The Saudis are now telling us to fuck off

24. Probably no relationship but . . .

Does the name “ LIV” mean anything to anyone? LIV was the pro golf association established by Trump and the Saudis — using, of course, Saudi money at Trump golf courses. The idea was that LIV would draw all the big name golfers from the US PGA into LIV thereby ensuring all pro golf would bow to Trump.

Recently a few things that I know of have happened to lead to the end of this Trump pipe dream.

1. The Saudis pulled their money out of LIV.
2. The LIV tourney at Trump’s Doral FL course was a BUST — galleries were non-existent - 100 people in the gallery on the 18th hole.
3. This weekend will see an LIV tourney at Trump’s golf course in Sterling VA. Local sporting goods stores are selling a pair of tickets TO ALL FOUR DAYS for $25.00 . . . and no one is buying. ( I live in Northern VA. Today, just to be an asshole, I went to a local sporting goods store, asked about tickets, to which the guy behind the counter replied “Are you shitting me? We cannot give the fucking things away!”)
4. LIV announced that it was shutting down by the end of the year.

So now another Trump failure to add to Trump Steaks, Trump Home, Trump Water, Trump Shuttle (airline), Trump The Game, Trump University, Trump Vodka and now Trump The Iran War.
