He's facing 91 felonies in four different states, but he thinks it's important to cheat everyone on the golf course and brag about it. Priorities, how do they work?
Note that he only wins these "championships" at his own clubs.
Oh, and the fact that there are secret service agents around mean there is no hanky/lanky/panky is unconvincing-- those agents are not there to report his cheating on the course.
C'mon, of course Trump wins fairly! He's a bigly smart business man so he negotiated a 50% discount on his scorecard. That par 4? It's a par 8 for super-smart super-golfer Trump! What an athlete!!
Asking for a friend: do Georgia State Penitentiaries have golf courses?

Trump State Penitentiary. In so doing we recognize the prison's two most famous and most heavily sentenced inmates."
Reminds me of how in the latest Crossfit games they had a "5k Run" and showed how great the times were to show how great crossfitters are. But if you looked closely they didn't have a 5k Meter run. it was 5k YARDS, which is just over 4k meters. So they were trying to show how great crossfitters were by lying.
Granted a 4k run is more than I could manage by a factor of 4k, but come on.

Going to post something in the MTG thread about this.

Eventually he will have to sell that golf course to pay his legal bills.
I don’t believe he will ever exhaust the rubes sending him money. They’ll probably keep sending and cover his funeral even.

Why can't he go to Scotland? It's not like he can't make it there and back in a weekend. Is the cost of flying the trumpplane across the Atlantic and back too high? Has his passport been confiscated as a condition of bail? Would like to dig deeper into this.
IIRC, he had to surrender his passport(s) as a release condition in one of his previous indictments. Doesn't really stop him from fleeing, but makes coming back without consequences difficult.

And, let's face it, saying "I can't go because they took my passport" does not sound as good as "I am staying to FITE THEM!"

Trump raised $7.1 million after Georgia booking, mugshot The former president raised $4.18 million on Friday alone, the single-highest 24 hour period of his campaign to date
Donald Trump has turned his Georgia mugshot into a record-breaking fundraising haul.
The former president has raised $7.1 million since he was booked at an Atlanta jail Thursday evening, according to figures provided first to POLITICO by his campaign. On Friday alone, Trump raised $4.18 million, making it the single-highest 24-hour period of his campaign to date, according to a person familiar with the totals.

The campaign’s fundraising has been powered by merchandise it has been selling through his online store. After Trump was taken into custody, the campaign began selling shirts, posters, bumper stickers and beverage coolers bearing Trump’s scowling mugshot. The items bear the tagline “NEVER SURRENDER!” and range in price from $12 to $34.
Sorry the link is to politico, which is a very agressive/instrusive site with the ads.
"Never Surrender" seems like a great slogan to The Great Anal Pustule as in his mind it equates to Thermopylae or the Alamo or Rourke's Drift..... Trouble is his stance reeks more of Little Big Horn, the Charge of the Light Brigade or the War of Jenkins Ear
I think his supporters should send him every nickel they have, move under a freeway overpass, and learn to eat out of dumpsters. That's really their best option.

Ah, you're referring to the assaults on Cartagena and Havana. I knew that was the name of a war between England and Spain, but not much more than that.
