A WH official says this AM that Trump still plans to award the Medal of Freedom to 3 golfers today during an 11:30a East Room ceremony.

He'll award the medal to Annika Sorenstam, Gary Player, and Babe Zaharias (posthumously), the official said.

It's not open to the press.

1. People with Twitter accounts need to pressure these golfers to stay home.

6. One is definitely staying in her grave

7. OK, one no-show...

14. Probably Rolling In It

Babe was a pioneer and a feminist. She'd have loathed Twitler.

15. That is true

I assume her family sponsored her. Biden, I am sure, would be more than happy to give it as well. They should have waited.

2. It's not open to the press. Imagine that.

3. It's hard for me to fathom these people being cultists.

4. Only stupid athletes and criminals will have

anything to do with him.

Note: Not all athletes are stupid.

5. They're being used. He's trying to buy some legitimacy.

I think he’ll just sully theirs.

8. Are they even Americans?

The living ones, that is.

9. I'd think the average back woods MAGAt probably doesn't golf a lot

I hope they take note of who trump awards to, not any low level working Joes.

12. PGA is probably 90% MAGA

and that might be low.

Dustin Johnson and his brother/caddie Austin Johnson are huge MAGA guys.

10. More useless and frivolous acts by an immoral despot

While the nations burns from the fires of the pandemic and insurrection he personally stoked, he uses his time giving out meaningless rewards and accolades to golfers... Unreal but believable b.s. by a cretin without a moral compass.

11. Reminds me of Saddam Hussein patting a child on the head.

They like those little "look how benevolent I am" photo ops.

13. So a Swede, an aging country club redneck and a dead person...

The Swede advances American freedom by putting her name on beauty products, at least she is blond and good looking so we know why the creeper in chief sees the wisdom in that.
The redneck advances American freedom by being a tRump suck up.
The dead person advances American freedom by never criticizing tRump.
It all makes perfect sense on what is an important and necessary duty for the tRump to do on the day after his miserable failed insurrection.

16. Sounds like a triple bogey to me

17. All this, just so the orange anus can hang the photos at Doral?

Annika Sorenstam and Gary Player live in Florida, and Babe Zaharias had a large Florida golf footprint.
