Trump was campaigning in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where Palmer was born in 1929 and learned to golf from his father, who suffered from polio and was head pro and greenskeeper at the local country club.

“Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women,” Trump said. “This is a guy that was all man.”

Then he went even further.

“When he took the showers with other pros, they came out of there. They said, ‘Oh my God. That’s unbelievable,’” Trump said with a laugh. “I had to say. We have women that are highly sophisticated here, but they used to look at Arnold as a man.”

I wish to share the brilliant headline I came up with in Political Weirdos for this.

What can I say, I haven't been on stage in over 15 years. You're my audience and sometimes I need to re-use old material.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The fact that this is in white theme caused my brain to glitch for a second.

I'm an old man. Screens aren't supposed to have a black background unless all the text is green.

I actually did have a color monitor for my IIe. I just always think back to the black-and-green Apple monitors when someone talks about dark mode.

[–] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago

DARK MODE IS LIFE.

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Sounds more like a big Palmer, maybe a two Palmer.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, but that's from a liar who thinks pro golfers all shower together.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 7 points 2 weeks ago

It depends on how large your totally not tiny hands are

[–] elliot_crane@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

It’s ok, we forgive you for reusing the line. Fly on Mr. Squid 🤟

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 56 points 2 weeks ago

So basically:

“Arnold Palmer is from here. I used to admire his dick in the shower.”

There's NOTHING More Republican then talking about Penises! Whether a man's Penis or a Child's Penis Republicans LOVE Penises! So much so they Passed Laws allowing them to LOOK at Children's Penises!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Don't forget playing with penises during musicals while surrounded by children.

So it did when he declared he was in love with Kim Jong UN.

[–] flicker@lemmy.world 26 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I... want to know why he said, "With all due respect to women." I'm baffled by what that might mean.
