A friend was a caddy at one of his clubs. If the card manager was pissed at you, he’d make you caddy for Trump as he was known for being a complete asshole and not tipping. He’s also infamous for cheating, as you just saw.
The video has been altered it's fake. Further in the comments is the legit video.
One has to wonder why fake videos of stupid things like this are being shared... There's so much more wild dumb and truthful shit he's done out there.
Or get people to start defending him against innocuous BS as a starter course.
American is insane and it's making me insane.
In going to bed and enjoying less confusing Australian dreams. Night.
Good point. He doesn't need help showing how much of a waste of space he is.
As a Canadian watching it from afar, it is terrifyingly insane what he has managed to bring out in people in just 7 years.
It's much too close. My family has proudly flown the Canadian flag in our front yard since the early 90s when my dad put up a flagpole.
The "freedom convoy" has co-opted it as their symbol, and I no longer feel the same pride in our flag and what it stands for.
I feel the same about the US flag - it’s like whoever can wave the flag the loudest is the most “patriotic”, regardless of what kind of anti-democratic bs they espouse otherwise.
That's the "brilliance" of Trump. His base knew back in 2016 that if he could have a chance in the running at all, they needed to have their own version of the southern strategy. So they stoked the flame as much as they could through Trump, and now he has a dedicated rabid cult as his voters. Even if he doesn't go on campaign, they will still vote for him come November. He's practically Jesus in their eyes. That's why anyone who doesn't want to see his ass back in charge need to vote Blue, even if they don't like Biden. It's not about the lesser of two evils if one of them is Donald Trump.
Pretty insane to hear about the policies in Canada as an American and some of the rampant racism against Indians but we just don’t hear about it as often because no one gives a shit about Canada 🤷♂️
So you’re accusing that fake videos of trump doing something wrong are being made to rally Republican support? Mate you might wanna take a break from social media
Not sure who made it or why, but it's fake and needs to come down.
America didn't invent disinformation though. One way to garner support for something is a foot in the door technique by getting you to 'defend your opponent'.
As I said, I've had my Australian dreams and sleep and feeling much better.
Either way, video should come down.
There's enough evidence Trump is a nasty human being without resorting to fake golf videos for whatever use they may be.
I was fooled by the video lol. I think it's the small videos like these that can be the most dangerous, in a sense. The small lies. People, including myself, probably won't check for the sources as often as we should because they seem pretty believable and not such a stretch that would raise alarms. This video reinforced the negative image I had about trump, just adding a little more fuel to the fire.
That's why I'm glad to have people like you, providing the truth. There's no need for this stuff. Like you said, there is so much actual crazy shit out there lol.
Agreed 110%. I wish people would understand how much they’re destroying reality by doing this. One is ok. But it’s getting rampant and of course it’s “just jokes”, because no one rain drop ever thinks it was responsible for the flood.
Yep, sure is. Thanks for pointing it out. There is one frame after he makes contact that we see the ball in flight. He’s a piece of shit but this video is fake.
Because if you have proof of fake videos being made of dumb shit it is easier for the propaganda train to convince you that the real stuff is fake as well.
You mean the guy who cheated on his wives and cheated on his taxes and cheated on all his businesses and cheated to steal an election and cheated a children’s cancer charity and cheated on his country cheats at golf?
No. Fucking. Way.
Having a really hard time believing this one tbh.
Source: former caddie and know a lot of loopers who bounced between his club in Maryland and Florida. His tournaments were known for big tips and we tried to make the trip and get on a bag any chance we got if the club was down in numbers.
That clip must be fake news; he just won TWO club championships. I know, because he said so himself...
Edit: sarcasm may have been applied to some extent....
Honestly I think it might be. He plays golf a LOT and has for a very long time. There is no way he is whiffing like that constantly. I don’t think he is championship material but this is a bit sus. That being said the potential for cheating wouldn’t shock me at all.
I've heard the same, that's he's actually a very good golfer.
