This is some authoritarian-style gaslighting https://t.co/2Ckvg7XWIy pic.twitter.com/LKa5wVBzXg

There's cheating a 10 year old.  And there's cheating at golf.

Because it has no referees or umpires, golf is especially looked upon as a game played with honor.  To cheat at golf is a very low form of cheating.  Indeed (if you're old enough), you'll remember that Auric Goldfinger cheated in a golf game with Bond.  Goldfinger owned that course, too.  To cheat a child in the bargain?  Not even Goldfinger would stoop that low.

And then, as the Silverberg story put it (I don't have time now):  you fall through.

I’m more distressed thinking there is 35% of Americans saying “Damn right he did. Way to go, Mr. President!”

And lower and lower we descend.
