        Oh man, I wish his response was “Of course I’m bad at golf. I’ve been too busy leading a country to have time practicing my hand at golfing.”

        I’m not really a golf person, but from passing knowledge, he said his handicap was +8 IIRC. I think that means that on an average course, he’d typically hit 8 strokes above par.

        Trump seemed incredulous of his claim, so I’m guessing that means Trump has a higher handicap?

      Here’s a transcript:

      [While talking about the Intelligence Tests he did]

      TRUMP: […] He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. He challenged me to a golf match. He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. […]

      BASH(Moderator): Thank you.

      President Biden?

      BIDEN: You’re going to see he’s six-foot-five and only 225 pounds – or 235 pounds.

      TRUMP: (inaudible).

      BIDEN: Well, you said six-four, 200.

      TRUMP: (inaudible).

      BIDEN: Well, anyway, that’s – anyway, just take a look at what he says he is and take a look at what he is.

      Look, I’d be happy to have a driving contest with him. I got my handicap, which, when I was vice president, down to a 6.

      And by the way, I told you before I’m happy to play golf if you carry your own bag. Think you can do it?

      TRUMP: That’s the biggest lie that he’s a 6 handicap, of all.

      BIDEN: I was 8 handicap.

      TRUMP: Yeah.

      BIDEN: Eight, but I have – you know how many…

      TRUMP: I’ve seen your swing, I know your swing.

      (CROSSTALK)

      BASH: President Trump, we’re going to…

      (CROSSTALK)

      TRUMP: Let’s not act like children.

      BIDEN: You are a child.

        I thought that was very funny. This and all the other Senates arent about facts or informing the viewer. It’s just two people bragging and insulting each other. Like a rap battle
