One of the emperor Augustus's best tricks for legitimizing his authoritarian rule: he made a point of losing at games, joking about his bad luck, and paying his forfeits cheerfully. It made his reign look less arbitrary and terrifying to fellow members of the Roman elite.

Can you imagine Barack Obama getting the official White House twitter account to post the score of his pick up basketball game? Or Clinton posting his morning jogging times? Absolutely batshit crazy nonsense.
.. and was that ass-crazy that he had to be removed out of office ...
It was Elon Musk’s 4-year old child
We have mountains of video evidence that he sucks ass at golf, it's embarrassing people still go along with the charade.

North Korea's Kim once played a round of Golf where he made a score of 18: A "Hole in One" on every hole, with 54 Below Par.
It’s Commodus
Call me selfish, but I really don’t think giving up $300K (so far) is a fair trade for his golf tournaments.
We’re the parasites remember?
How do they not realize how pathetic this shit makes them look?
That would explain a lot.
This golf tournament must be something like that…
Oh, wait a minute: Augustus paid for these… not the Roman “taxpayer” or Saudi Arabia.
well i am a MUSHROOM
CLOUD MOTHERFUCKER, motherfucker!
The fake president that is REALLY a felon, is still in never, never land!
His crashed economy is to real for him to deal with!
People must let him win.

Whereas the former notoriously had relations with his own sister, Trump has made it nice and sparkling clear that he'd like to do the same-- and maybe even **has** done the same-- with his own daughter.
I mean except those pesky court cases, the pandemic and bankruptcies and the 2020 election
But Augustus at least understood one thing: the value of restraint. Today’s version? Performance without proportion.
