I figured someone would get mad that I posted the score before they watched the video, hence the SPOILER ALERT.
Trump’s golf swing is definitely not classic, but he repeats it over and over so he can play really well for his age.
Jim Furyk was the same way; he had the big loop in his swing, but it was the same each and every time and he had a really good PGA career.
The best description of Furyk’s swing that I heard was “an octopus falling out of a tree.”

For his age???
He’s pretty good for any age. I wouldn’t say he was a scratch golfer, but he’s darn close to it. Consistent 250-280 yd drives down the middle, a rather decent short game, and top quality putting really impressed me. His questions to Bryson showed he was still interested in improving. He presented himself as the type of golfer I would love to share a round with.
If nothing else, he lived up to his braggadocio about his golf game. It would have been a hoot to watch a Trump/Biden match. Joe would have quit after the first tee.

As in many shooting disciplines, consistency can be more important than "correct" technique.
