Donald Trump<\/a> is being accused of cheating after the White House<\/a> shared over the weekend that the President won yet another golf tournament. However, in a new video that has emerged, many have accused Trump of cheating, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWinning on and off the course,\u201d the White House wrote in an X post, sharing an image of a scorecard showing Trump shot a 69 \u2015 67 after adjusting for his handicap, winning the men\u2019s senior championship at his Bedminster club.<\/p>\n

However, following this post, Trump is facing renewed allegations of cheating, with a video of him in Scotland last week going viral with the claim that he cheated. The video appears to show the caddie casually dropping the ball for him.<\/p>\n

Governor Newsom Press Officer shared the video on X, writing, \u201cCheater-in-chief\u201d.<\/p>\n

Sportswriter Rick Reilly wondered the day before Trump\u2019s latest tournament if Trump would dare to declare himself the winner. Reilly has previously golfed with Trump and later authored a book detailing how the President apparently cheats at games.<\/p>\n

\u201cTomorrow is the Senior Champ at Bedminster,\u201d Reilly wrote on X<\/a>. \u201cAre you shameless enough to pretend you won it? Even after the whole planet saw you cheat in Scotland? Is your ego that sick?\u201d<\/p>\n

After Trump\u2019s win, Reilly wrote in a follow-up<\/a>, \u201cGuess we got our answer. What a child.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reilly also shared the White House\u2019s post and wrote<\/a>, \u201cSo a chubby 79-year-old with the yips whose caddies have to throw it out of bunkers and rough just shot a 69 to win by 10? Sure. #CommanderInCheat\u201d.<\/p>\n

Reilly addressed another video showing a caddie dropping the ball for Trump in Bedminster, possibly from the day of the tournament. Sharing the clip, Reilly wrote<\/a>, \u201cSo you know, it’s NEVER legal for your caddy to drop a ball. YOU can drop one, but never on a green. And since this was a full-score event, its not legal for Trump to drag the ball into the hole. No, no, never. Our president is a f****** golf cheat.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Donald Trump is being accused of cheating after the White House shared over the weekend that the President…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":44131,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[443],"tags":[31081,49,48,31166,622,31168,31080,31167,82,31165],"class_list":{"0":"post-44130","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-bedminster","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-cheating-allegations","12":"tag-golf","13":"tag-newsom","14":"tag-rick-reilly","15":"tag-senior-championship","16":"tag-sports","17":"tag-trump-golf-tournament"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44130"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44130\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44131"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
