President Joe Biden took a dig at Donald Trump on social media after the former president boasted about winning two “club championship” trophies at his Florida golf club. Biden’s tweet congratulating Trump on his accomplishment quickly went viral, garnering over 13 million views. This is just one example of the Democrat’s social media team mocking Trump as they gear up for a potential rematch in the 2020 election.

Trump’s post on Truth Social about winning the trophies at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach was met with ridicule from other social media users. Some pointed out that Trump is known for cheating at golf, referencing sports writer Rick Reilly’s book “Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump.” The book details instances where Trump allegedly cheated at golf, including tournaments he didn’t even play in and exaggerated club championships.

The timing of Trump’s golfing victories coincided with a stressful period for the former president, who has until Monday to post an appeal bond to secure a civil business fraud judgment against him of over $450 million. If Trump fails to post the bond, New York Attorney General Letitia James could move to seize his real estate and other assets to satisfy the damage award. Trump took to Truth Social to protest against this potential action, claiming he has done nothing wrong and questioning why his properties should be taken away.

Despite Trump’s legal troubles, he seemed to find solace in his golfing accomplishments over the weekend. The post about his victories at his Florida club was met with both praise and criticism on social media. Trump’s love for golf and tendency to exaggerate his accomplishments on the course have been well-documented, with critics pointing out instances of cheating and dishonesty in his golfing history.

As Biden and Trump continue to spar on social media, their rivalry appears far from over. Trump’s post about winning club championships may have been a fleeting moment of triumph for him, but it was quickly overshadowed by backlash and reminders of his questionable golfing practices. The former president’s legal battles also loom large, adding to the drama surrounding his golfing achievements in the eyes of the public.
