The Left has collectively lost their minds. Trump broke all of them.

All of them are special Snowflakes, as we see here daily.

    1) The PGA should be moved if for no other reason than Trump’s name/presence will take the oxygen and focus from the event

    2) It’s bad business for golf to retain the close ties to Trump particularly given that the sport is already viewed as highly elitist

    3) It’s impossible to be affiliated with Trump after the actions of this week ... the fireworks are coming after he leaves office

    Pissing off millions of golfers is a good business strategy.

    My grandad told me that if you have to wear a glove while golfing, you are holding the club too tight.

    This. No matter where you fall politically, there is no point to upset a good portion of your fan base, when there are tons of other golf courses to play the same game on.

    Maybe Trump can have a Parler convention at his golf course... with white hoods and burning crosses.

    That was Biden at Robert KKK Byrd's funeral

    Trump is a gigantic sack of shit. Why would anyone want to be associated with his fat ass?

    It’s way beyond just pissing off golfers. Combined with Justin Thomas over the weekend, it just needs to stay off the woke radar. Local Government could really screw golf over with new property tax rules and environmental regulations.

    The Trump brand has become toxic for business. I'm surprised you're surprised.

    Trump is just toxic at this point and the sooner he’s not on the radar for the masses the better ... don’t feel like going into huge detail on that

    JT is an idiot ... so I think he meant anything malicious? Of course not. Do I think we would be well served to be reminded of a “sticks and stones ... but words will never hurt me” mindset? Yep. But everybody should be well aware of the environment you live in and this isn’t JT’s 1st dumbass comment. Comes with the territory.

    Local government screwing over golf courses? Perhaps but I think it’s going to be much more localized and nuanced. Seattle for instance is going to go out of their way to shit on golf so that they can repurpose the land. Tacoma ain’t going to fuck with Chambers because that place prints money for them. Places like Bend aren’t going to shit on the tourist economy that props up the region.

    I guess intuitively it could be fun to see the government get really nuanced in picking winners and losers in terms of taxes.

    1) You honestly think a year from now his name really is going to matter?

    2) Viewed as elitist? Have you looked at the cost of a decent set of irons? The price of green fees for a decent 18 hole course? (I know I sound poor) Golf is as elitist as it gets. Been that way for over 100 years. That perception will never change.

    3) People that watch and play golf won't change their opinion regardless.

    I’m was agreeing with you... There is no upside into fighting this battle, whether it’s just or not. By fighting, you are making golf itself a target for who knows what. I’m describing how golf could actually get cancelled if the mob wanted to do so.

    There’s push in Seattle to turn the city owned public ones into drug shooting zones, but there have also been pushes in Seattle and LA at least to start assessing the private course property values differently. That’s how you would kill them.

    This is Trump's brand now. Cop-killing mobs. It's going to resonate for a long time. His popularity rating is at 33%, George W. Bush territory.

    Rather cuts agains the country club image, doesn't it?

    Dying from a medical event at the police station is hardly being murdered by a mob.
