Much like he did for his ex-wife, Donald Trump is once again digging himself a grave—only this time, it’s political. While the American economy teeters and Republicans revolt against his disastrous tariff plan, Trump has been hiding out at his private club, swinging a nine iron instead of facing the fallout.

And now, he’s caught in one of the most disgraceful scandals of his presidency—a scandal so grotesque even his allies struggle to spin it. But it’s not just what he did that’s shocking. It’s what he said afterward that makes it worse. Trump’s latest statement, delivered straight from his golf bunker, is the kind of delusional, tone-deaf move that only accelerates his political collapse.

Before diving into that, let’s start with the report Rachel Matto just broke, which lays out exactly how Trump turned a weekend at the golf course into yet another national disgrace.

Soldiers from Lithuania and Germany were participating in a ceremony in Vilnius to honor four American soldiers who died during a training exercise. Lithuanian citizens lined the streets, visibly moved to tears, and the president of Lithuania gave a heartfelt speech about service being more than a duty—it’s an emotion. American soldiers’ remains were to be flown home to Dover Air Base for a dignified transfer, a solemn, highly specific ceremony often attended by the U.S. president as a sign of respect.

But when those four young Americans returned home, President Trump skipped the dignified transfer. He didn’t wait at Dover. Instead, he went to Florida to watch a golf tournament and attend a golf dinner. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth represented him instead.

Trump’s own words show the depth of his indifference. Asked about the missing soldiers, he shrugged: “No, I haven’t. Nope. Next question.” He treated their sacrifice and families’ grief as background noise to his vanity.

While the nation mourned, Trump bragged about winning his senior club golf tournament as if anyone cared about his swing while the stock market plunged and military families grieved. This isn’t spin. It’s state-sponsored delusion, North Korea-level propaganda without discipline.

Meanwhile, Trump spent the week golfing, announcing chaotic tariffs that will cost families $3,800 annually—including retaliatory tariffs on a remote penguin-inhabited island—and advocating for cuts that threaten healthcare and retirement benefits.

His budget plan is a giveaway for billionaires. Over 30 years, it would spend $25 trillion on tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, add $37 trillion to the national debt, and hand tens of millions to Elon Musk, while middle-class families see almost nothing. For every dollar a teacher or waiter would get, someone in the top 0.1% receives $52,000. Nearly half the benefits go to the top 5%.

Families already struggling with healthcare, groceries, housing, gas, and imported business materials would be hit hardest. Medicaid, the nation’s largest insurer, would be decimated, threatening care for 80 million Americans, including two-thirds of nursing home residents, two-fifths of children, and one-third of rural Americans.

Trump’s administration is a cast of opportunists, sycophants, and power-hungry clowns, thriving on chaos because it disguises incompetence as strategy. While Americans struggle with skyrocketing costs and broken systems, Trump treats the presidency like a reality show—his goal isn’t to govern but to keep the cameras rolling.

This is reckless, arrogant, and detached from reality. Democracy itself is at risk when a man this irresponsible holds power. Congressman Adam Schiff put it bluntly: Trump’s golf clubs are his escape and his throne, and every round he plays drives the country deeper into crisis.
