If Donald Trump didn’t have enough to worry about today, with the deadline looming for him to raise the bond to cover his legal penalties, he’s also got Joe Biden destroying him online.
However, this time it’s nothing to do with his court cases.
Yesterday, Trump boasted about, yet again, about what a great golfer he is.
Politics, but make it gay!

“It is my great honor to be at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach tonight, AWARDS NIGHT, to receive THE CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY & THE SENIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY. I WON BOTH!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“A large and golfing talented membership, a GREAT and difficult course, made the play very exciting. The qualifying and match play was amazing. A large and distinguished group will be there tonight. Very exciting, thank you!!!” Trump said.
Online, many were thinking the same thing: Donald Trump winning championship trophies at his own golf club, surrounded by supporters and sycophants, was nothing to show off about.
Nobody summed this up better than President Joe Biden, who simply reposted the posting with his own message of congratulations.
“Congratulations, Donald. Quite the accomplishment.”

Ouch. You just know a bottle of Ketchup hit the walls over that one.
A Trump spokesperson attempted to throw shade back at Biden over the congratulatory tweet.
“Crooked Joe Biden is jealous because anything he does physically is an embarrassment— whether it is falling off his bike, whiffing on golf balls, or just generally falling on his ass in front of the world,” they told The Hill.
However, online, many seemed to welcome the reappearance of “Dark Brandon”.

Others simply shared Biden’s opinion on the matter.

Video from last night’s event at Trump’s golf course shows the former president fawning over Jack Nicklaus. The former golf champ presented Trump with one of his trophies, while Melania Trump watched on.
Deadline approaches over legal costs
If Trump was giddy with excitement over his golfing success, Biden’s tweet is sure to have deflated his sails somewhat. Then there’s the matter of those legal fees.
Trump has until today to either secure a bond for $454 million in his civil court fraud trial in Manhattan, or persuade a judge to delay proceedings. That’s the case that found him, and his adult sons, guilty of grossly inflating the value of properties to obtain bigger loans.
On Friday, Trump was still claiming to have nearly $500 million in cash. He just doesn’t want to hand it over.
“I currently have almost five hundred million dollars in cash… The often overturned political hack judge on the rigged and corrupt A.G. case, where I have done nothing wrong, knew this, wanted to take it away from me, and that’s where and why he came up with the shocking number which, coupled with his crazy interest demand, is approximately $454,000,000,” he wrote on Truth Social (in capital letters, of course).
Attorney General Letitia James has already indicated that she intends to start seizing Trump’s assets if he doesn’t come up with the cash or a bond.
Trump’s sons have also been whining about those nasty New York judges coming after them. Eric Trump said yesterday that when he asked people about getting a half-a-billion-dollar bond, people laughed. Who imagined that it would be so hard to find someone to lend that amount of money to Donald Trump over a case he’s likely to lose again at appeal, right?

Eric Trump continued with his ranting yesterday, wailing about the prospect of Trump properties being seized after his dad “built American skylines.”
The entire world is watching this unfold. The notion of seizing properties owned by the Former President of the United States (and the front runner for President in 2024) – properties belonging to a company that has NEVER missed a payment, never been in default, never breached a…

Donald Trump may also likely to find out later today if a date is set for his hush money trial. That’s the criminal trial over payments to Stormy Daniels. His lawyers are again seeking a delay to the proceedings. They say they need more time to wade through evidence documents.

Mister P
The fact that Donny cheats at golf says everything about him.

I wonder what he does if someone (perhaps accidentally) beats him at golf. Does he say “IT WAS RIGGED!!!” and go around for the next three years saying he really won?
jcool
I heard he got a hole in one. and it only cost him $130,000

Chump.

Donny is that person who goes golfing with his employees and forces them to do worse than him.

Joan Crawford always gave Christina a head start in the deep end of the pool…..”I beat you again, little girl!”

Oh boo hoo you stupid bitch.
Trump accused Merchan of being partisan over the trial timing.
“I don’t know how you can have a trial that is going on right in the middle of the election,” Trump said. “It’s not fair.”

It’s just so cringe.
Like talking himself up w/ exaggerations is one thing and cringe enough as is. It’s another thing entirely to give yourself an award at your own club and then go touting it like some accomplishment.
Just so cringe.

It started on day one. The crowd size. RIght wingers enjoy being lied to.

It’s hardly a secret that Trump cheats at golf (like at everything else!). I read years ago from someone who golfed with him regularly how he constantly cheated at the game, but none of his golfing buddies ever complained.

Didn’t Homer find out how Mr. Burns cheated in the same way?

Considering Joe Biden now wears special athletic shoes so he doesn’t fall, takes the short kiddie steps into Air Force One, falls up stairs, falls on stage, falls off his bike and has to directed around by the Easter bunny, he has no room to utter one word about anyone’s physical prowess.
Joe Biden is one good fall away from being replaced on the 2024 Democratic presidential ticket.

Prowess….Wiseman. You decide.

I’d still vote for him over a traitor, but you do you.
How is Putana over in Russia doing?

Former President Donald Trump told a story on Monday in which he claimed that he decided not to list the Trump Media & Technology Group on the New York Stock Exchange, even though the exchange “badly” wanted the company, because businesspeople are “treated too badly in New York” and “don’t want to be attacked by a thug like this horrible attorney general that we have in New York.”
There is one problem. The story does not make any sense.

Who does more damage, the man who won’t take necessary action, won’t enlarge and balance the Supreme Court to the size of a real jury or… the man who manipulates the rules to get his way?
We have a two-tiered justice system that allows politicians to cheat and steal. A truly good person would take action to stop the corruption.
Our pathetic political system of 100% RNC/DNC control has eroded democracy to a mere ghost. While voters demand a ceasefire, corrupt or fearful politicians look the other way and keep supplying lethal weapons. Israel and Ukraine are examples of failed establishment thinking.

How many people here know that the USA engaged in Ukranian regime change and acted to destroy Ukraine’s democratically-elected Poroshenko? DeepState USA organizations should not be allowed to interfere in foreign elections – even if it helps our establishment’s bottom line.
We should celebrate the exist of Victoria Nuland. How many such fiascos can we tolerate? We have not won a war since WWII and that was mostly thanks to 27,000,000 Russians who died fighting Nazis. (America lost 407,301 brave men) Ukraine still has a political party of Nazis that Nuland included in her plan that failed (Azov members).
The truth is in the details, not the propaganda.

Good job trolling for Putin. Do they pay you in Rubles or Crypto?

At least Joe isn’t in need of constant baby Donny diaper changes by the American public.
