“At Winged Foot, where Trump is a member, the caddies got so used to seeing him kick his ball back onto the fairway they came up with a nickname for him: Pele,”

Doesn't matter, release the Epstein Files

[-] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 1 year ago

This stuff is getting so comical.

"Trump farted on a photo of Kamala"

"Trump is going to ban the use of the word digit"

"Trump is going to sue the producers of south park, bluey, and coldplay"

"Trump totally did not rape a 13 year old because she looked like his daughter"

"Trump has banned transgender people from using any toilet of any kind"

We all know Trump cheats at everything he can.

[-] fatalicus@lemmy.world 62 points 1 year ago

Including his wives, who he cheats at by raping children.

[-] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 year ago

He cheats on the children by raping his wives. Ivana deposed so under oath.

[-] fartographer@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This works with every ~~proposition~~preposition. At, in, on, with, around... The lying liar who cheats is a cheating liar.

Don't dirty Pele's name like that. (The real one, to clarify, Trump can't fall into a vat of acid soon enough)

[-] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 year ago

The vat would reject him

[-] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

That's too dangerous as he might come back as the Joker.

[-] Honytawk@feddit.nl 66 points 1 year ago

Every rich asshole has lived their entire lives on cheat codes. Just look at Musk cheating on Path of Exile. It didn't even phase him being called out on it, because they do it with every aspect of their lives.

Anti-sport? The better you are, the less you do...

[-] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

That's honestly true.

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 57 points 1 year ago

Trump has always been a cheater.

But sportswriter Rick Reilly, who once golfed with Trump, believes the president cheats on the green. He previously told MSNBC, “He cheats like a mafia accountant,” and declared Trump’s wins to be “fake as Velveeta cheese.”

“He’s never won a championship at a course he doesn’t own and operate,” Reilly alleged. “He’s played in Pebble Beach, he’s played in the Tahoe one, where there are rules and judges and cameras. And in those, he’s never finished in the top half. So he wins when anybody who disagrees that he won is out of the club. That’s how he gets it.”

Now about those Epstein files...?

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

He's a well known cheater at golf. This isn't new.

[-] MrMcGasion@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

Neither is his friendship with Epstein. Apparently half the country wasn't paying attention in 2016.

[-] Wolf@lemmy.today 14 points 1 year ago

He’s a well known cheater at everything.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

But is rarely as obvious as this time.

[-] postman@literature.cafe 36 points 1 year ago

You've probably heard of it, but do yourself a favour and read Rick Reilly's Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump – (Hachette Books, 2019)

I know little and care less about golf but this book was gripping! Reilly is a great writer and, despite my having read several other books on Trump (Mary Trump, Michael Wolff, etc), I really think Reilly's explains Trumps method of operation better than every other attempt.

It's absolutely shocking what he does in his day to day life. The anecdotes are piled high, the double dealing and fabrications are outrageous. Every single page contains some revelation even more odious than the previous.

A morbid fascination and dogged curiosity regarding the depths of Trump's moral abyss will keep you tutting and eye-rolling to the end.

(Sounds like a sales pitch, I know. But I casually picked it up in a thrift shop for €1. No regrets!)

[-] D_C@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've no idea why the title says "appears to" and "allegedly".

If you have eyes with basic or above vision, and a functioning brain with more than below average intelligence you'll see that there's no appearing to or allegedly about it, it's fucking obvious. Fuck sake.

Also he's on the Epstein list. He's a convicted criminal. He's a rapist of women. And he raped children.

[-] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I guess they do this shit for legal reasons? Since, Trump just loves to shoot lawsuits at anyone in the media.

[-] tylerkdurdan@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

for those who dont want to go to the cesspit that is "X": trumps driving a cart and a man in a red vest is walking in front of the cart towards a bunker. red vest nonchalantly drops a ball for trump to play thats not in a bunker

this means that not only does trump cheat at golf, he uses other people to help him cheat at golf. this seems rather more ridiculous than cheating by yourself

[-] womjunru@lemmy.cafe 13 points 1 year ago

Amazing. Trump levitated that ball out of the man’s pocket using only his mind. A true leader!!

/s

[-] RedGreenBlue@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not sure how golf works. Don't you play by yourself? He cheats himself? If it's about braging; can't he just say he did a hole in one, every stroke?

[-] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

He also doesn't pee or poo. 100% energy efficiency.

[-] aarRJaay@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I thought there was that photo where he shat himself on the golf course.

[-] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 year ago

Well, he doesn't pee or poo on a toilet

[-] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

No way. Not dear leader.

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 5 points 1 year ago

For him not pooing there's a lot of useless shit coming out of his mouth.

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That's why only half goes into the diaper.

[-] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

And also why he wears three diapers at any given moment.

[-] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

If it's about braging; can't he just say he did a hole in one, every stroke?

Like Kim Jong Il.... This is the logical conclusion.

[-] wildcardology@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I believe you go against other player's records at that golf course.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago
[-] hperrin@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago

You mean the pedophile is also a golf cheat? Who knew.

Released the Epstein files.

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Oh hey look, we elected a cheating bankrupt rapist wife-beating pedo Nazi for President!

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

His caddy's name is Smithers.
