Trump makes lewd remarks about Arnold Palmer at rally in late, legendary golfer's Pa. hometown

Trump kicked off his rally in Latrobe, Pa., with a detailed story about Arnold Palmer, at one point even praising the late golfer's genitalia.

The former president kicked off his rally Saturday with a detailed story about Arnold Palmer, at one point even praising the late, legendary golfer's genitalia.

Trump was campaigning in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where Palmer was born in 1929 and learned to golf from his father, who suffered from polio and was head pro and greenskeeper at the local country club.

Politicians saluting Palmer in his hometown is nothing new. But Trump spent 12 full minutes doing so at the top of his speech and even suggested how much more fun the night would be if Palmer, who died in 2016, could join him on stage.

"Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women," Trump said. "This is a guy that was all man."

Then he went even further.

Tim Walz join ABC's 'The View'

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Vice President Harris' running mate, joined ABC's "The View" on Monday.

His interview comes after Harris herself appeared on the show as part of a media blitz earlier this month.

Walz recently quipped on Trump's visit to a McDonald's on Sunday as part of his mockery of Harris' past employment there. Walz said he took "full responsibility" for the campaign stop after he once joked he couldn't imagine the former president working a McFlurry machine.
