"In the debate Sleepy Joe also declared that he wanted to test his skills and stamina against mine on the golf course. Can you believe this? Did you ever see him swing? He's like this. (gestures awkwardly) That's why this evening I'm also -- and this is in honor of you and everyone, 45 thousand people, that's a lot of people -- I'm also officially challenging Crooked Joe to an 18 hole golf match right here on Doral’s Blue Monster, considered one of the greatest tournament golf courses anywhere in the world, one of the great courses of the world. It will be among the most watched sporting events in history, maybe bigger than the Ryder Cup or even the Masters. I will even give Joe Biden 10 strokes aside -- 10 strokes, that's a lot. That means 20 strokes in case you don't play golf. I will give him 10 strokes aside and if he wins I will give the charity of his choice -- ANY CHARITY that he wants -- 1 million dollars."

The only golf match I would ever watch. The golf wouldn't be any more interesting, but the potential for Joe wandering off into the woods, Trump heckling him until they have a pathetic old man fight on the green, or either of them croaking on camera mid-swing would be too high not to tune in.

a pathetic old man fight on the green

Oh, please god make that a reality. If it happened - I'd always remember it. If I ever fell into hard times - I'd remember it. If I had insomnia yet again - I'd remember it. In my darkest, unhappiest hours I'd remember that and at least smile if not laugh.

I hate everything about this dumbfuck election, it's just the same rehashed dumb shit from four years ago. Fuck me I hate this fucking country so goddamn much

It's not the same as it was 4 years ago, now biden's dementia is inescapably obvious

is comedy gold like this worth the life of me and my comrades? no. but it’s nice to be able to laugh at the empire’s descent into full fascism instead of just despairing all the time

we have two hitlers, and the one who remembers where he is challenges the one with dementia to the fakest, lamest sport

At this point, might as well decide the election with a golf match.

[–] CarbonConscious@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Tbh Biden probably has a better chance that way (still low but better than more debates and a general).

This would be infinitely funnier than Happy Gilmore

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

They should absolutely do a golf match. 18 holes in Florida, no carts allowed. inshallah-script they both collapse with exploded hearts from an afternoon's walk in the sun.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Biden wouldn't make it out alive even with carts lmao
