Trump Was Behind The Saudi LIV Golf League

I hate being right so often. Trump was stiffed by the PGA which pulled a major tournament from his golf course. The British also banned tournaments from Trump golf courses.

Trump, we know, holds grudges. I can't prove this but Trump gave the Saudis classified information and in return the Saudis attempted to bring down the PGA with its new league.

I fucking knew it, you have to think like Trump, like a deranged person.

This Trump is pure fucking evil.

Go back in the archives, I called this and what is scary, we don't know what we don't know what other evil deeds Trump did.

It is way past time to indict the MF.

also held tournaments at Trump courses. The Saudis are spending a boat load of money trying to bring down the PGA, Trump must have given them some good classified shit.

I wonder what he gave Putin or Kim?

Trump is a traitor, and soon I can call him a rapist.

I don't need a jury to verify it. He is many terrible things and no jury or court needs to prove that. Whip out a thesaurus and every word that is negative is another adjective for the fucking moron.

5. Justice Dept. Probing Links Between Trump and Saudi-Backed LIV Golf: NYT

https://www.thedailybeast.com/justice-department-probing-links-between-donald-trump-and-saudi-backed-liv-golf-report-says

The Department of Justice has issued a new round of subpoenas as federal prosecutors probe deeper into Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents at his Florida estate, including one seeking records related to the former president’s ties to LIV Golf, according to The New York Times. Trump has acted as something of a standard-bearer for the fledgling, Saudi-backed breakaway tour, which plans to hold several tournaments at golf clubs owned by his family business this year.

What federal prosecutors are seeking to learn about Trump and LIV Golf is unclear, but the subpoena alone suggests they are circling the Trump Organization. The Times also reported that investigators had obtained the confidential cooperation of a former Mar-a-Lago employee, who is said to have provided them with a picture of the storage room where the classified records were held. A Trump spokesperson told the newspaper that the government’s case was “a targeted, politically motivated witch hunt.”

that if the entirety of everything that took place from 2015 until today, was disclosed, it would be a set of books that would look like the old fashioned Encyclopedia Britanica or World Book Encyclopedia........and those would just be the highlights......LOL

Brexit went Leave (I am a US, UK, and Swedish citizen) on the vote almost exactly 4 months before I turned 20, and around 2 weeks after I did turn 20, Trump was elected, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Plus Covid and all that. It also would have been nice to have had 2 teenage years before 9/11 too, and basically all of them (plus up until around I was 26, 27 or so) before social media went all supernova pear shaped, which started to happen around 2012/13.

Finally, it would have been nice, as a mixed-raced black person, to be able to cast 2 votes for Obama (although my first POTUS vote, 2 weeks after I turned 18 (if it was 10 years earlier to the exact day that I was born in 1986 v 1996) would have been 2004, when Bush squeaked out the win over Kerry due to Ohio).

Oh well, at least it was not the other way (and I was born 10 years LATER, in 2006). Anyone born late 2009 and after will not even have had any of their teenage years without AI truly starting to fuck things up as well.

In 2008 Trump said that if he were president, he could bring the price of oil down to $30 just by making a super tough phone call to Saudi Arabia.

$30 in 2008 would be $34.15 in 2017.

I am speculating that Ivana Trump was pushed down her stairs because, among other things, her death got Shitler and spawn out of a deposition. Ivana's body was immediately cremated, and her remains were put into a coffin. At her funeral, TEN men struggled to lift the coffin supposedly containing the cremated remains of an old woman. The coffin is then buried in a very temporary looking grave and voila! one week later the Saudis have their fake golf tournament at same place where the coffin is buried. And then, Jerod gets $2B+ from the Saudis.

I'm suggesting that the coffin contained stolen classified documents which was then dug up again so the Saudis could take them with them back to SA. https://politizoom.com/what-the-hell-is-in-ivanas-casket/

Whatever is the worst thing that you can imagine the Trump Crime Family doing, multiply it by 1000 and you'll be getting closer to the truth.
