Can you believe trump caught cheating in golf while in Scotland?!!

Unbelievably stupid!
If Biden, Harris, Obama, Clinton had done this, the GOP would have tried to impeach.
But what will happen here? 0
Just another day in our nutty nation.

Golf is supposed to be a game of integrity. If you cheat at it, you're cheatng yourself and the game,

This from a long-time hacker.

The guy is always golfing, always on camera. Nobody has filmed something like this before? Is this Trump's first time cheating and it just happened to get caught on camera?

Or are American news outlets afraid to piss off the man-child?

It's a hell of deal when we need overseas news outlets to report the truth because Americans are afraid of their own President.

His cheating at golf is legendary & has been for years.
There are touring pros that simply refused to play with him because of his blatant & egregious cheating.
This is nothing new.
The only thing new is that it got caught on video.

Even more unbelievable to me is the question of why he insists on playing from the edges of roughs, hazards, and traps? Everyone knows he holds countless championships and that he only chooses to make the game difficult, not for his own pleasure but to share with the world his great mastery of it. Every child molesting, tobacco spitting, coal rolling cheater knows that his ball was in the middle of the fairway, a chip shot from being on in two on a challenging 520 yard dog leg. How nice of him to entertain us. Always thinking of others.
Now what's wrong with Democrats? Why can't they simply bask in his glory and worship him?
(alright, now that I've outlied Trump I'll have to change my clothes.)

One day folks will get it - in his twisted head Trump trumps every other human being. Bow down or I will destroy you. Rules, laws, norms, recognition that you are in someone else’s country do not effin apply.
He is the definition of the ugly American - at home and abroad.

and photos of him on the courses all picture him with a totally disgusted expression on his face. One video showed his caddy gently dropping a golf ball on a fairway. The world can see what he is and questions why so many in our country cannot.

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

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.
