Trump and Mickelson are neck and neck for biggest losers on the planet.
Trump's not a loser, he's right up there with Franklin Pierce, Pehr Svinhufvud, Aden Abdulle Osman Daar, and other household names who have changed the world in their only term. Look how many times he won impeachment, Horace, Donald Trump is anything but a loser.
Plus, he's never lost a game of golf, if you believe what you read.
Would have been interesting if President Trump would have been able to play Premier Kim Jong Il of the DPRK.

One of golf’s greatest feats is to shoot one’s age.
So, imagine how spectacular a day Kim Jong-Il had back in 1994. The North Korean dictator, who died on Saturday of heart failure at age 69, scorched the 7,700-yard Pyongyang Golf Course in a stunning 38-under par, 34.
Now, before getting all bent out of shape that such a score is impossible or clearly the product of creative scorekeeping on the part of the “Dear Leader,” it’s important to note that witnesses attest to his great round.
According to reports, Kim, who was 52 at the time, carded no worse than a birdie on any hole at the country’s only golf club. He also had five holes-in-one in the round, which was witnessed by 17 armed bodyguards.
“He is an excellent golfer,” Park Young Man, the club professional, told the International Herald Tribune a couple of months after Kim’s historic round, which was widely-reported in North Korea’s state-controlled media.
Good thing for Tiger Woods and his contemporaries Kim spent his time serving his people because clearly he could have ruled the PGA Tour too.

Supposedly, it was the first time he had ever golfed!!!
