Trump discusses 'showers with Arnold Palmer' in bizarre rant, Internet says his 'brain is mashed potatoes'
LATROBE, PENNSYLVANIA: Former president Donald Trump dedicated over 12 minutes to celebrating golfing legend Arnold Palmer's legacy and character, but dived into a tangent to ramble about the golfer's private parts during his Pennsylvania rally.
Addressing supporters at the campaign event in Latrobe in the key battleground state, which is also Palmer's birthplace, on Saturday, October 19, the GOP presidential nominee deviated from his usual rants to mention intimate details about the golfer.
Trump started by hailing the late golfer's career and recounting his previous interactions with him.
"There were a few golfers that you could say may be slightly better, a few, not many," the real estate mogul said as per The Independent. "But there was nobody that had his magic."
Trump: "Arnold Palmer was all man and I say that in all due respect to women, and I love women, but this is a guy that was all man...When he took showers with the other pros they came out of there, they said, ‘Oh my God. That's unbelievable.’” pic.twitter.com/3GcW8ImFjS

Donald Trump's bizarre picturization of Arnold Palmer's private parts
Deviating from the Palmer-hailing session, Donald Trump ranted about what other golfers said about the legend's manhood size.
"Arnold Palmer was all man and I say that in all due respect to women, and I love women, but this guy -- this is a guy that was all man," the MAGA leader said, adding the golfing star 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'. I had to say it," he added.
Trump further said he had to say about the shower part because it was "true."
Though his bizarre remarks about Palmer's private parts earned some chuckles from the crowd, the response on social media was far from the rallygoers' response.
Palmer, born in 1929 in Latrobe, earned the nickname 'The King' for being a legendary golfer in the history of the US. In a career spanning six decades, he won seven major titles and, in 1998, won the PGA Tour Lifetime Achievement Award. He passed away in Pittsburgh at the age of 87.
Trump did his final stretch of the campaign in Pennsylvania ahead of Election Day, only two weeks away. The key swing state that holds 20 electoral votes could play a decisive role in the final outcome of his face-off against Vice President Kamala Harris.
In 2020, President Joe Biden defeated Trump with a narrow one-point lead in the state, and at present, the former president and Harris are in a neck-to-neck race.
