“It’s quite ironic that we’re going to Mexico after being at Doral,” McIlroy added. “I guess we’ll just jump over the wall.”

Well Putt, Rory!

“No different than Nabisco, Carrier and so many other American companies, the PGA Tour has put profit ahead of thousands of American jobs…"

And no different that Trump:

Since 2010, nearly 300 United States residents have applied or been referred for jobs as waiters, waitresses, cooks and housekeepers there. But according to federal records, only 17 have been hired. In all but a handful of cases, Mar-a-Lago sought to fill the jobs with hundreds of foreign guest workers from Romania and other countries.

“Grupo Salinas, a Mexican conglomerate, won the title sponsorship in an $18 million deal.”

Used to be plain old “Clownstick” till just a few generations back.

Then some social-climbing ancestor treated the Kaiser’s mistress’ hemorrhoids, or some such.

Suddenly, it’s “VON Clownstick” this and “VON Clownstick” that.

I got your nobiliary particle right here, pal!

Uppity briefadel…

So, he ADMITS that the only reason he is running for President is to MAKE MONEY off of the position.
“I’m Shocked, SHOCKED to find this out…” not.

You got it in one.

“They’re called ‘World Golf Championships’ events for a reason,” the world’s No. 1-ranked player, Rory McIlroy, said at a Wednesday press conference, according to The Herald.

It was one thing when Rump played the benign carnival barker for the domestic rubes but it was another thing entirely when he opened the floodgates of White American nationalism for the entire world to see. I think kinda like what happened with North Carolina, the corporate world isn’t willing to jeopardize their brands alienating potential wealthy foreigners and sponsors.

Trump is such a great businessman, and his name and brand so powerful, he couldn’t rustle up a single sponsor to host a tournament that has been a PGA mainstay for more than a half-century. What a clown,and what a fraud.

Calling one of them a “sleaze” seems to have pissed off the stenographers. Time will tell if they can maintain the anger.

Are you thinking of someone in particular ? Someone, who could use some positive news?

Yes, I believe that he’s thinking of someone worth $10 billion and for whom $18.1 million should be a drop in the bucket.
