I literally had to turn it off. What was this golf argument?

[–] Yareckt@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Here's a transcript:

[While talking about the Intelligence Tests he did]

TRUMP: [...] He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. He challenged me to a golf match. He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. [...]

BASH(Moderator): Thank you.

President Biden?

BIDEN: You’re going to see he’s six-foot-five and only 225 pounds – or 235 pounds.

TRUMP: (inaudible).

BIDEN: Well, you said six-four, 200.

TRUMP: (inaudible).

BIDEN: Well, anyway, that’s – anyway, just take a look at what he says he is and take a look at what he is.

Look, I’d be happy to have a driving contest with him. I got my handicap, which, when I was vice president, down to a 6.

And by the way, I told you before I’m happy to play golf if you carry your own bag. Think you can do it?

TRUMP: That’s the biggest lie that he’s a 6 handicap, of all.

BIDEN: I was 8 handicap.

TRUMP: Yeah.

BIDEN: Eight, but I have – you know how many…

TRUMP: I’ve seen your swing, I know your swing.

(CROSSTALK)

BASH: President Trump, we’re going to…

(CROSSTALK)

TRUMP: Let’s not act like children.

BIDEN: You are a child.

I thought that was very funny. This and all the other Senates arent about facts or informing the viewer. It's just two people bragging and insulting each other. Like a rap battle

Trump: want to play golf?

Biden: fuck you you short mother fucker. Do you even lift? Child.

Trump just said Biden sucks at golf, then Biden gave an incoherent response.

Oh man, I wish his response was "Of course I'm bad at golf. I've been too busy leading a country to have time practicing my hand at golfing."

I'm not really a golf person, but from passing knowledge, he said his handicap was +8 IIRC. I think that means that on an average course, he'd typically hit 8 strokes above par.

Trump seemed incredulous of his claim, so I'm guessing that means Trump has a higher handicap?
