LOL no. Just no. Trump hasn't shot a legit 79 or less on a legit course in decades. And I'd say the same thing about any other fat, out of shape, slob of a 77 year old man regardless of his politics. Breaking 80 is really freaking hard.

All you have to do is see him swing one time.

My father-in-law routinely shoots below 80 and he's 81. I can attest to it because I've played with him.

Of course, this includes at least one subtle ball kick per hole, a couple of hand placements of the ball on a high spot of grass, at least 2 mulligans, forgetting that he lost one in the woods, and a pickup any time he's less than 5' from the hole. Oh, yeah, and all that from the yellow tees.

So, yeah. Trump probably does shoot low 80s.

Just like everything else with Trump, all he would have to do is play in public with the cameras on to settle this.

Because Rory wouldn't just say that to be polite to POTUS, right? Do you think he'd really go out of his way to tell the world just how bad of a golfer Trump is and how much he cheats? Come on man. We've seen him golf. He may be a "fine" golfer for a 77 year old dude. Or even slightly above average. But in no world other than his own and the MAGAtsphere is he a good golfer capable of winning a single club championship, much less several.

if you expect an over 70 year old to play completely by the rules you are out of touch imo. they cant take the shots from the bunkers, waters, etc. its too steep of whatever for them. theyd break a leg trying to do so.

you took the one thing trump is actually good at, objectively, and tried to spin it to your narrative. you are trying to smear the man, with lies, again. carry on...

So now we've settled on "he can score well as long as he cheats"? Ok, I'll agree with you on that one. Let's also add "he can break 80...on the front", or "he can break 80...on a par 3 course".

no, but dont expect he plays every ball from the bunker etc. if he doesnt land in an obstacle hes fine. and will most likely beat you, at 77. lmao

yeah ok, but not good enough.



thesis:

hes the best golfer who has ever set foot on a golf course at age 78.

nobody can drive the ball longer than him at age 78.

Take the best 5000 golfers 40 years ago aged 35 to 40 in 1984.

Do you think none of them still play at least for fun?

Any of them will be better than trump (and better than 99.5% of the 75-80y old today).

If I were to say "he is an above average golfer for a 77 year old", would that satisfy you? Because I have no problem saying that, and then following it up with the fact that an above average 77 year old golfer is still a 77 year old golfer and isn't competing with younger, stronger, better golfers. The ones who actually do play by the rules. When you have to add in "for a 77 year old", you're kinda saying he's just not that good. "Man she is hot.....for a 60 year old lady anyway", means she just isn't that hot.

When you start arguing about how good a serial liar is at golf, it's time to take a break from the interwebz.

Fight the good fight, washoe.

I would wager large sums of money(if I actually had it) that every course within 60 miles of me has at least one person Trump's age that would beat him day after day after day. And I live in the Phoenix area, where there are hundreds of courses.


Edit: I'm in a discussion with washoe about whether or not Trump is as good at golf as he claims. JFC what has my life become?
