They keep playing that clip of his caddy dropping a ball, and making fun of how he tried to do it slyly but it was obvious.
I just saw it again on Colbert, and I legitimately think the caddy is only trying to fool trump.
trump is 100% the guy to blame caddies if he fucks up, so the only caddies he likes are ones that can trick him into thinking he’s great. No one he’s playing with would ever call it out.
The only person they need to fool out there, is trump…
He legitimately might think he’s really a generational golfer. For the same reason every billionaire legit thinks they’re a genius.
I mean, you’re still playing with 3 other people, so if they’re watching you breaking the standard rules without agreeing from the start things like “everyone gets a mulligan per 9” or “take a free drop if you shotgun a beer”, that’s a poor reflection on your honesty.
That’s why these stories of Trump ring true, because it really doesn’t matter and if you cheat when it doesn’t matter, then what do you do when it does?
