According to sportswriter Rick Reilly, "At Winged Foot, where Trump is a member, the caddies got so used to seeing him kick his ball back onto the fairway they came up with a nickname for him: 'Pele.'”

There's an anecdote in Careless People about Mark Zuckerberg's entourage blatantly letting Zuck win at Settlers of Catan, and when the author (Sarah Wynn-Williams) got so sick of it she called him out to his face, everyone acted incredulous, like she'd accused him of eating a puppy. 1/2

I personally witnessed strongman Hun Sen of Cambodia cheating at golf. Then he cornered my husband in the club house and started bragging about his score. He was the only one oblivious to how embarrassing the whole scene was. Everyone knew he cheated regularly, but no one ever said a word.

I suspect it's the same with Trump. I wouldn't be surprised if (would even assume that) the ass-kissers and suck-ups who golf with him to network, gladhand, make deals, and influence him not only turn a blind eye to his cheating, but even assist in it when they can. No character, some people.

My guess is that Trump's supporters who are golfers also cheat, so they find this endearing, not problematic. Meanwhile, Trump's supporters who don't golf just assume that all rich people (including and especially democrats) cheat at everything and so this is just the way the world works.

I hate Trump and golf a bit. Improving your lie a little if you're playing a casual round with friends is ok. Taking the ball out of a trap or the rough is a douche move. The truly galling thing is that he pretends to win competitive tournaments, which are much stricter than a casual round.

It's consistent with his actions -- totally immoral and selfish -- in every other sphere of life so it does tell us something important about his character. Also I think it partly explains his ability to appeal to his base. He'll say whatever they want to hear with no regard for the truth.

My issue with Trump's golf are his claims that he wins EVERY club championship he plays in. That is such utter BS. He's got a decent swing. Probably shoot 90-100ish, like a lot of guys. He just can't allow himself to admit that he's just average.
