ex-President Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at low-info Boomers like my religions aunts. I have two questions:

a) Is anyone here who supports Trump bothered by lies like this?

b) Does anyone know what he's even talking about here? Like is there some grain of truth that he's embellishing on bigly?

Ok i follow the Logic so basically his claims about being "champion" even of a tournament are almost certainly trash talk , typical trump lies. KS:ABSOLUTELY

That said, I know nothing of golf in particular but j would expect a steep drop in skills over 65-70, isn't 77 and playing vaguely decently already something uncommon? Or the game is different from many other sports?


Again, average player at 60+ shoots 92. A small percentage will break 80. The guys that play better than 80 are in the group I frequently played with. The guy who routinely shoots between 75-78 could beat me, but only if I am playing poorly. Yet 75-78 is a fantastic place to be relative to all the other golfers out there.

In specific terms, if DJT was followed by a USGA scorekeeper who kept an accurate score...... if he shoots a 79, it would be the highlight of his life. (I have no idea if he scored better as a young man or not... I'm just saying the current DJT and 79 do not happen EVER).

Trump's golf game being criticised, quick, not-a-Trumper losen to the rescue!

For his age I think he is a pretty good golfer. OMG that makes me a Trumper.

I agree with you that A isn't really influencing an election since there was exactly 0% to change the outcome of an election, but many dems think there was a "serious risk" of a few 100 people going inside a building will end the country as we know it.

The people that believe this nonsense aren't just the people walking around with tin foil hats - there are some people who you would believe are totally normal until you bring up trump and th

Well not surprising baham has difficulty with math knowing how economics is so hard for him and blind he is on what happened that day ….

Of the more than 1,265 individuals charged since Jan. 6, 2021, department prosecutors have secured more than 718 guilty pleas -- including 213 who pleaded to felonies that include assaults on federal officers, obstructing law enforcement and seditious conspiracy.

Lol Mickey. Stay ignorant, bang on brand for your political leanings.

What part(s) do you disagree with?

What part(s) do you disagree with?

Your characterisation of what happened up to and on Jan 6th in regard to Trump's efforts to interfere with the election and ultimately remain in power when he lost is fantastically inaccurate and woefully incomplete. But you know this, because it has been explained to you on this very forum multiple times by multiple posters and you are not such a moron as to be unable to understand basic English, so the only remaining conclusion is that you are being wilfully ignorant and deluding yourself. As I say, right on brand.

In any case, I am not about to waste my time repeating something that has been explained to you 100 times already and you choose to ignore.

Thoughts on Kim Jong-Il's legendary 38 under?

Bit of background - He shot it on Pyongyang's 7,700-yard championship course when he was 52 years old. He was only 5ft3 but still managed to hit 11 hole-in-ones. Oh, and it was also the first time he'd ever played golf...

It's no wonder Donnie seems to have such respect for the N.Korean leaders, they are clearly golfing juggernauts!


by chillrob P

They did shut down what they could, and then most states followed their lead. You guys seem to conveniently forget about Trump initiating things.
Or blame Fauci for it, when he couldn't do anything not allowed by Trump.

No. President Trump was the one fighting to re-open the country against all the liberal governors who wanted to keep it closed.

Trump wanted a 10 day pause to stop the spread of a disease. The democratic governors are the ones who fought him to keep it for closed much longer.

I mean they play bridge but the drop in quality after 70-72 on average for men in bridge is gigantic, then ofc as it's always the case there are outliers.

Coupled with his version that the Democrats masterminded the BLM riots where millions of people were killed, there is no point of trying to have any rational conversation with him about the "Jan 6th patriot tour of the capital building."

Does Trump really appear to be an outlier for athleticism, physical fitness or health to you?

You are trying to characterize trump's actions on and before 1/6 conclusively show he was trying to overthrown the gov't which unfortunately for you just isn't true. His involvement is debated by reasonable people from both sides.

Nobody trying to rally the troops to do something as absurd as trying to take on the most powerful country in the history of the world in a battle without weapons isn't ever going to use the word "peacefully" when referring to what the troops should do. There is still a debate on what extra security measures he attempted to put in place to protect the capital before and on 1/6.

Is MGT = marjorie green taylor? I googled "who is mgt" and that is who came up.

If so, I don't think I have ever written her name on 2+2 or ever spoken her name in my life.


Mickey, as I say, all your points have been rebutted 100 times already in this and other threads. If you want to stick your fingers in your ears, nobody else can help you understand, and I'm certainly not about to waste my time trying.

The best one is Clinton being responsible 8 years later he left office of the gfc in 2008 .


i know someone who golfed with trump.
got the opptorunity through jon smoltz,who my friend met through poker home games.
confirmed the rumors were true that he is a cheater at golf.

one funny story from the round.
trump asks this guy, "what do you do for a living"
friend says, "poker player"
trump. "nice! did you know that i own a casino?"

this was well after his casino went out of buisness. friend did not know how to respond.

"Yes, I heard your business was a house of cards".


Ok so we now agree Trump cheated to win the club championship and is evil and a threat to democracy.

Next thing you know he will employ all his lawyers to make sure RFK and no labels are not on the ballot . Oh wait that’s Biden the man that can eat as much ice cream as he can bargain freeze can’t occur

So you believe trump when he says he won the election in 2020 ?
Answer this , how do you call someone trying to deny the result of an electoral vote by overturning it ?
Do you believe overturning an election illegally by any means is acceptable ?
is overthrowing that different in the result ?


Yes , if mgt can win in certain part of the country , you surely can as well regardless the lies you keep repeating to yourself .


Literally all Mickey cares about is that some people who, if they ever met him, would consider him a pissant not worthy of shining their boots get a tax cut.


The insurrection hoax is the new Russia, Russia, Russia hoax. Same old strategy. Repeat a lie often enough and dumb people start to believe it's the truth.

It's in the democrat instruction manual.

What is your golfing experience?


A full fledged MAGAt calling someone dumb is......something.

What is your golfing experience?

I’ve been playing for a long time . My best score is 81 . I would say now I shoot in the mid 90s . Though I play by the rules and tend to hit off the whites . Definitely not as talented as you are at the game . We do gimmes to speed up the game

I would call myself a recreational golfer

I hope to still be playing at Trumps age