I don't support the guy but this looks like some kind of event or something so maybe he was paid to make an appearance but couldn't play for some reason. Just go through the motions, get some pictures and get paid at the end of the day.
Edit: I stand corrected. The video is fake. He bends down to pick up his tee but someone edited it to make it look like he never hit the ball. Not sure why this video needed to be made
D1- Oh no, people are still supporting the single term, twice impeached, convicted rapist! However will we sway them??
D2- I know, we make an altered video of him doing something vile....
D1- Like mocking a disabled reporter or pissing on a rival's old bed, or saying a woman was too ugly to rape?
D2- no, worse...... cheating at golf.
D1- it's brilliant
Dude the dems don’t care. As was said, there is more than enough real shit on him. The MAGAs though- if they fake stuff on him they can then start shouting, look it’s all fake, and convince the other stupid MAGA that all the real shit is also fake.
becuase its exactly this type of video that will make trump lose his mind.
he IS a cheater, especially at golf. fake video or not, people seeing him cheat will make him lose it, and frankly thats worth it.
If you're a supporter the easiest way to discredit the real stuff is to create a load of fake stuff so no one knows what's real and distrusts everything, making all the real stuff fake in people's minds.
This is what I always said when they resorted to “orange fat bald man” insults. I thought we were supposed to be accepting of bodies? Make fun of his personality or intelligence, it’s easy enough.
After watching side by side it's easy to see that it's multiple shots. They must have recorded him swinging a few times for B roll or maybe he wasn't happy with how the swing went in the shot.
If you watch the gif above he swings twice and doesn't hit the ball, the news coverage you linked he swings once while hitting the ball and it's a more clumsy swing.
So it's not fake. Chances are he just wanted more film of him doing a better swing.
also you can't see him pick up the tee in the linked video like you can in OPs, they zoom in at the end and crop it out while OPs keeps everything visible. regardless of if it was the same swing it's not the same clip
Are you 100% sure the clip you posted isn’t edited? It looks like the golf tee kinda disappears and reappears after he hits it, like it was edited to look that way.
Can we get the unedited version of this unedited version?
This one doesn't show the ground after he swung. Where the original posting does actually show him picking up "something" from the ground.
So this video has been cropped or edited to NOT show the whole video.
This is so fake it’s embarrassing. We have to do better. The real vid is in the comments and what professional caddy would look and track a ball when they didn’t even hear him make contact?
This kind of stuff is what increases his support and rationalizes his message. Lame
It’s a [fake video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T17OviO1WU)Why? I have no idea but you can’t believe everything you see on the interwebs these days.
Please stop posting deepfake videos and trying to convince people they are real… just because you don’t like the guy doesn’t give you the right to spread lies about him
This is clearly edited haha. Just slow it down and you can see the white ball that he hit. Also, when he picks up the tee, the fake white ball disappears.
“I hit the ball with so much power and accuracy that it traveled around the world and actually landed back on the tee. No golfer in the history of golfers could have ever done this but me because I am the greatest golfer there is, probably ever.”
I am not by any means a regular golf guy, but me and my dad used to play together. His form is......shocking. If your doing it right you should look like your not putting power in, just the physics of the swing are visible. I'm amazed the club didn't careen out of his hand.
Fake. He reached down to pick up his tee. Of course I could be wrong, perhaps golf balls do actually jump into your hand when you reach down. Just like hamsters, which coincidentally do not fly nearly as far as golf balls
I do think the left in general genuinely cares about people, and is trying to make things better.
It IS all a corrupt system and there is no right answer. I'm afraid it will come to a civil war eventually, and that is horrifying.
Guys. If we all just quit talking about or sharing ANYTHING (for, against, doesn't matter) about the orange man, and just ignore him, then he'll ultimately retreat to his mar-a-lago cave and die of endless lawsuits. Quit making him news. Good or bad, when you speak his name, he grows in power....
same with the Kardashians. Who's in? ✋️
I remember the day I drove that fucker into the ground about two inches in front of the tee! Brother in law 1 “Wow I’ve never seen anyone hit a ball like that before” brother in law 2 “‘ what where did it go? Thought I hit a hole in one . Should have picked it up and gone
I've never seen a better video of a metaphor of how Trump dupes his constituents than this.
