LIV Golf Nation reposted a tweet posted by Donald Trump on Sunday afternoon. He praised the 28,000 hard-working golfing professionals of America but criticized Seth Waugh, the CEO of the Professional Golfers’ Association.

He criticized Waugh’s $3 million annual salary and suggested that he could do the job for far less. Additionally, he applauded the “great professionals” who have excelled at golf clubs out of love for the sport rather than monetary gain.

Furthermore, Trump empathized with these professionals and hinted at initiating a campaign to remove the current PGA CEO from his position in favor of a more cost-effective leader. Talk about going all out!

Donald Trump concluded the tweet by referring to himself as the “favorite president.” This message comes in the wake of Trump’s recent setback following the release of the preliminary 2024 LIV golf schedule.
