"...Tweets accusing Trump of accepting Saudi bribes and not investigating the Saudi link to 9-11..."

Wow. That is rich.

“And now we have to lambast Trump for being in bed with the Saudis? Huh?”

The CEO of LIV Golf is Greg Norman, an Aussie. Also, there will be eight LIV Golf events in the United States in 2023. The host cities include Tucson, Arizona; Orlando, Florida; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Washington, D.C.; Greenbrier, West Virginia; Bedminster, New Jersey; Chicago, Illinois and Miami, Florida.

And they are playing on a couple of Trump properties. Here’s the list of LIV tournaments in the US and around the world:

Feb. 24-26 at El Camaleón Golf Course in Playa del Carmen, Mexico
March 16-19 at The Gallery Golf Club in Marana, Arizona
March 31-April 2 at Orange County National in Winter Garden, Florida
April 20-23 at The Grange Golf Club in Grange, South Australia
April 27-30 at Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore
May 12-14 at Cedar Ridge Country Club in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma
May 26-28 at Trump National Golf Club Washington, D.C. in Potomac Falls, Virginia
June 30-July 2 at Real Club Valderrama in Sotogrande, Cádiz, Spain
July 7-9 at Centurion Golf Club in Hemel Hempstead, England.
Aug. 4-6 at The Old White at The Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia
Aug. 11-13 at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in Bedminster, New Jersey
Sept. 22-24 at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, Illinois
Oct. 20-22 at Trump National Doral in Miami, Florida
Nov. 3-5 at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia

Out of 14 listed events worldwide they are play on Trump property 3 times. (May, August, and October) Doesn’t sound like they are making a political statement. Looks like they like what they have had and want more. Hope the voters follow this thought process in the next election.

Trump, with Saudi help, gave woke PGA a beating. Good for them both. No need to allow 9-11 to spoil this.

IIRC, the PGA cancelled a tournament at a Trump golf course at the last minute, because . . . well, ya know.

President Trump struck back soon thereafter by investing in the LIV.

Payback is indeed a female dog.

Masters champion Jon Rahm bolted for Saudi-funded LIV Golf on Thursday for what’s believed to be more money than the PGA Tour’s entire prize fund, a stunning blow that deepens the divide in golf as the two sides were negotiating a commercial deal.

“Rahm’s addition gives LIV Golf seven of the last 14 winners at the majors.”

Heh, heh.

You do not want to go there—some folks around here might start freaking out and calling you a “conspiracy theorist”.

Ask me how I know....
