6. Trump's answer to being shut out: Create his own.

1. Trump was refused membership at the toney Maidstone Club in East Hampton and other established clubs. He bought Mar-A-Lago, Bedminster, and Doral and created his own clubs.

2. Trump couldn't buy an NFL team, so he created the U.S. Football League.

3. Trump couldn't salvage the PGA refusing to use any of his golf courses, so he went to the Saudis to compete with the PGA.

9. He didn't create the USFL. He bought the Generals in their second year.

He did kill it however, by convincing the other owners they needed to play in the fall, and to sue the NFL for “billions.” The judgment was $1.00, which was increased to $3.00 (trebled), leading to the demise of the league.

7. In most other sports, this would make him a pariah

and the press that covers the sport would never let people forget what he did, but this is golf and it seems like the golf press tries way too hard to be friendly toward the golfers and is more concerned about access than covering the sport critically.

8. Oh. And there should be a campaign against Mickelson's sponsors

until at least a couple drop him.

Also, as mentioned on a local talk show, the Saudis have so much money to throw at this that it's just a matter of how far they want to take it.
