Stinky doesn't care. He just won another golf tourney at Bedminster.

Trump: "The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship! Thank you very much to all of those who participated. I won with a 70, & am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I'm given very little time to practice, bc I'm focused on many other things. It's called TALENT, and I have it"
