On the third and final day of the former US president’s Saudi-sponsored LIV tournament, Donald Trump, Fox News personality Tucker Carlson, and Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene were all spotted laughing in response to the chants of “Let’s go Brandon” at Bedminster Golf Club.
As the slogan that has been substituted for the chant “f*** Joe Biden” is heard across the green, all three are seen laughing and grinning in a video that was posted to Twitter on Sunday and has received close to 150,000 views.
The 76-year-old ex-president grinned and pumped his fists in time with the chant. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia joined Carlson and Trump to watch the action at the Trump National Golf Club, and Carlson, who had previously insisted he would never run for president, was also grinning and laughing.
On July 29, LIV arrived at Trump’s club, causing controversy among some 9/11 victims who believe the Saudi-sponsored event shouldn’t be welcomed in the US.
A mere 40 miles from Bedminster, New York City, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania, the September 2001 atrocity sparked outrage when the former president claimed there was no evidence linking Saudi Arabia to it.
In Bedminster, Sunday marked the conclusion of the competition.
After that, it will continue at The International Golf Club outside of Boston before coming to an end on September 18 at Rich Harvest Farms in Illinois.
The rallying cry heard across the golf club Following his most recent jab at Biden on Saturday, Trump said that the president’s rapid COVID reinfection was actually dementia.
On Sunday, Trump joked on his Twitter rival TruthSocial that Joe Biden’s second case of Covid, sometimes known as the China Virus, was tragically misdiagnosed by his doctors.
He has dementia instead, but he is cheerfully making a full recovery.
Joe is considering relocating, part-time, to one of those lovely Wisconsin nursing homes where, amazingly and for the first time in history, nearly all of the inhabitants had the strength and ability to live.
On July 15, Carlson told onlookers in an interview with former New York Times media journalist Ben Smith, “I have zero ambition, not just politically, but in life.”
The longtime host of Carlson Tonight said, “My objective is to write my screenplay by 8 pm,” saying he was content with his day job and that he had no plans to enter politics like Trump did a few years ago.
Carlson said to Smith, “I don’t want power, I’ve never wanted power. I’m frustrated by things, I want them to change, but I’ve never been driven by a desire to control people.
In response to the journalist’s follow-up enquiry regarding the likelihood of a campaign in 2024 in light of circulating online rumours, Carlson laughed at the topic, adamantly telling Smith that he was ‘not running’ and that he was a “talk show host.”
Carlson responded, throwing the former Times reporter his trademark chuckle, “I’m not running.” I run a talk show. I have fun at work.
even if they were cast in violation of the law, the will to vote.
Get well soon, Joe,” said Trump, who has continued to hint at a possible presidential bid in 2024.
Following persistent reports that the Fox News staple will leave his lucrative TV profession for a move into politics, Carlson made an appearance at LIV. This idea was further fuelled by Carlson’s most recent public appearance on July 15 in Iowa.
Despite the hopes of some conservatives dissatisfied with other potential candidates, such as Trump and Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Carlson suggested he would run for president during his appearance before a crowd of 1,800 Christian conservatives in Des Moines for the Family Leadership Summit.
However, the talking head did advise the conservative Christian audience to forego other candidates who would be damaging when choosing a GOP nominee in 2024.
He told the crowd, to roaring applause, “You need to be really wary of candidates who care what The New York Times thinks.”
He cited Nikki Haley, a former governor of South Carolina and UN ambassador, as an example, accusing her of pandering to the left in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd in 2020.
After the incident, Haley, a Republican who has also been mentioned as a potential GOP presidential candidate in 2024, posted a tweet in which she said that the Black man’s death was “personal and painful” to her and that it would prove to be “personal and painful” to everyone in the months to come.
Carlson replied, “Of course, what happened next was personal and painful for everyone. “Our cities were destroyed. Several persons passed away.
He said, “And I wondered why anyone else might find what happened between a cop and George Floyd outside a convenience shop in Minneapolis to be personal and upsetting. What on earth are you talking about?
You’re attempting to win over The New York Times readers whose opinions you genuinely value.
