Biden trolls Trump over golf ‘championship’ trophies: ‘Quite the accomplishment’

President

Joe
Biden
trolled

Donald
Trump
late
Sunday
after
his

Republican
challenger
bragged
about
winning
not
one
but
two “club
championship”
trophies
at
his
own
Florida

golf
club.

“Congratulations,
Donald.
Quite
the
accomplishment,”
Biden
tweeted.

The
sharp
jab
at
the
golf-obsessed
former

president
quickly
went
viral
after
it
was
posted
on
Biden’s
personal
X
account.
By
Monday
morning,
it
had
garnered
more
than
13
million
views
and
counting.

The
Democrat’s
social
media
team
has
been
quick
this
election
cycle
to
zing
Trump
as
they
prepare
for
a
rematch
of
the
2020
election.

Other
social
media
users
already
roasted
Trump
for
his
boast
on
Truth
Social,
which
said, “It
is
my
great
honor
to
be
at
Trump
International
Golf
Club
in
West
Palm
Beach
tonight,
AWARDS
NIGHT,
to
receive
THE
CLUB
CHAMPIONSHIP
TROPHY
&
THE
SENIOR
CLUB
CHAMPIONSHIP
TROPHY.”

“I
WON
BOTH!,”
wrote
Trump.

“A
large
and
golfing
talented
membership,
a
GREAT
and
difficult
course,
made
the
play
very
exciting.
The
qualifying
and
match
play
was
amazing,”
he
wrote.

Tim
O’Brien,
a
senior
executive
at
Bloomberg
Opinion,
replied
to
Biden’s
clap-back,
writing, “He’s
too
nice
to
note
that
Trump
is
a
notorious
cheater
at
golf.”

Others
on
X
referenced
sports
writer
Rick
Reilly’s
2019
book “Commander
in
Cheat:
How
Golf
Explains
Trump.”

One
user
tweeted
Sunday
a
video
of
Reilly
in
an
interview
recounting
how
Trump “tried
to
cheat”
the
legendary
golfer
Tiger
Woods.

“Tiger
freaking
Woods,”
said
Reilly.

He
described
how
Trump “chokes
one,”
sending
his
ball
into
the
water
with
a
swing,
and
then “says
to
his
partner,
throw
me
another
one,
they
didn’t
see,”
Reilly
recalled.

The
writer
also
recounted
how
Trump
would
be “telling
people
that
he
won
club
championships
that
he
didn’t
even
play
in.
And
then
he
won
at
least
six
or
seven
times
tournaments
where
he
was
the
only
guy
playing
in
the
tournament.”

Trump’s
alleged
golfing
victories
over
the
weekend
may
have
served
as
a
high
note
for
the
former
president
in
an
otherwise
stressful
period.

Trump
has
until
Monday
to
post
an
appeal
bond
to
secure
a
civil
business
fraud
judgment
against
him
of
more
than
$450
million.
If
he
cannot
post
the
bond,
Trump
faces
the
prospect
of
New
York
Attorney
General
Letitia
James
potentially
moving
to
seize
his
real
estate
and
other
assets
to
satisfy
the
damage
award.

Shortly
after
midnight
Sunday
night,
Trump
wrote
a
Truth
Social
post
asking
why
the
judge
in
his
case
should “be
allowed
to
take
away,
and
sell
off,
very
successful
properties
and
assets
that
took
me
years
to
zone,
build
and
nurture
into
some
of
the
best
of
their
kind
anywhere
in
the
World
–
WHEN
I
HAVE
DONE
NOTHING
WRONG!”
