Trump takes no chances in armored golf buggy as protesters storm streets across Scotland

If your president needs an armoured golf buggy when visiting an allied country, you may want to rethink your choice of president.
- That's probably less armor than he has around him in the official limo when he's here.
  I'd guess that there are more people with anti-materiel rifles over here.
  EDIT: Oh, according to the article, that's just some sort of evacuation vehicle for if he does come under attack. Apparently he's in a regular golf cart.
  IIRC he wasn't in an armored vehicle when we had that sniper try to take him out when he was golfing here, so maybe the amount of armor is none in both cases.
  EDIT2: I don't know who the last President is where we haven't had at least one known incident where someone, usually us, tried to kill him. Probably quite a few years back.

  Going off a quick skim of that list:
  Trump: 11 incidents so far, with him being hit in the ear at one point.
  Biden: 2
  Obama: 11
  Bush Jr: 2
  Clinton: 5
  Bush Sr: 1
  Reagan: Only 1, though in that incident he was hit by a riccochet and the bullet stopped just short of his heart.
  Carter doesn't have any incidents, so I guess the last time we elected someone and then didn't try to kill them was the 1970s. Though this sounds kind of sketchy, and I dunno if maybe it should count as an attempt: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_Lee_Harvey
  EDIT3: https://www.reddit.com/r/greenberets/comments/v28lsk/what_is_the_average_casualty_rate_as_a_green_beret/
  What is the average casualty rate as a green beret?
  17 combat deaths per year divided by 7,000 active green berets per year is a fatality rate of approximately 0.24% per year
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_presidential_assassination_attempts_and_plots
  Four sitting U.S. presidents have been killed: Abraham Lincoln (1865), James A. Garfield (1881), William McKinley (1901), and John F. Kennedy (1963).
  From 1789 to 2025, we've had 236 years as a country led by a President, so about 1.70% annual mortality rate for Presidents. Going by those numbers, it's a little more than seven times as lethal to be President as to be Army special forces.
  EDIT4: Though the Netherlands has a higher rate of cannibalism of their national leaders.
  
  Way less. That limo is up armored as close to a tank as you could possibly get.
  
  ...Lee Harvey?
  
  Wtf, why is it always Harvey's?!? Tsk, tsk, give us a bad name...
- They have to hide in their own country behind bullet proof cars and windows. In developed countries the equivalent of the president takes the bike or train to work.
- Ya. But Gaza...
  All I have to say is I hope those people are happy. And proud. And satisfied.
  
  Many of us are none of these things.

Whatever. Epstein.
- FORGET EPSTEIN BRO! PLEASE BRO!! PLEASE FORGET EPSTEIN!!!
  
  Epstein? I don't know him. I've never met him.

If the people of Scotland, of all places, have a problem with you, you should reevaluate your life choices.
Of course he won’t though.
- I thought people in scotland had a problem with everyone? Including the scots.

  Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!
  
  His mother's side is Scottish.
  
  Scots hate living in Scotland; they only live there out of spite to the English.
- I dunno, everyone I know who has moved there has eventually been kilted by the locals.

He likes golf as he only likes to play holes from 1 up to 18.
- I wouldn't be surprised if he only ever plays the bottom 9.
  
  He said 12 is too young for him.

Scottish person here: Everyone hates him, especially after what he did in Aberdeenshire. We're pissed off that the First Minister is meeting with this bawbag.
- As somebody who has lost track due to the sheer volume of issues with this man... What did he do in Aberdeenshire?
  
  So in building his Aberdeenshire Golf Course he:
  Destroyed a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
  Tried to bully neighbouring landowners off their land by building a wall to block their sea view, cutting their electricity connection and generally harassing them.
  Tried to strong arm the Scottish Government into stopping an off shore wind farm which was so far off the coast you can barely see it (saw it myself, it's barely visible).
  Generally tried to interfere in Scottish Politics like he's King of Scotland.
  Generally, he's a cunt, and this was before his 2016 bid for president.
  
  Turned up there, fucking nonce.

Punk removed. Pedo rapist.

Cool cool cool. Release the files.

He cheats at golf as well.
- No he cheats at golf poorly. If he did it well he wouldn't get caught all the time.

  Sorry it's from Reddit .

As if you needed further proof that this thing is the antichrist, he's riding around the opposite of the pope mobile

  Amazing. Bravo!

I like how about 70 times a round he needs to leave the air conditioned comfort and stand verrry still, outside, for a few minutes at a time. That's more a risk than yahoos with placards will ever pose.

  And that's with all the cheating.

In other news: GTA VI release delayed, Rockstar says it needs more time to incorporate new ideas from reality, ensuring the game stays relevant with the current day and age. /s
- Assassinating a guy driving around in an armoured golf cart does sound like a GTA mission.
  
  Quick, someone plant land mines in the greens!
- GTA is developed in Scotland too!

Sounds like the Scottish want to see the files too.

more shit the Americans have to pay for by getting stupid with their voting

Epstein Epstein bo bepstein cabana fanna fo febstein fee fi moe mepstein...Epstein!!!

I was in the area of his golf course near Aberdeen earlier this year. I also noticed a lot of the farmers collect the farm dung and move it, probably to a centerlized place to be processed.
my idea was to pay some of these drivers to leave a few mounds of the shit next to the signs directing you from the freeway to the golf course. And then maybe a drop a few more in strategic areas so that the smell finds its way to the course.

