It’s even worse because they let him openly cheat on top of it.

Worse too is that said child then feels the need to engage in the gloating _and_ sore winnerism.

He lies about everything else. Why not golf?

I imagine it works something like this. He writes whatever he wants to on the scorecard and announces he “won” at the end of the game like it’s a foregone conclusion.

He laughs and “jokes” the whole time. Meaning belittling and insulting other people while puffing himself up. “Isn’t it amazing I got a hole in one there?” He swung the fucking club like 57 times. His sycophants laugh like it’s the the funniest fucking joke they’ve ever heard because they’re worthless human beings.

It’s how he treats everything and everyone. He did it to the country and half of us shrugged and went along with it like everyone in his worthless fucking life.

His favorite trick is he’ll be lying four on the green from 10 feet away and say, “that’s a gimme,” and mark it 4.

Oh, I’m sure that he shot a 70 on a legitimate golf course.

A legitimate nine-hole golf course, that is.

Or he could try disc golf (frolf!) but that might be a little bit woke for him.

An artist in British Columbia created a portrait of trump using watercolour paint made with horse manure and exhibited it in a show. It sold on the first day of the show to an anonymous buyer for $1800.

Love it! That the, um, material used is so appropriate is just an added bonus. The artist absolutely captured him,

I saw this on YouTube today but don’t know if it’s been posted here or not.

Trump’s former bank detected possible money laundering patterns and told them they were closing the several hundred accounts.

Trump’s family trust, etc. was able to find a new bank and it all ended well.

End of story. Not.

The bank hadn’t told anyone the reason , they had a new bank so what was the problem?

Trump, being Tump sued the bank. It’s been dismissed twice so far and the bank has filed a motion to dismiss again.

No one would have known if he hadn’t have sued the bank.

But money laundering is no surprise to anyone.

Just to be clear for the peanut gallery, the story isn’t “the bank found evidence of money laundering”, it’s the “patterns” bit. Banks monitor transactions indicative of potential illegal activity and “debank” customers where they believe the risk to be high because the banks themselves face liability (and huge regulatory fines) if they don’t.

Banks do this all the time. It’s just that, as you say, usually the clients aren’t stupid enough to announce to the world that they’ve been debanked because they’ve been flagged for representing a high risk of criminal conduct.

I believe this is the story you are looking for:

[Capital One says it closed Trump Organization accounts over money-laundering concerns](https://www.npr.org/2026/08/02/g-s1-136834/capital-one-trump-bank-anti-money-laundering)

They also sued Morgan Chase, but I don’t know that he was debanked there for money laundering.
