I play Golf....15 Handicap ... I understand..

the game and all the innuendos concerning rules, protocol, and especially the understanding that when playing for money or just playing for bragging rights...One of the most important facets is honesty when reporting your score at the end of each hole.

Honesty is huge and when someone is caught cheating even in a friendly no bet game. It's a huge deal..

All I'm saying that Professional Golf in the USA is comprised of about 95% White...I would say that about 85% of professional golfers in the USA are White Solid Republicans who like so many others feel that ... "Yea he's kind of nutty but..... He's a solid business guy" "Good for economy" .. Get where Im going? they think, who cares if he'e a nut.

But the fact that a professional golfer has nailed Trump as an out and out cheater and has all the goods of authenticity? is now on the shelves of thousands of amateur Golfer's bookshelves who support Trump.

Well My Point? With all his lies which rate about an 8 on the Richter Scale.. This shit could be 9.5 with the millions of amateur golfers who love the game and respect it to the highest degree. This could be huge.. Hey I'm just saying.

Tough course too. Took my handicap down to 10.9. That was almost a year ago. Since then breaking 90 is a struggle. Stupid damn game.
