President Joe Biden’s campaign has officially responded to a challenge from former President Donald Trump to play 18 holes of golf.
At his rally at Trump National Doral in Miami on Tuesday night, Trump declared his willingness to take on Biden in a 1-on-1 golf match for charity.
“I’m officially challenging ‘Crooked Joe’ to an 18-hole golf match right here, on Doral’s Blue Monster, considered one of the greatest tournament golf courses anywhere in the world, ” Trump said. “It will be among the most watched sporting events in history, maybe bigger than the Ryder Cup or even the Masters. I will even give Joe Biden 10 strokes a side…That means 20 strokes in case you don’t play golf. I will give him 10 strokes a side and if he wins, I will give the charity of his choice one million dollars.”
Not long afterward, Biden’s campaign responded with a scathing statement filled with half-truths and outright falsehoods.