My reactions in order:
“Oooo… where can I get this armored UTV?”
“Damn, it’s not an armored UTV. Rifle-rated armor would probably be too heavy anyway. Author sucks.”
googles armored UTV
“Helloooooo The Armored Group!”

I like that the attempt on him last year has him in at least enough fear to implement a backup in case it happens again. At least there's that tiny slice of retribution for being terrible.
- Both attempts were false flags.
- I want to believe that fear exists.
  It’s just that the secret service, full of shitheads though it may be, is also full of agents who have lid of time to think of and insist upon this kind of thing.
  Sure, they are all loyalists at this point and they know how to follow orders and not cross Dear Protectee, so Trump can’t exactly be against it. I could see one of the more senior agents tell him it’s to conceal and protect sensitive equipment and he just drools and nods along, though.
  The scope of his damage is so off the scope that it’s hard to care much about how things affect him. Let’s just see some changes that help some people or at least abstain from harming them. I’m ok if Trump has “fun” closing concentration camps or disbanding the nuGestapo with its budget larger than most militaries.

Golf force one... 🤮
Here's hoping everyone gets a hole in one on this golf day?
- 'Bogey Actual'

A goddamned armored golf cart.
That sets a new personal record of my 'most out of touch, elitist thing someone can have or do'.
...
Well, Scotland basically did invent sniping, so it does make sense that a man with a ~~tiny penis~~ fragile ego, who's been targeted by at least two snipers, would want some protection on a series of giant, open fields...
... at least it isn't painted gold.

- Yet

A buggy doesn’t do him any good if he’s outside of it taking a swing. If he’s that scared, why is he even out playing golf?
- Good question, why does he even play golf when all he does is cheat at it just like he does at everything in his life? My best guess is he is just trying to emulate actual successful people.
  
  He wants to feel like a winner, and it doesn’t matter to him if he’s actually a winner. He’s the biggest, sorest loser in the world, and his ego is just too fragile to admit it to himself.
  
  He "plays golf" because it allows him to have secret meetings with other criminals in the middle of a large, open, and locked down field
- The buggy wasn't driven by Trump, but is thought to be his "getaway vehicle" should anyone open fire on the course. The black, obviously armored vehicle followed Trump around as he played golf, with many experts noting that it bore similarities to "The Beast" — Trump's protective vehicle stateside.
  
  I mean we haven't seen this with other presidents.
- He thinks he's good at it
- It's a getaway vehicle.
  I think you're saying that fallback security measures are useless?
- He will get his caddy to drop a ball into the hole, and call it a hole-in-one
  
  He has been the same cheater at golf his entire life.
- To quote Winston Churchill... a golf course is a waste of a good rifle range...

His get away cart.
I'm sorry, but if someone opens fire on Taco in chief and isn't a Maga apologist or false flag, they're going to make those shots count. It would buy him time if he lucked out, but not much
- Username checks out

You know he's gonna have to get out of that buggy at some point.

Where is the bubble around him when he gets out of the thing. I assume that’s next on the list?

Is he afraid someone is gonna start chucking all the Epstein files at him?

Wonder how much that thing cost us.

Hahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah, big strong leader y'all got there.
- The ones who asked for him are the ones who don't care.
  
  The ones who didn't ask for him cared, but not for their own country.

Government efficiency at its finest

Oh fear, there is so much fear, fear is so dense... yeah fear is dense like the fog inside that vehicle... hahahahaha good. The evil should be afraid, not us.

Loser

Real "I think you should leave" material

That thing is weak, The Beast is badass.
Those doors look like salvage from a circa 2002 Humvee
- Before we had to use improvised armor upgrades.
  
  That stupid flak jacket was just a seat cushion. Better than the actual cushion.

Who's a bussy removed? Trump's a bussy removed.

He didn't look very orange in that picture of him waving. He also looks so much older without makeup.
- That's why he sprays himself with it. He absolutely looks like a ghoul without it.
  
  The spray tan still makes Trumpy look like a ghoul.

This exists. That alone is enough for me.

The Mirror is a shit rag, fuck that newspaper.
But ya.
- The Mirror is the closest thing remaining to a left wing tabloid in the UK.
  A good one? No.

The Scots will just need some bigger bullets.

What a pansy little coward.

I gotta admit, the golf cart is pretty slick. They should have one for Luigi.
- It a Polaris Ranger ATV. ATVs like that are super popular as car alternatives in rural areas of the US (one part fun and one part way more fuel efficient than driving your F150 to the local bar) and many places have been quickly legalizing these costs-as-much-as-a-car-but-is-five-times-as-deadly-to-occupants vehicles on public roads. Hilariously this one looks just as plastic and cheap as the ones I see driving around where I live, but we all know this one has been heavily upgraded and armored. Seriously just look how low its squatting from the weight!
  
  I'm pretty sure Polaris used to have this ad about how closer together front and rear wheels was better for off-road, the ad ended somewhere along the lines of guess where we put the wheels on the Polaris Ranger, that's right. Now we have these monstrosities that cost way too much and aren't even good off-road, I'd take my crossover just about anywhere I would take that Polaris.

whoah what's his handicap?
- Have you heard him speak?
