Trump bragged of winning both the club championship trophy and the senior club championship trophy at the Trump International Golf Club in Florida.

Biden tweeted from his personal account that it was “quite the accomplishment” for the former president to win a pair of trophies from his own club:

I also like this one:

“Just the other day a defeated-looking man came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, I have crushing debt, and I’m completely wiped out,’” Biden said at a fundraiser. “And I had to look at him and say, ‘Donald, I’m sorry. I can’t help you.’”

Didn't this exact scenario happen with Kim Jong Un playing golf in North Korea? (I mean, I know that's their general shtick anyway, but still)

Dear leader scored 18 straight holes-in-one, and furthermore accomplished this feat whilst riding a patriotic unicorn and leading its vulnerable offspring to a new, highly advanced North Korean Unicorn Habitat, simultaneously fighting off multiple waves of Capitalist Bear and Tiger covert assault forces!

a large and golfing talented membership

It’s awkward phrasing and needs a hyphen between golfing and talented, but I think it’s generally cromulent. The way I read it is that it was a challenge because there’s a large number of members who are talented at golfing.

That said, when it’s your club, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the trophy. You can do anything.

Kind of a tangent, but seeing these two raisins in the thumbnail made me hate life

At least Joe looks human.

Do we know why the oompa loompa is so orange?

He uses spray tan and dyes his hair. Just happens to do too much spray tan and looks orange. That's why for example the Simpsons Trump has flesh-colored circles around his eyes, people wear goggles when they get spray tans and it leaves a distinctive look.

We can't do better because many voters are racists, gerrymandering, unlimited money in politics, media wants to sell eyeballs to have you view pharm, insurance, and car ads, We truly live in the best of all possible worlds.

Pfft. Don Poorleone needs to up his game. I mean, it's a matter of public record that Kim jong un wins his golf tournaments with holes in ones on all holes, and the last one even lept out of one hole into the other. On. The. Same. Swing. His buddy Putin also wins elections like it's it's hobby or something.

hes so orange in that picture it's weird...

I was so confused, I thought it was some ridiculous face swap at first glance...

3 popups, 1 system notification for push messages and an add that covers 65% of the screen. Thank you Mr. Huffington, you really made me want to use your site.

Do you not use uBlock Origin?

I usually do but the app on my phone that I use for Lemmy was set to Chrome as default browser that doesn't have that.

Also why the fuck would they make something that takes their income away mandatory for a good experience on their site.

Isn't that a bit like Putin declaring he won the Russian presidential election?
