Key Takeaways:
- Donald Trump has hit the golf course 70 times this year, but this time he’s calling it a “campaign rally.”
- Supporters gathered at the club to witness what they were told would be a political event, only to watch Trump drive golf balls instead of delivering a speech.
- Trump insists he’s “doing more for America on the golf course” than other candidates are doing on the campaign trail.
Donald Trump may be known for holding massive rallies, but his latest event took a more relaxing turn. For the 70th time this year, Trump was spotted on the golf course, but this time he’s calling it a “campaign rally.” In what can only be described as the most leisurely political event of the season, Trump swung his clubs and declared, “This is where the real work gets done.”
A Rally Like No Other
Instead of the usual arena packed with supporters waving MAGA signs, Trump’s 70th “campaign rally” took place at a pristine golf course, complete with caddies, golf carts, and pristine greens. Supporters who expected a fiery speech were instead treated to the sight of Trump driving balls down the fairway, occasionally pausing to comment on how much “winning” he was doing—on and off the course.
“I’ve done more for this country on this golf course than Joe Biden has done in the White House,” Trump boasted, holding his driver aloft. “And frankly, I think this counts as a rally. I’ve got the people here, the enthusiasm is off the charts, and I’m getting exercise. It’s a win-win.”
Supporters? Confused but Loyal
The event drew a crowd of curious supporters, some of whom were expecting a traditional rally with speeches, flags, and chants. Instead, they found themselves watching Trump play through 18 holes, occasionally offering quips about the state of the nation.
“I thought there would be a speech or something,” said one supporter, who came with a “Trump 2024” flag. “But, you know what? If this is what he calls a rally, I’m fine with it. He deserves to relax a little after all he’s done.”
Others seemed equally entertained, if slightly confused. “I’ve been to a lot of Trump rallies, but this is definitely the most… quiet,” another attendee admitted. “But hey, if he says he’s working, I believe him.”
Trump’s Golf Diplomacy: “The Course is Where Deals Are Made”
Throughout the rally, Trump insisted that the golf course is the perfect venue for conducting campaign business. “This is where the real deals are made,” he said. “You think deals get done in stuffy offices? No, they get done on the golf course.”
Trump also hinted at some “big campaign ideas” that he claimed to have developed between swings. “When you’re out here, breathing the fresh air, hitting a few birdies, that’s when the best ideas come to you. Trust me, we’ve got some huge announcements coming up.”
Critics React: “More Golf than Campaigning”
Of course, Trump’s opponents were quick to criticize his 70th golf outing disguised as a campaign event. “This is not campaigning; this is just another round of golf,” said one critic. “How does hitting a golf ball help him connect with voters?”
But Trump’s supporters see things differently. For them, every appearance Trump makes is a rally, even if it involves more golf balls than political speeches. “We’re happy to see him doing what he loves,” said one attendee. “He’s a winner on the course and in politics.”
Social Media Reactions: “Is Golfing the New Campaigning?”
As with all things Trump, social media was quick to react. “Did Trump just hold a rally on a golf course and call it work? That’s peak 2024,” one user tweeted. Another joked, “Trump’s strategy for 2024: less talking, more golfing.”
Memes began flooding the internet, featuring Trump swinging his club with captions like “Make Golf Great Again” and “Fore More Years.”
The 2024 Campaign: Golf and Greatness?
While Trump’s 70th trip to the golf course might not have resembled a traditional campaign rally, it’s clear that he’s still got his loyal supporters behind him. Whether or not the strategy of holding “rallies” on the green pays off in the long run remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure—Trump’s campaign trail is unlike any other.
Key Takeaways:
- Trump marked his 70th golf outing this year, calling it a “campaign rally” to the surprise of his supporters.
- Despite no speech or traditional rally setup, Trump insisted he was working hard for America on the course.
- Social media erupted with jokes and memes, with many questioning if golf has become the new form of campaigning for Trump.
