[USA TODAY] Tiger Woods on President Trump: 'You have to respect the office'

Tiger did not make the cut?

Or a black man exercises his constitutional right of free speech and forgets his place in a white man's society?

Os Trigonum, why you mad?

 

"You have to respect the office". Too bad his golfing buddy, tweet by tweet, undermines that message.

I really don't care if some apolitical, super-rich athlete wants to remain chummy with Trump. Why should this matter to anyone?

 

Probably share marital fidelity tips...

 

Rich people are less likely to criticize the guy handing them tax cuts? Shocking!

Frankly what's more amazing is that this is not more prevalent given people like this are getting essentially a 10% bonus on what they were expecting to rake in.

It's no different than Hugo Chavez paying people off in cash to vote for him. It's just that Trump understands how to invest his bribe money better. Instead of the headache of organizing a cut to the poorest 51%, he can give a cut to the richest ~1% and move on to his other business. That ~1% will influence enough people to make it worthwhile in any status-worshipping society - not to mention the brilliance of the kick back automatically boosting their status and incentivizing them to get on TV and say "SEE YOU SHOULD BE LIKE ME!".

 

He can respect the office but I bet he wasn't respecting that Perkin's poontang.

I bet he likes Trump. Probably begging him to deport Elin so he can get his house back lol.

 

In order to get my respect, you must do far more than just convince some strangers you are the right person for a job.

 

Tiger Woods giving a middle of the road political response trying not to offend anyone? I love Tiger Woods because of what he has done for Golf, and it is great to have him back, but Tiger is a very fake person, as we learned following that fateful Thanksgiving crash.

 

LOL at everyone attacking, judging, etc.., Tiger Woods on a question he should have never been asked to begin with. Need I remind all of you that article was in USA Today Sports Golf section. What a joke of a reporter. However the reaction is exactly why sports journalists/reporters keep diving into politics. You all are part of the problem, I hope you all are proud of yourselves.

 

I am guessing your only goal in life to stir **** up in the D&D. Congratulations on fulfilling your life's mission.

The article you posted was pointless. You lead-in comment is even more pointless. Congrats, you are doing a bang up job of wasting people's time.

 

I wish Trump respected the office. Sadly he does not.

 

Thankfully you do not have to respect the golfer.

 

Exactly.

In late 1989 or so I was watching CNN at a hotel in Greece and Mel Gibson was being interviewed; he was asked if he thought there would be a war in Iraq (which had taken over Kuwait at the time, and there was the subsequent U.S. military buildup). "No, there won't be a war blah blah."

It isn't so much that he was wrong, just: Does it matter what he thinks? And why do I remember this?

Let's get Chachi and Antonio Sabato Junior's opinions on Trump, too.

 

Your pointlessness continues.

And thanks for projecting your mad-ness with Tiger on me.

 

I neither mad nor offended.

I changed my mind. I am mad and offended until you explain in detail wtf you meant by this. I awaited patiently and madly for you to enlighten me on your world view.

 

Your pointlessness is thus confirmed.

I am mad and offended no more.
