‘Trump cheating at golf': Massive claim emerges amid Scotland trip; caddie video draws attention

Hindustan Times5 hours ago
A video of President Donald Trump playing golf during his Scotland trip has gone viral. The clip, showing the 79-year-old's caddie allegedly tossing a ball into the light rough near a bunker, has sparked a 'cheating' row. Now, several social media users claim that Trump was 'cheating at golf' - a sport he loves.

Neither Trump nor the White House have responded to the renewed 'cheating' allegations yet.
'Trump caught cheating at golf, watch the second guy in the red vest toss a ball behind him,' one person wrote on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.

'Watch his caddy drop the ball in a more favorable location for him. First he cheated on his wife with children, and now he's cheating at golf. What low will he not stoop to?' another person tweeted.
The two X users posted videos of the alleged 'cheating' incident.
The video, recorded during Trump's Saturday round, shows him arriving at a bunker in a cart, followed by a caddie dropping a ball just short of the sand trap.
Trump then approaches and hits from the new position, prompting accusations of 'cheating'. This echoes past allegations, including claims from Rick Reilly's book Commander in Cheat, which details the president's alleged habit of manipulating shots.
President Trump's Scotland trip, with scheduled talks with EU and UK leaders, has drawn criticism. Several Democrats noted that the 79-year-old is spending most of his time at Turnberry and his Aberdeen course.
Rick Reilly, who has played with the president, spoke to The Spun about Trump's golf habits - including taking unearned chip-ins and claiming he 'cannot lose' and will 'do anything to cheat'.

Trump strikes EU deal
The US and European Union agreed on a landmark deal that will see the bloc face 15% tariffs on most of its exports, including automobiles. This comes less than a week before the deadline for Trump's higher tariffs to take effect.
Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced the deal Sunday at his golf club in Turnberry, Scotland, although they didn't disclose the full details.

US to release result of probe into chip imports in two weeks

The Trump administration will announce the results of a national security probe into imports of semiconductors in two weeks, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said on Sunday, as President Donald Trump suggested higher tariffs were on the horizon. Lutnick told reporters after a meeting between Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen that the investigation was one of the "key reasons" the European Union sought to negotiate a broader trade agreement that would "resolve all things at one time." Trump said many companies would be investing in semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, including some from Taiwan and other places, to avoid getting hit by new tariffs. He said von der Leyen had avoided the pending chips tariffs "in a much better way." Trump and von der Leyen announced a new framework trade agreement that includes across-the-board 15% tariffs on EU imports entering the United States. Trump said the agreement included autos, which face a higher 25% tariff under a separate sectoral tariff action. The Trump administration in April said it was investigating whether extensive reliance on foreign imports of pharmaceuticals and semiconductors posed a national security threat. The probe, being conducted under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, could lay the groundwork for new tariffs on imports in both sectors. The Trump administration has begun separate investigations under the same law into imports of copper and lumber. Earlier probes completed during Trump's first term formed the basis for 25% tariffs rolled out since his return to the White House in January on steel and aluminum and on the auto industry. Trump has upended global trade with a series of aggressive levies against trading partners, including a 10% tariff that took effect in April, with that rate set to increase sharply for most larger trading partners from August 1. The U.S. relies heavily on chips imported from Taiwan, something Democratic former President Joe Biden sought to reverse during his term by granting billions of dollars in Chips Act awards to lure chipmakers to expand production in the United States.
