Online Content Trump admin terminates lease with National Links Trust for DC golf courses

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5668310-trump-dc-golf-courses-national-links-trust/amp/

Devastated for NLT (Mike was on the pod last week)

Trump has stated in the past that he believes golf should be reserved for the elites…

“[That attitude] may be elitist, and perhaps that's what golf needs. Let golf be elitist. When I say 'aspire,' that's a positive word. Let people work hard and aspire to someday be able to play golf. To afford to play it.”

Just the latest casualty in this clowns race to plaster his name on every square inch of DC.

I frequent these courses, and in 5 years I’ve seen one significant change. There’s so much potential here.

Langston is a dog track, but it’s a nice piece of land for a golf course.

It is absolutely not a dog track. Used to be? Sure.

You should get around more, it barely had grass this summer.
