Video: Donald Trump talks Tiger Woods scandal: 'Tiger is going to be hotter than ever before'
examiner.com ^ | 12-9-09 | Katrina-Kasey Wheeler

Tiger Woods has been making headlines for the past several days, not for his golf prowess, but for his alleged affairs. Donald Trump has a lot to say in regard to the scandal, but ultimately doesn't think any real backlash will occur.

Trump told Extra: “Tiger’s a great athlete… one of the greatest athletes in the world. He’s had a very interesting and traumatic couple of weeks [but] he’s a wonderful guy.” He adds: "Tiger is going to be hotter than ever before — mark my words. He is a really talented person, and a really good person.”

When asked if he believed the scandal may affect his endorsements, Trump says: "It may affect his endorsements a little bit, but it is a little like Kobe. Nobody remembers the Kobe incident anymore. I think what is important for Tiger, is to get back on the course and start winning tournaments - and he'll do that. He is just the best golfer."

Good points Donald......and for all the Woods haters who are so concerned about "the children", 6 months from now ask any kid what they know about Tiger Woods and they will say he's the best golfer in the world..........

Kids have no concept about infidelity nor do they really care if explained to them........kids see what they want to see and as long as Woods is the best golfer, then they in turn want to be just like him based on his golfing prowess........and nothing more. LOL!

Thats just the way it is.......

It’s all so crazy. This thing is out of control. Nothing has been proven, and yet sponsors are pulling his ads and now he will not receive a planned Congressional medal: all because of a car crash and bad publicity. Tiger and no one in his camp seems to know how to stop this thing.

There have been cover-ups from Day One. How could a person be released to home from INTENSIVE CARE? What were his injuries? We do not know, as he has not been seen publicly for over 2 weeks.

Who broke the story of his so-called mistresses? There is much money to be made out of this by many as Tiger gets taken to the cleaners.

CHA-CHING!!!

Oh yeah. Trump cheating on his wife with that bimbo who then cheated on him.

One thing Trump knows is cheating hearts.

Kobe was found to be not guilty in a court of law, I think.

Why are all the CHEATERS saying that Tiger will be bigger than ever!! It's like saying OJ was bigger than ever!

If Tiger doesn’t struggle mightily in his return to play, then he’s a sociopath. No one who isn’t psychologically disturbed can cause that much pain and public embarrassment to the mother of their children, and not be adversely affected by it.

My take also.

Hey Hot, I notice you are a huge Tiger fan...personally I think the guys a mental midget right now (as a human-not a golfer) and it’s going to take a lot out of his game if or when he comes back. I sincerely doubt he will have the same edge previous to this debacle.

I replied to you on another thread that he’s a stupid bonehead which he is....I don’t care what happens to him and if he gets his wife back and he’s a good dad all the power to him.

My son is 15 and plays golf on his high school team. He’s very impressionable....smart too....he knows exactly what Tiger lost because of his indiscretions and I was happy that the first thing my son said to me was geez he’s got a couple kids...that totally stinks. Not geez what’s this going to do to his career and his endorsements.
Oh well....just my 2 cents. Hit em straight!

What, does he think OJ’s really not that bad,

How do you logically equate a murderer to a man who cheats on his wife?

That's a real stretch of the imagination dude no matter how much you hate Tiger Woods..........

They probably said something similar about Babe Ruth, only it wasn’t the drugs, but the hot dogs that nearly killed him.

that is why Tiger is rumored to be talking about moving out of country

Whoo boy, here's another hot rumor!!!!LOL

Tell you what dude, if Tiger does choose to move out of the country it won't be for the reasons you are attempting to sell, it will be to provide tax shelters...........You should be in favor of that shouldn't you? You are an anti-tax conservative right?

Wasn’t Tiger born in Kenya, anyway, or am I thinking of someone else?

Yeah they said the Babe was finished but then contrary to common lore after that season he did extensive training prior to baseball season and his 2nd wife calmed him down a lot

It was probably the cigars and booze tough that lead to the eventual throat cancer

Golf is as much a head game as it is physical. I think that it will be some time before Tiger is back on his game. He has always had a bit of a temper. (throwing clubs)

Something tells me Trump may be right about this. Once Tiger gets his personal life under control, he may start winning again. If Tiger moves to Europe and wins a few tournaments there... he’ll probably be ok with that.