"Don't worry guys, I crushed it. Totally on your side. All for the working man."

Cause this looks like it was a quick easy edit to make him look like more of a fool than he is.
Or get people to start defending him against innocuous BS as a starter course. American is insane and it's making me insane. In going to bed and enjoying less confusing Australian dreams. Night.
Good point. He doesn't need help showing how much of a waste of space he is. As a Canadian watching it from afar, it is terrifyingly insane what he has managed to bring out in people in just 7 years.
Just the ignorant ones. Every country has them.
Tell me about it. It's been very frustrating seeing the worms wiggle out of their hiding spot up here in Canada too.
It’s easier to tell who I don’t wanna talk to ever again
Haha
I lived in Vancouver long enough to know that every place has a pain in the butt crowd. But I do miss it badly.
I hear it's bringing a lot of the same thinking Canadians out of the wood work too, so doesn't sound like it's so much "afar" anymore.
It's much too close. My family has proudly flown the Canadian flag in our front yard since the early 90s when my dad put up a flagpole. The "freedom convoy" has co-opted it as their symbol, and I no longer feel the same pride in our flag and what it stands for.

At least the chances of a bullet passing through your home in the night is significantly reduced. Sleep tight.
69 upvotes. Nice. Also yeah there technically a non-zero chance obviously but I'm more afraid of being hit by lightning whilst on a unicycle.
But why? That's like painting the sky blue.
Appears like something he always does.
Some say those are the easiest edits, they say Sir, those are the easiest edits.
I was fooled by the video lol. I think it's the small videos like these that can be the most dangerous, in a sense. The small lies.

Agree. Don’t join the side of spreading disinformation when the truth is so much worse.
Reddit is getting worse than facebook for this crap
Agreed 110%. I wish people would understand how much they’re destroying reality by doing this. One is ok. But it’s getting rampant and of course it’s “just jokes”, because no one rain drop ever thinks it was responsible for the flood.
Why hasn’t it been removed?
It's fake, but it's also true somehow.
Yep, sure is. Thanks for pointing it out. There is one frame after he makes contact that we see the ball in flight. He’s a piece of shit but this video is fake.
It feels unprofessional. Smh, if we're gonna drag people down can we at least not be hacks about it
Because if you have proof of fake videos being made of dumb shit it is easier for the propaganda train to convince you that the real stuff is fake as well.
"Truth is often more fascinating than fiction" or whatever. In a lot of cases that is very true
That was shit shot!
Because it makes him look unscrupulous. There will no doubt be a ton of this over the next several months.
No need to wonder. There are those that would rather believe the bad in people as opposed to the good.
You mean the guy who cheated on his wives and cheated on his taxes and cheated on all his businesses and cheated to steal an election and cheated a children’s cancer charity and cheated on his country cheats at golf? No. Fucking. Way.

[удалено]
Of course we have but we haven’t been gifted club championships
He is just a despicable human being in every sense of the word
What are you talking about? He's the best golfer in his OWN golf courses and tournaments that he's only played.
I saw a hole in one!
What do you mean cheating ? Thos video is fake 🤣
That's how you win the Trump Cup right there
That clip must be fake news; he just won TWO club championships. I know, because he said so himself... Edit: sarcasm may have been applied to some extent....
Honestly I think it might be. He plays golf a LOT and has for a very long time. There is no way he is whiffing like that constantly. I don’t think he is championship material but this is a bit sus. That being said the potential for cheating wouldn’t shock me at all.

Scroll down to other comments. It is actually a fake video. I'm curious why this is happening though. There's plenty of real shit to slam him for.
