Does he even drive his own golf cart? Have we seen him drive a golf cart? That kind of child would hire a golf cart chauffeur. I mean, does he have the attention span to drive one of those things halfway out the fairway? He would get bored and end up – squirrel! – in the woods. ---

Well, well, well. Looks like the bus clusterfuck is [business as usual.](https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/cm/hundreds-stranded-cold-waiting-buses-150155702.html) > For months, the Trump campaign has utilized the practice of busing supporters from parking lots to the rally sites as a way to accommodate the large crowds. His events have been held in locations such as small airports that don’t normally draw rally sized crowds and therefore don’t have onsite parking available to support the crush of people and crowds. > > That has created a scenario where thousands of people are left to wait for hours after the event ends for buses to shuttle them back to their cars. At an event in Gastonia, North Carolina, last Wednesday hundreds of supporters were forced to make the decision to either wait for the bus or walk several miles down a busy road, without sidewalks, to their parking lots. > > Even those who make it on a bus, only do so after a long wait packed in with hundreds of other people – most not wearing a mask – until they board the bus where every single seat is taken and no social distancing is practiced. ---

> [@eschereal](#): > > Does he even drive his own golf cart? I actually know the answer to this. The answer is an emphatic Yes! He needs to cheat on the golf course, so he will often try to go first and be half way down the fairway before the whole group has hit so he can improve his lie and/or interfere with the other balls without getting caught (though obviously people often let him get away with it).
