Seriously. You understand Bill Clinton belongs to Trump's golf course, in fact they share a small locker room only for famous people? BigDawg did not quit, even after Trump called him a rapist.

When Donald Trump bought the famous Turnberry golf club in Ayrshire last year, he believed his name would soon be cemented alongside the legends of the game.
But his dream of handing over the trophy at The Open is in tatters, The Independent on Sunday can reveal, after golfs governing body, headquartered in Scotland, privately decided that his reputation is now so toxic that the newly renamed Trump Turnberry can no longer host the games most prestigious tournament.
... while he may dream of handing over the Claret Jug having jetted into Scotland from the White House, the R&A doesnt see it that way. Middle East sovereign wealth is a key element of European Tour golf sponsorship. Leading sponsors include DP World, the Dubai-based marine terminal company chaired by Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
Jumeirah Golf Estates and the Emirates airline are also leading sponsors of the big-money finale to the European tour. The Damac real estate company in Dubai, currently building a multi-million-dollar golf complex marketed with the Trump signature, this week stripped his name from the project.
Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal called Mr Trump a disgrace to all America, saying he should withdraw from the US presidential race.
