About a dozen people protesting the U.S. Women’s Open being played at a course President Donald Trump owns left peacefully Saturday after security officials asked them to leave the front entrance of the LPGA Tour’s Bank of Hope Founders Cup.
Members of the group UltraViolet protested for less than 30 minutes before they were asked to leave the JW Marriott Phoenix Desert Ridge Resort & Spa. A plane flew over the course later with a banner reading “LPGA: TAKE A MULLIGAN. DUMP SEXIST TRUMP.”
The U.S. Golf Association-run U.S. Women’s Open is July 13-16 at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, a few miles from the USGA’s headquarters in Far Hills. …

Is there anything the won’t protest.
They have to show up to draw the Soros check, I guess.
Very disappointing that they left peacefully.
I am hoping that the tide has turned against them.
A couple of F-35's could have had a little fun with that.
This is good, the Left is wearing itself in the ground.
The Democrat Thug Party.
“about” 12 people protested? Couldn’t the reporter count?
Who knows what those reporters are on.
My Tea Party group in Los Angeles has held numerous rallies and protests in groups of 20 - 25 people during Baraque's reign ... AP never covered those... 😕
I happen to casually know the guy who runs the LPGA, though I haven’t seen him in a couple years.
Not a Trump guy ha-ha. However the reason seemed more personal as there was some kind of twitter war. He certainly didn’t strike me as Joe-Liberal I think their beef was over business.
Well, you know, AP’s priorities . . . anything but the news.
Shouldn’t that headline read Anti-Trump protesters?
“TRUMP” protestors? They might be Anti-Trump protestors. They might be communist protestors. They might be slimy democrat protestors. BUT, the one thing they are NOT, is Trump protestors.
I hate AP.
These POS scumbags are going to do this kind of stuff non-stop for a long time to come. They really are scum. So many important needs in the world and this is how they spend their time and resources.
I live a few miles away from Trump National in New Jersey. I’m trying to figure out how anyone could have protested outside the gate there. It’s on a rural road surrounded by large estates with houses set back far from the road, and they can’t possibly have more than a dozen people out there without blocking the road.
Ultra Morons calling Trump a sexist while an LPGA event is at his course. Women making lots of money. Real brain power going on there. /s
The LPGA has terrible TV ratings—and just missed a great opportunity here.
Next time they can try this:
Hold the protestors—one in each cage—open at the top—about two hundred yards out at the driving range.
If a lady golfer hits a protestor with a golf shot on the range (behind the designated line, of course) she gets a thousand dollar bonus—ten thousand dollars for a head shot.
Put a betting line on each player and protestor in Vegas—and LPGA is good to go!
;-)
The irony: Trump has been supportive of women’s golf, even though the LPGA has been taken over by Asians who cream North American and European golfers week after week.
