I for one am still waiting. We elected this idiot so we want desperately for him to perform; so far he hasn't.
"Conservatives want to suppress all the bad things about Trump"

Correction, Conservatives want to dispel all the bad things and lies told about Trump just as this thread started with a lie.

Trump was NOT riding on the green.

A leftist started this thread saying Trump WAS riding on the green for no other reason then to complain about Trump an make him look bad, AGAIN.

It BACKFIRED and proved why the OP has no CREDIBILITY!

"but nothing is"

1st, that is B.S.

You just DON"T LIKE what has been done.

2nd, there such a thing in the Senate called the "Filibuster".

You might want to look it up and how even the threat of it affects getting legislation passed.

50 feet x 18 holes = 900 feet

I know it DOES make me "feel the burn".

  • He just signed the VA Accountability act into law. - It addresses the huge abuses at the VA under the Obama administration. Gives patients protections.
  • He just signed the Whistleblower protection act into law. - Obama was known for relentlessly pursuing whistleblowers. They have protection now.
Trump has now signed more bills into law than Obama did at this point in his presidency.

Of course the Trump deranged don't acknowledge this. They'd rather harp about a golf course putting green. But the voters know. This is why Trump's party keeps winning elections.

In fact, Trump has signed a plethora of bills, proclamations, EO's, etc., into law since he became president. They can all be found here https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/p...-signed-so-far and since most of them are naming days National X day, or weeks National X week, and between 10 and 20 others are EO's repealing earlier EO's of other presidents, I fail to see what actual legislation, proposed by congress and ultimately passed and signed by the president, has been accomplished, including any of his much touted campaign promises, which were all apparently going to be made into law immediately.

That is kind of smarmy.

Golf is a funny game with definite rules and then a 'code of conduct' for the game and for behaviour on the course.

It's the way it has been forever....and you would be hard pressed to find a real golfer that doesn't abide by those rules and that conduct.

Except for Trump......he owns it so he can do whatever he pleases......hmmmm. No appreciation for the rules, the conduct....and in truth - for other golfers.

The reason that carts aren't allowed on the greens is because they damage the greens. Greens are highly maintained and lovingly and painstakingly curated. Driving a cart on them ruins them. That's just a discourtesy to his customers.

It's really trivial to most but indicative of Trump and his character.

If it was one isolated incident folks wouldn't even talk about it. They would brush it off as Trump being a bull in a china shop and not understanding...but this is consistent with how he does things...pushing another world leader to get to the front kind of thing. He's Trump -- who cares is his attitude.
lmao...Save the hypocrisy. The government doesn't live by the rules they impose on the rest of us either and you love you some Federal Government. The big wigs at companies don't follow the same rules the employees do either. They can come and go as they please while you will be fired for doing so. These examples are all around us and have been for hundreds of years.

it wasn't proven to be wrong. a link to a site was posted here where on page 9 of a 9 page thread one or two people are speculating where he actually was driving his cart by looking at an arial view map of the course and guessing where the person was who filmed trump driving his cart? that is hardly proof.

that video shows him driving on the green and there is a still photo with him and several other men and at least two carts right next to the hole/flag.

for a golf club that costs $350,000 initiation fee to join and then an annual fee of around $20,000...i don't blame people that are members expecting an impeccable course. if that means that people are not supposed to drive golf carts on the green, then no one, including trump, should do that. it is even worse that he does it on his own course. he is showing no respect for all the people who pay big bucks to be members and play there.

Well, will he drive on the green again?

Perhaps he will start driving into the sand traps too.

What if he drives his cart into the water? Start preparing yourself's Trumpers for that one.

But it was his golf cart and his water .. so what?

There is a some people should not be allowed to drive a car. Ever see Trump driving a car?