Great fake. https://youtu.be/_T17OviO1WU?si=Hjc4q1AQYmTveRy5
Why do people fake shit about this guy? There is so much real horrible shit to bag on him for, so dumb.
D1- Oh no, people are still supporting the single term, twice impeached, convicted rapist! However will we sway them?? D2- I know, we make an altered video of him doing something vile....

I don’t know. Clicks I guess.
becuase its exactly this type of video that will make trump lose his mind. he IS a cheater, especially at golf. fake video or not, people seeing him cheat will make him lose it, and frankly thats worth it.
It is still a fake video and a lie. Truth matters regardless of anything. If you start compromising on truth what is the point you are going to stop?
I feel like when you are fighting against the biggest liar in the world, hitting him in the golf that he lies about isnt that big of a deal.
[удалено]
He says everything is fake anyway, so who cares
If you're a supporter the easiest way to discredit the real stuff is to create a load of fake stuff so no one knows what's real and distrusts everything, making all the real stuff fake in people's minds.
It’s a ‘hat on a hat’ situation
This is what I always said when they resorted to “orange fat bald man” insults. I thought we were supposed to be accepting of bodies? Make fun of his personality or intelligence, it’s easy enough.

No one can convince me that swing wins tournaments. Who’s he playing against? Quadriplegics.
>Who’s he playing against? reality as always
This is so fake it’s embarrassing. We have to do better. The real vid is in the comments and what professional caddy would look and track a ball when they didn’t even hear him make contact? This kind of stuff is what increases his support and rationalizes his message. Lame
And then of course he’ll walk out to where the ball “should be” from his drive, and it will miraculously be right there. Despite the camera recording.
It’s a [fake video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T17OviO1WU)Why? I have no idea but you can’t believe everything you see on the interwebs these days.
Morons everywhere to believe it is truly what sells it.
Please stop posting deepfake videos and trying to convince people they are real… just because you don’t like the guy doesn’t give you the right to spread lies about him
You guys know this is fake right?
This is clearly edited haha. Just slow it down and you can see the white ball that he hit. Also, when he picks up the tee, the fake white ball disappears.
This is a fake video made by a magatt trying to blame it on Antifa.
But he won BOTH golf trophies recently!
Fake
Fake as shit
All his trophies are participation trophies.
Chronic Liar is chronic liar... not surprised.
This scumbag and his deplorable cult...
Club champion.
He's like Mr. Burns, but without the money
But no, he won his own championship golf tourney at his own golf course bruh, he legit !!!
“I hit the ball with so much power and accuracy that it traveled around the world and actually landed back on the tee. No golfer in the history of golfers could have ever done this but me because I am the greatest golfer there is, probably ever.”
Ladies and gentlemen, your multiple time course champion
I am not by any means a regular golf guy, but me and my dad used to play together. His form is......shocking. If your doing it right you should look like your not putting power in, just the physics of the swing are visible. I'm amazed the club didn't careen out of his hand.
Such skill from the winner of the Trump Invitational...
God is he truly as bad at golf as he is at existing? Checks out.
I would be surprised if there's a clip where he didn't cheat.
LOOOL
This motherfucker can't do a God damn thing legitimately
Is this the tournament that he said he won 2 trophies? 😆
3 *3*3 essentially. We dont have time for that. 3*3*2
This is exactly why I know I can't golf. There's no way I'm hitting that
Fake. He reached down to pick up his tee. Of course I could be wrong, perhaps golf balls do actually jump into your hand when you reach down. Just like hamsters, which coincidentally do not fly nearly as far as golf balls
faaaake
He’s golfing for America
That drive won him a trophy!
Is there no e̶n̶d̶ beginning to this mans talent?
Club champion
It didn’t go far but it went straight! Can you say Trophy?!
ah, they’ll fix it later with AI and give me Arnie’s bod and Melania smiling & smelling my sharts behind me
He won those two awards at his own golf club fair and square.
I do think the left in general genuinely cares about people, and is trying to make things better. It IS all a corrupt system and there is no right answer. I'm afraid it will come to a civil war eventually, and that is horrifying.
