so you want me to go read each tweet, something you haven’t done and you want me to research each one? What’s involved? The kind of day he was having? Did he have a a fight with his girl before? The weather conditions? Maybe he had too many pain meds after his season ending injury? LOL. The guy likes and shares racist views of other known racists. If someone calls a homosexual the 3 letter f word, what would you think of people that share it and make it reach a bigger audience? Who cares about any other stuff he said, they aren’t harming anyone. These negative tweets can be hurtful and can enable others to violence. True although I'd say it may encourage, not enable. Enabling violence gives the perpetrators a free pass on their behavior which is ludicrous. And while that is a concern, hopefully folks will remember the principles upon which the country was founded and are smart enough, mature enough and reasonable enough to not resort to that kind of foolishness. thanks you’re right I should have used encourage instead of enable. |

So based on on the tweets he like or shared, what specifically was racist? Have you researched all of his tweets to see what positive or encouraging ones he may have liked or shared, or are we just focusing on these few and deeming him racist? I’m not denying he could be racist, I’m just saying that’s an awful big label to be throwing around so loosely towards a young kid with no concrete evidence so you want me to go read each tweet, something you haven’t done and you want me to research each one? What’s involved? The kind of day he was having? Did he have a a fight with his girl before? The weather conditions? Maybe he had too many pain meds after his season ending injury? LOL.

Who cares about any other stuff he said, they aren’t harming anyone. These negative tweets can be hurtful and can enable others to violence. This post is so ridiculous...and on so many levels it's almost impossible to respond to.
You have no idea what he thinks about anything. You have no idea what his intent was about anything. Your conclusions are ridiculous.

many Republicans I know are not Trumpers Including Good Ol' Morehead. Yea why do people assume if you are a conservative or that if you agree with Trump on a particular policy that you are a Trump supporter? Jmike dislikes him on a lot of levels but because she defended a few things he has said she a right wing psychopath? It’s ridiculous lol. |

stop playing games because you didn’t even read my post. When you accuse someone of being a racist then you better damned well read every tweet. You better know what kind of day he was having. You better know if he had a fight with his girlfriend....and you better know a hell of a lot more than that as well.
Because "reading between the lines" is a waste of time. You have no idea who he is based on his social media activity. You are just desperately looking for a reason to see the worst....and I promise you that's a fools errand.

Trump is not conservative. He believes in big government. More importantly have you golfed lately ? I've played three round in the last two weekends. I got in on Saturday night from Bozeman at 1 AM and then had an 8:20 tee time Sunday morning. I hit the ball fine but I could not get the ball in the hole. I went 40-40. The Sunday before I hit it much worse and shot 76. It's a crazy game but I'm very happy with my ball striking. I'm just not practicing my short game and it shows. Plus the greens aren't rolling like they should obviously. They were covered with ice just two or three weeks ago. Our course is actually in great shape considering that.

yes let’s cut the guy some slack. He was probably nursing some injury and we should know that athletes are just itching to like some racist and homophobic comments. |

You two need your own page so you can just agree with each other all day. That way you never have to deal with anyone different than you. |

You most likely don’t recall but I took a point you made about not being afraid to slice it or hit fades off the Tee and it honestly had changed my game. One of the things I’ve akways been good at is scramblling and that’s our if necessity of course but I’ve been killing it with my drives. I’ve been able to turn some given bogeys into pars. Still need work on the short game. At a 13 handicap right now. so thank you. How are the courses out in the Midwest ? |

I've only driven through there over the last 40 years.
One thing my dead guru told me. And this guy was the best instructor I ever had. He taught on the senior tour and the European tour. "If you are an 18 handicap or better.....you're a good golfer."
And BTW...did you notice all those fades Tiger was hitting on the back nine on Sunday? He drew it on 13 but faded the ball everywhere else.

Secondly our house is being built in Bozeman as we speak and we'll be moving there in late June.

I considered anything between California and Illinois the Midwest. You’re probably right though |

Have you researched all of his tweets to see what positive or encouraging ones he may have liked or shared, or are we just focusing on these few and deeming him racist? I’m not denying he could be racist, I’m just saying that’s an awful big label to be throwing around so loosely towards a young kid with no concrete evidence so you want me to go read each tweet, something you haven’t done and you want me to research each one? What’s involved? The kind of day he was having? Did he have a a fight with his girl before? The weather conditions? Maybe he had too many pain meds after his season ending injury? LOL.

Who cares about any other stuff he said, they aren’t harming anyone. These negative tweets can be hurtful and can enable others to violence. Well, if you are going to accuse somebody of something such as this; yes, I think providing specific evidence and the context surrounding it would be expected. We are not making this claim, others are and it is their responsibility to prove that it is a just accusation. What the people who are accusing him have provided as evidence is laughable. Problem is the media is very lazy. Doesn't research and will present anything in the best way to push whatever narrative will get the most attention, likes, views, shares and ultimately puts the most money in their pocket. It is best to be skeptical of anything reported by any media outlet these days. Sad that we have come to this but it is true. |

I heard about this, what did he exactly say?? Nothing really. He just said that Trump and Ronald Reagan "were GOATs" and the Beyonce had trash music. Not much beyond that. I don't think there is anything wrong with his comments but I do think it was really stupid for him to make them on social media in a climate where most people are overly sensitive. Yeah, but Lippincot Rosen drew more red flags beyond political tweets. There were rumors that his team mates hated him, his general cockiness, which you could also glean from his tweets, and scouts talking about how he doesn't listen to coaching that he disagrees with, etc. |

Magilla, while I respect your opinion to dislike the president, I don't think your comments are adding anything productive to the discourse.
