14. In higher social circles....

golf is inherently a gentleman's game. Character, honesty, and social integrity are the coin of the realm. Trump has none of those.

Augusta National was, until 1990, a completely segregated entity, until they accepted a man named Ron Townsend as their first Black member. They didn't accept their first female member until 2012, when Condoleezza Rice and another woman were granted membership.

As of today, they've never extended an offer of membership to a 34 time convicted felon, convicted rapist, twice impeached, Russian asset. But you never know.
