I piss on you Donald Trump
The major golf organizations are likely to want a mulligan after a shamelessly tepid response to Donald Trump's racist remarks about Mexican immigrants.
But then again, golf has always been a bigoted sport. And still is.
That joint statement issued Wednesday by the LPGA, PGA Tour, PGA of America and USGA -- who are all connected to Trump via tournaments -- insisted the organizations don't share Trump's inflammatory views on immigrants.
The Spineless Four said they have a "strong commitment to an inclusive and welcoming environment in the game of golf," but failed to say whether they would take action against their openly racist partner.
The statement is, frankly, laughable.
Here's what they're committed to: Issuing weakly-worded, attorney-washed statements that poorly feign indignation while protecting a narrow-minded billionaire they're in bed with.
But if Trump's remarks about Mexican "rapists" weren't enough, he also doesn't believe golf should be inclusive. So, he spits in the faces of the LPGA, PGA Tour, PGA of America and USGA there, too.