The event was notable, though, because it took place in Iowa, the first state to choose the Republican presidential nominee every four years. Carlson also mocked environmentalists and proponents of transgender rights throughout the presentation.
The meeting was held at the same forum where Carlson’s friend Trump spoke seven years ago, before the mogul completed his eventual transition from a business personality to the head of the US executive branch.
During that appearance, the Apprentice host told onlookers that fellow candidate John McCain was “not a war hero” because he was captured while fighting in Vietnam.
This meeting only served to fuel speculation about Carlson’s potential run.
Meanwhile, the Fox anchor has long been mentioned as a prospective presidential candidate, should Donald Trump decide against a third bid.
As of Sunday, the former president continued to lead the polls, ahead of fellow conservatives including Florida’s Ron DeSantis and Texas’ Ted Cruz.
The only one of the four to publicly declare his interest in the presidency is Trump.
At his Bedminster, New Jersey club on Sunday, the former president was seen mingling with golfers and signing autographs for fans. Carlson, Georgia Rep.
Greene, 48, and Don Jr., 44, were also present. The event had drawn criticism for being sponsored by the Saudi royal family and for allegedly downplaying links between the Saudis and 9/11.
However, for an undisclosed fee, the former president agreed to host the tournament at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster.
The high-powered group watched the tournament from a VIP area at the New Jersey location, where he was photographed gorging on food alongside Carlson and other spectators.
He had earlier on Sunday mocked President Joe Biden for his COVID-19 re-diagnosis on the social media platform Truth Social.
Despite no longer exhibiting symptoms after contracting the infection earlier this month, the president tested positive on Saturday after testing negative for four straight days.
It was an unusual but not unheard-of side effect of the medication Paxlovid, according to his doctor.
However, Trump claimed that Biden had “dementia” rather than the coronavirus and exploited the claim to forward one of his persistent claims about electoral fraud involving the registration of 2020 voters in key areas like Wisconsin.

Trump’s son cut a relaxed figure while sporting a black Trump hat and a dark green polo with the course’s name emblazoned on it.
Lara, his wife, demonstrated her sense of style by donning a white and yellow summer dress with a boy in the centre and sparkling blue sandals with stars on them.
The tournament, which goes by the tagline “Golf but louder,” has caused controversy in the sporting community.
In light of a recently declassified government report that suggests there were connections between the terrorists responsible for the 9/11 attack and the Saudi Arabian government, some athletes refuse to compete in protest against Saudi Arabia’s history of human rights violations, and the event has been attacked by the families of 9/11 victims.
Since the tournament began, many of those families congregated at the neighbourhood library close to Trump’s club to voice their opposition because they were unable to get close to the actual event due to the Secret Service’s heavy presence there.
The voices of more families of 9/11 victims were heard.
One speaker said, “We’re standing here, in the backyard of where 750 people were turned to dust.”
We cannot believe we have to speak out against a government that is attempting to sports-wash or whitewash their atrocities 21 years later.
Red caps with the words 9/11 Justice were worn by the demonstrators in Bedminster.
Both Trump and many of his supporters wore red clothing, but theirs bore the slogan “Make America Great Again.” Many more were donning TRUMP hats.
In a statement to reporters at the golf course earlier this weekend, Trump defended his decision to host the show, saying, “I’ve known these people for a long time in Saudi Arabia and they have been friends of mine.”
They hold significant stakes in a large number of American businesses, and frankly, what they are doing for golf and the players is fantastic. The pay will significantly increase.
For a very long time, many players did not love the PGA. They now have a choice, and no one could have predicted that it would result in such a gold rush.
In regards to 9/11, he stated: “Unfortunately, nobody has been able to unravel 9/11.
They ought to have, too. No one has actually been there in regards to the psychopaths who perpetrated that terrible act against our city, our nation, and the world.
Later, when he stepped off the first tee, Trump even made a suggestion that he will make another run for the presidency.
You are going to be overjoyed. Soon, we’ll let you know,’ he promised.
He remarked, “They just did a story on me, lovely.” The first in five years, I believe. Front page, let them know how grateful I am.
