President Donald Trump has never been one to back down from a challenge—especially when it comes to golf. During a Thanksgiving call with members of the military, the 47th president once again showed his humor, confidence, and fighting spirit by poking fun at former President Joe Biden’s golf game. What began as a light-hearted question from a petty officer quickly turned into a sharp reminder of Trump’s energy and competitive drive, even on the golf course.
When the petty officer asked Trump about his golf game and whether he would ever play a match against Biden, Trump didn’t hesitate. “I’d love to play him,” he said. “I’ve invited him, but he doesn’t want to show up.” That simple sentence says a lot. Trump is ready and willing. Biden, it seems, is not.
Let’s be clear—golf is more than a game. It’s a test of focus, discipline, and physical ability. Trump has long been known for his strong golf skills. He’s won 38 club championships, including one just last year. And he did it while leading the country, dealing with constant political battles, and barely having time to practice. That’s impressive by any standard.
In contrast, Biden claims he’s a six handicap. For those who don’t know, a six handicap means you’re a very good golfer. But Trump isn’t buying it. “You’re not a six,” he said. “You’re not even a 60.” He even offered to give $1 million to charity if Biden could break 100—a challenge Biden has yet to accept.
Trump’s point isn’t just about golf. It’s about honesty, transparency, and strength. If someone is going to claim to be something—especially a leader of the free world—they should be able to back it up. Trump does. Biden doesn’t.
This whole exchange reminds us of the 2024 presidential debate in Atlanta, when Trump first mocked Biden’s golf skills. That debate was a turning point. It showed the clear difference between a strong, sharp leader and one who seemed tired and unsure. Since then, Trump has continued to challenge Biden—not only in policy and leadership—but even on the golf course.
Some might say Trump is just having fun. And yes, he is. But there’s a deeper truth here. Trump’s confidence shows that he’s still full of energy and ready to lead. His boldness is a sign of strength, not arrogance. In fact, it’s refreshing in a time when so many politicians hide behind excuses and spin.
When Trump cracked, “Biden can’t hit a ball 30 yards,” it wasn’t just a joke—it was a statement. Leadership takes strength. It takes clarity. And it takes the kind of competitive spirit that shows up whether you’re in the Oval Office or on the first tee.
Biden’s refusal to accept the golf match challenge speaks volumes. If he can’t face Trump on the golf course, how can he be trusted to stand up to America’s enemies? If he can’t swing a club with confidence, how can we expect him to defend our Constitution with courage?
President Trump, on the other hand, continues to show the same grit he’s always had. Whether it’s securing the border, standing up to China, or challenging a golf score, he doesn’t back down. That’s the kind of leadership this country was built on. It’s the same spirit our Founders had when they risked everything for liberty.
This Thanksgiving, as we give thanks for our freedoms and those who defend them, it’s good to see our President standing strong, smiling, and still swinging. After all, leadership isn’t just about policies. It’s also about character. And from what we’ve seen, Donald Trump has both.
