Grace claimed that Capriglione’s stance on abortion was hypocritical, alleging he funded abortions despite presenting himself as anti-abortion. This is particularly notable as Capriglione authored Texas’s stringent “trigger” abortion ban, which makes performing an abortion a felony. Capriglione admitted to infidelity but denied paying for any abortions, stating his family has forgiven him.

Trump Caught Cheating at Golf in Embarrassing Video | The president has long been accused of cheating at golf. A viral video of him in Scotland backs up the claim.
Honestly, the whole thing feels unsurprising. We’re talking about a guy who’s been accused of cheating at just about everything, right? Business, relationships, taxes, the law – you name it. So, the fact that he’s apparently caught on camera cheating at golf in Scotland, well, it just seems to fit the picture. The video’s gone viral, and it’s not exactly painting a flattering portrait. The details are all there, the caddie, the placement of the ball, all the usual suspects.
It’s easy to see why people are saying this isn’t news. There’s a general feeling that this is just more of the same. It’s less about the specific act of cheating at golf, and more about what it says about his character. The sentiment is that if he’s willing to cheat at something so trivial, it’s indicative of a larger pattern of behavior.
The video itself is a bit cringe-worthy, if we’re being honest. But for the subject, does it have the capacity to even feel embarrassment? The way the caddie seems to nonchalantly drop the ball, as if it’s routine, is almost more telling than the cheating itself. It’s that level of casualness that hints at a long-standing habit. We have to ask, isn’t this a person that can’t be shamed?
The comments coming to light around this video touch on an important point: it’s not really about the golf. It’s about what that behavior reveals about a person, even if it’s just a game. There’s also the sentiment that if he had the caddies just place balls in easy lies, out of respect for his age, this wouldn’t be as big of a deal. The fact they need to hide it for his ego just shows how tiny his…well you get the picture.
And let’s be clear, the cheating at golf is just a tiny aspect of a bigger picture, a larger concern, which is the overall manipulation and exploitation of those around him. Some people bring up the idea of “useful idiot” and how that may affect the politics.
It’s also a bit ironic. The same person who has repeatedly claimed to be a champion of honesty and integrity is now seen with what is essentially a Goldfinger play. The fact that he’s known for bending the rules, in all areas of life, makes the golf cheating seem like a continuation of a long-standing pattern.
This isn’t the first time he’s been accused, of course. There’s a whole book dedicated to it. “Commander in Cheat” by Rick Reilly, if you want the details. This is not the first rodeo.
The core issue here is a lack of trust. It’s about a public figure whose words and actions are constantly under scrutiny. And when you have a history of bending the truth, manipulating situations, and generally playing fast and loose with the rules, well, a video of you cheating at golf just reinforces that impression.
This is a guy who has spent his life creating an image, and the golf course – or a lack thereof – is just another canvas for that narrative. It’s hard to believe he even cares about winning, at least, fairly. It’s all about the perception, the image of success, even if it’s built on a foundation of… well, let’s just say creative interpretation of the rules.
