'This is grift': Internet flays Trump for ordering presidential seal on his golf course tee markers

President Donald Trump was pilloried on Monday after a report revealed that he had possibly violated the law by ordering golf course tee markers with the presidential seal.

According to a ProPublica investigation, “the Trump Organization has ordered the manufacture of new tee markers for golf courses that are emblazoned with the seal of the President of the United States.” Experts noted that the move may run afoul of U.S. laws that state the seal cannot be used for commercial purposes.

The idea also did not go over well on Twitter, where readers lamented that Trump would never be held accountable for the possible crime.

Either they voted for him despite that, or in a number of cases, they voted him because of that.

PINO lost the popular vote by three million and barely squeaked by in the several key electoral college states that spelled doom to the rest of us. The lunatic fringe vote was enough to irreparably fuck the whole country.

I have one magic asset no one can touch: I don't play golf.

I don't really have any other qualification for the job, but Trump has proved that being unqualified for the job is no disqualification.

I can't believe the do-nothing republicans are allowing him to get away with this shit. There is NO accountability whatsoever.

VOTE THEM OUT AND LOCK THEM UP!!
