If you want to take a mulligan because you're working on your shot, fill your boots. Dropping random balls and then giving yourself trophies is pretty much the most infantile activity I can think of.
Hey! My 12th Birthday Bowling Trophy is held in high regard in my trophy cabinet!!

Granted if you grew up with my parents making it to 12 was pretty much a miracle in and of itself, but thats not the point!

Real life is a comedy movie now. That #### is literally in all comedy movies. Just so hilariously infantile.

The whole point of Trump cheating at golf is to show dominance. He knows everyone knows he's cheating, but are so subservient that they won't say so out loud.

Yeah, it’s typical dictator stuff. People who support the “strong man” approach to governing, actually respect a leader that has flagrant disregard for the truth. Being able to cheat and lie with impunity is a show of strength no matter how outlandish it is.

Maybe the only way to join his club(s) is if you have about a 50 handicap too.

You have to have a aim for 18 or less, those are the only numbers Trump relates to

There was astory about one of his 'Club Championships' if i recall it correctly, he wasnt there for it so some club member won it. Then trump showed up at a later date, played a round, said he shot a better score and thus he was the actual Club Champion and changed the record.

Even worse, there was a time he found the real club champion playing a round with his kid and challenged him right then and there. The guy didn't want too but relented. Trump shoots his ball into the water, so then walks up to the guy's kid's ball on the green and plays it like it was his

Brutal that all this stuff (cheating, demented rants, clear misunderstanding of basic math) happens in plain view of everyone.
and yet
he's still rather popular, nobody around him says anything and there's a decent chance he wins another election.
scary really

This is intriguing to me.

On the one hand...term limits. It should be impossible. We should be rid of this fool shortly.

On the other? Rules haven't stopped him before and, those term limits are rules of law, to which the Cheeto King does not hold.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

I don't think it'll be all that complicated. Republicans will nominate him because they are feckless cowards, or toadies happy enoguh to see this new direction, he'll run, someone will sue and the case will go to the Supreme Court, where they'll use technicalities to say whatever the #### gives Trump the right to run again.

Or something similar. It really doesn't matter. The SC doesn't follow the rule of law anymore. Congress doesn't care. By 2028 so many institutions will have been corrupted there will be no way for him to lose.

The only thing stopping Trump "winning" in 2028 will be him being dead.

I don't get this vague confusion. He tells everyone what he's gonna do, and then he does it.

It's not confusion, it's cognitive dissonance. His supporters can't simultaneously argue that he upholds freedom and justice and the constitution and say that he'll wantonly break it. It's always the mental gymnastics after it happens that allow them to justify it. They rarely ever pre justify things, just act in dissonance until they have to come to terms with it, then they do immediately and forget about it.

I had heard they werent getting enough gestapo recruits so they changed the eligibility of who could apply, like age limits, both upper and lower.

Probably any IQ requirements as well...

If by intriguing you mean scary as ####. They’re ####ed down there, there isn’t even a question. If he’s alive, he’s president.

Even if not, I’d be shocked if the Democrats can even win an “election” going forward. They’ve gutted everything, I have no believe these are fair going forward.

Reminds me of that hockey game where Putin scored 15 goals or whatever it was

Hated MTG up until a couple months ago. Have found myself agreeing with her twitter posts the last number of weeks. She’s stepped away from the Trump and AIPAC/Isreal tit sucker mold.
