d heard that Trump cheated “but I’d never actually seen it!” and shook his head.

[Kingofalldems]

13. Blatant cheating.

Need a special prosecutor to investigate ALL of his club championships.

[rubbersole]

14. Free drop.

Well, a $10 million free drop. He needs to stay over there. (With apologies to the Scottish people.)

[Takket]

20. the Simpsons did a whole episode about this.......

it was suppsoed to be an "over the top" joke about cheating at golf. Mr. Burns would hit the ball into the middle of nowhere, and Smithers, the loyal toadie, would watch through binoculars and lie and say it is "right on the green!" then run ahead and put a ball on the green.

of course in that case, even Mr. Burns was not awful enough to go along with it. Mr. Burns did not know and was actually upset to find out Smithers was cheating on his behalf.

But trumpf is even worse than a joke about cheating at golf.

[3catwoman3]

22. Not even an attempt at subtlety.

[Fil1957]

23. He didn't actually cheat, it's the guy in the red that did it. He was just an innocent bystander!

[bluestarone]

37. THAT'S his game plan.

ALWAYS the other guy!!

[DinahMoeHum]

27. Trump's caddies do it for him.

[unblock]

29. How pathetic do you have to be to pay people to cheat for you.

[FakeNoose]

33. Isn't that the story of his life?

I wonder who the caddies are. If they're Scotsmen they're probably disgusted with the way Chump cheats at golf. But maybe these are Secret Service guys, so they're used to him cheating.

[Sneederbunk]

32. The ball dropper is obviously Deep State.

[dem4decades]

34. Any good golfer would rather hit out of the bunker, not from the rough.

He's not hitting over that sand from the high grass, to the green, but I'll bet money his next stroke is a putt. My guess is his ball dropper will leave him a nice putt on the green, maybe even a gimme.

[bluestarone]

36. There is NOT an honest bone in this assholes body. Wich is 100% proof that

IF he could cheat at an election, he WOULD! Just gotta prove it someday.

[Kingofalldems]

38. He's much worse than Judge Smails.

[BidenRocks]

39. Chump's America

We are not to be trusted!

[UpInArms]

45. Just when I think there is no way to become more disgusted

I am proven ….


Wrong

[republianmushroom]

46. Bet he can't add the strokes up correctly either.

[underpants]

47. I wonder if the guy dropping the ball (coughed)

Golf is about rules. Self enforced.

[republianmushroom]

48. Yup, the integrity of the player, trump has no integrity.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

49. Trump whined that the Secret Service made it harder for him to cheat at golf: report

This made me smile

Wasting taxpayer money to golf and hold the grand opening for one of his courses! Why should we have to pay M just for him to play a game of golf??

Trump whined that the Secret Service made it harder for him to cheat at golf: report

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-golf-2673773236/

Wall Street Journal reporter Josh Dawsey worked with co-authors Isaac Arnsdorf and Tyler Pager to gather information about President Donald Trump from his 2024 campaign for their book. Among the things they found was an admission from Trump that the Secret Service makes it more difficult for him to cheat a golf.

Over the weekend, videos captured Trump's two caddies walking ahead of Trump's golf cart before one caddy appears to drop a ball on the course. Trump then hops out of the golf cart and walks to the ball as if it were there the whole time. The person Trump appeared to be playing with was following in his cart and walked over to the ball with Trump.

According to Dawsey, the team captured audio of Trump complaining that the Secret Service is in the trees and bushes all over his golf course as security — and measure shown to be necessary when a man was accused of shooting at Trump through a fence in Sept. 2024 while he was playing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

According to Trump, the agents being in the trees at his courses "made it harder to move the ball when he had a bad lie," wrote Dawsy on X.

“I hit a ball down the fairway, it's in a little rough, and there's a guy standing behind a tree, 'Good morning, sir.' And I got a ball with a horrible lie. I'd go like this. Nobody would know the difference. I can't because, he said, they're all looking down at me horrible. It's a horrible situation to be in," Trump said of his security during his games.
