Former President Donald Trump said of golfer Arnold Palmer, « this is a guy that was all man. »
Former President delivered unusual and vulgar remarks Saturday about the late golf legend while campaigning in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, as the campaign enters the final stretch to Election Day.
The former president spoke for more than 10 minutes about Palmer, who was born in Latrobe, at a rally at the local airport named in Palmer’s honor.
« He was an incredible man, he was an incredible champion, and he came from Latrobe », Trump said.
Then his comments appeared to go off script.
« This is a guy that was all man », the former president said. « This man was strong and tough, and I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there, they said, ‘Oh my God, that’s unbelievable.' »
To laughter, Trump added, « I had to say it. »
Trump noted that he’s been to Latrobe and told the story before, but « not in this kind of detail.
