In another clip posted by the Telegram , Trump very clearly moves his ball into a better spot on the fairway to hit his next shot. 'I can't believe we've just watched the man cheating at f---ing golf' See the two clips that cast doubt over Donald Trump's golfing prowess Watch here ⬇️ In a third video, Trump is at it again. This time, on a different hole, he appears to drag the ball away from the face of a bunker to make an easier shot onto the green. Notice at 00:36 how he drags the ball away from the face of the bunker so he can get it out. That's wildly illegal. Then he gives himself an 8-foot putt. Trump cheats at golf like a 4-year-old cheats at solitaire. #CommanderInCheat Users on social media site X, quickly took aim at Trump as the phrase 'commander in cheat' began trending. 'For the morons that think Trump doesn't cheat at golf and wins all those club championships fair and square….watch his caddie here,' one user wrote. 'It's hilarious that people are shocked to see that trump cheats at golf, when folks were telling us long before he was elected,' another user wrote. 'Wait until you find out he cheated on ALL 3 of his wives, or how he buried one on his golf course and forgot about her.' Another user compared Trump's athletic antics to those of North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, who once claimed to have shot 11 holes-in-one during the first round of golf in his life at the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang. 'The video of Trump's caddy doing an Oddjob Slazenger drop isn't a big deal; cheating at golf isn't nearly the worst thing about Trump,' The Atlantic 's Tom Nichols wrote. 'But watching the cult of personality try to explain it away is really some creepy North Korean level stuff.' Trump's alleged cheating — which has always been denied – was the subject of Rick Reilly's 2019 book, Commander in Cheat . 'At Winged Foot, where Trump is a member, the caddies got so used to seeing him kick his ball back onto the fairway they came up with a nickname for him: Pele,' Reilly wrote in the book. The U.S. president also has faced a long list of cheating accusations from previous playing partners, ranging from actor Samuel L. Jackson to LPGA player Suzann Pettersen. He has also been criticized for the amount of time that he has spent on various golf courses during his second term in office. According to reports, Trump has golfed at least 45 days out of his 189 days in office this year — roughly 24%.