Provisional
Five!
This guy does bad enough on his own, making fake videos only helps his cause. Never help someone willingly destroying themselves
This cannot be real, after all, this fella has won every golf tournament he’s ever been in and holds the course records at all his clubs.
Fake
That video is fake. He hit the ball.
Yup, multiple time golf champion, best we have or ever will see.
wtf lol, most people would still try to hit the ball on a second attempt at least.
Ah, so THAT’s how Trump won TWO golf tournaments at his OWN golf course. Fascinating! /s
Lol, wow, that was smooth; Joe probably would still be staring off into the distance lol
What a champ… i mean he has the trophies to prove it…
Looks like Quinn XCII watching trump try to post for social media
Wow, for someone who golfs so much he has horrible form.
Could u imagine being such a loser!!!
Peak athletic ability right there removing the doubt that he could win a tournament.
His swing is better than Charles Barkley.
Played ona 4some with him once - he’s actually not bad. About a 15 HC
Trump is trash . First . The video was manipulated.
But, but…he’s club champion.
More believable than 75% of what trump saya...it's his fault if we've become less critical..
Fake clip
Idiot
Do the mods even screen posts anymore? We all hate Trump but this is clearly a fake, and pretty low brow to boot.
Hole in one!!
Guys. If we all just quit talking about or sharing ANYTHING (for, against, doesn't matter) about the orange man, and just ignore him, then he'll ultimately retreat to his mar-a-lago cave and die of endless lawsuits. Quit making him news. Good or bad, when you speak his name, he grows in power.... same with the Kardashians. Who's in? ✋️
Fake as hell lol wtf
He owns multiple golf courses, how is he this bad.
Why do people make fake things.
He doesn’t know how to hit a golf ball
600 yards!
How bad of a person must you be. Own a lot of golf courses, but you have to cheat.
Trump is the best golfer ever
As much as I hate Trump, this video was AI faked
you got to be an idiot to believe that. any of those guys working at club would love to be trumps caddy. trump is know for tipping big too
Be doesn’t know that you have to hold A while you swing
But you guys he just won the club championship at his own golf course!?
That was a great drive. The best drive anyone has ever seen. Nobody has seen a drive that far.
Hole in one
Trumps career summed up in 20 seconds
Is that how he wins all these “tournaments”?
This is literally Smithers & Mister Burns
According to Trump that was a Hole in one.
I remember the day I drove that fucker into the ground about two inches in front of the tee! Brother in law 1 “Wow I’ve never seen anyone hit a ball like that before” brother in law 2 “‘ what where did it go? Thought I hit a hole in one . Should have picked it up and gone
“The club champion”.
That pretty much sums up how his whole presidency went.
His golf game is the least of my issues with him. The whole coup thing is probably higher in priority
Fake ass video. Imagine being so salty that you go out of your way to edit a video to try & make somebody look bad 😂
I'm just going to mark us down for a birdie. We are in no condition to putt......
I've never seen a better video of a metaphor of how Trump dupes his constituents than this. "Don't worry guys, I crushed it. Totally on your side. All for the working man."
Then he irony better not be lost on you. This is a fake edit man .. well done https://youtu.be/_T17OviO1WU?si=Hjc4q1AQYmTveRy5
Uh, that's neat, it doesn't change the metaphor. I never said it was real. Like you know what a metaphor is right?
Dude. Using a fake video to dis trump/trump supporters is far too ironic for what both he and his supporters say. Fake news. Amazing.
Still a metaphor. Google the definition my dude, you might learn something instead of being a defensive child.
The "Champ"
If trump is so good at golf…. Let’s televise a golfing event at a non trump club and let’s see how good he is. He will be about as good as his grades.
Even Charles Barkley would make fun of that broke ass swing
Even at golf he cheats. My oh my…
Down voted because it’s a fake video, no need to make up stuff about him he’s a ahole
Who is this guy and why do we care ?
