United States President, Donald Trump spent his Saturday golfing with the President of Finland Alexander Stubb and some celebrities. Trump, in a post on
I just played a round of Golf with Alexander Stubb, President of Finland. He is a very good player, and we won the Men’s Member-Guest Golf Tournament at Trump International Golf Club in Palm Beach County, with the Legendary Gary Player, Senator Lindsey Graham, and former Congressman and highly successful Television Host, Trey Gowdy.
“President Stubb and I look forward to strengthening the partnership between the United States and Finland, and that includes the purchase and development of a large number of badly needed Icebreakers for the U.S., delivering Peace and International Security for our Countries, and the World.
“President Stubb told me, in the most powerful of words, that the United States is STRONG, and BACK, AGAIN. I AGREE!” Trump wrote.
If you watch any interviews with Stubb, where he is asked about Trump, he gives answers that would please Trump.
But if you watch him talk about anything else, you can tell Stubb is way too smart to consider Trump anything other than a bumbling fool. It's incredible that he's able to clue people in, while even in person the idiot himself doesn't realize.
He's trying to walk the line of pleasing Trumps ego, while getting real work done.
He's literally just been saying stuff along the line "here's what president Trump needs to do (insert sane policy), but he's so smart he doesn't need me telling him that".
I hate the fact that you have butter yourself all up and rub yourself against Trump and proclaim that he is the greatest thing that ever happened to you in order to get him to not destroy everything for himself and others.
I love the fact that there are other people out there who are capable of doing that and don't feel shame or discomfort while doing it. People like president Stubb, Nato secretary Rutte and others might just keep things from really turning bad. They are really good at pandering to Trump's ego. I just hope they don't end up completely selling themselves out, but I have confidence in that they know the limit.
I'm not a fan of Stubb, but so far he seems to be navigating the ROUGH political waters well enough. While I did not vote for him, I'm mostly pleasantly surprised by how he's doing as a president and I trust he knows what he's doing. I just hope I don't have to be unpleasantly surprised later.
I don’t know anything about the tournament but I saw a photo of all 4 people in his group holding the same sized trophy and at least one was a former PGA player. I would bet they played best ball and just took the pro’s shot every time. Maybe one of the other three got lucky and hit a putt or a par 3 green or something while every other “best ball” was the professional golfer’s shot.
I’m ok if this is the only type of news we get from this administration from here on out. Let my taxes pay for golf so long as these people are not doing anything else.
More like knows how to protect his own investments at the cost of the nation he supposedly leads. His party works with the Finnish far-right, it's no surprise he'd go across the ocean to suck one more fascist dick
