I think Congress has already said if he tries to do any such sabotage, THEY will provide the money. What a sorry spiteful little bitch he is.

[QUOTE=Loser Donald]

That’s right, folks - _Golf_ magazine is part of the vast, international fake news conspiracy to take down President Snowflake.

I mean, if even a low-circulation special-interest magazine is Fake News, just imagine who else could be involved. _Southern Living_? _Pro Wrestling Illustrated_? Heaven forfend, _Skymall_? How deep does this rabbit hole go?

If only you knew. In truth Hillary[sup]\*[/sup] won the election and is currently occupying the White House, but the lying fake media will never tell you that.

From time to time, I find myself believing that I can no longer be surprised by this pathetic baby. And then something like this tweet comes along. He is claiming that a golf magazine made up a story about him. Not a part of the liberal, mainstream media, and not a story about something illegal he has done, or a story suggesting that his victory in November was less that an epic landslide, but a story suggesting that he is crass. Surely even he knows that he is crass. Certainly everyone who voted for him knows. What is the point of this tweet?

The Golf Magazine article is fantastic. I’m pleasantly surprised at the caliber of the article, especially the in-depth investigative aspects.

> **[First Golfer: Donald Trump's relationship with golf has never been more...](https://golf.com/lifestyle/celebrities/first-golfer-donald-trumps-relationship-with-golf-has-never-been-more-complicated/)**
>
> Donald Trump is never more at home than he is on the links. But, as with everything in the life of a President, his relationship with the game—and the relationships he's built through it—are more complicated now.

It’s actually pretty balanced in its depiction of Trump and it goes into great detail about a lot of the legal battles surrounding his golf properties. He’s a big old tax dodger and he keeps 8 goats on his Bedminster golf course in order to claim a tax break for agricultural use. And he’s constantly suing cities to get the tax values reduced. And he once sued the Palm Beach Airport, claiming they were routing planes over his course out of spite.

I’m really surprised that he latched onto the quote about the WH being a dump as the source of his complaint, especially since the article includes his denial. I would have thought he’d be more upset about being called a cheater.

That is easily solvable by taking to twitter ranting about how unfair it is the stupid rules allow for vetoes to be overruled.

What I don’t understand was why he signed it. I’m not sure when Congress went (is going?) to recess, but could Trump have “pocket vetoed” it, or allowed it to become law without his signature? Whichever way it worked out, would that have been a better approach?

The only thing that I can think of is that he wanted to write a whiny signing statement.

Congress never recesses anymore. All they need is every three days(?) someone shows up and bangs a gavel (or something along those lines). That means Congress is still “in session”.

Well, \*Golf \*magazine is owned by _TIME_, so they’re all just one corrupt left wing LSM conspiracy, right?
