The buggy wasn’t driven by Trump, but is thought to be his “getaway vehicle” should anyone open fire on the course. The black, obviously armored vehicle followed Trump around as he played golf, with many experts noting that it bore similarities to “The Beast” — Trump’s protective vehicle stateside.
Where is the bubble around him when he gets out of the thing. I assume that’s next on the list?
Cool cool cool. Release the files.
Sounds like the Scottish was to see the files too.
Golf force one… 🤮
Here’s hoping everyone gets a hole in one on this golf day?
‘Bogey Actual’
My reactions in order:
“Oooo… where can I get this armored UTV?”
“Damn, it’s not an armored UTV. Rifle-rated armor would probably be too heavy anyway. Author sucks.”
googles armored UTV
“Helloooooo The Armored Group!”
Whatever. Epstein.
FORGET EPSTEIN BRO! PLEASE BRO!! PLEASE FORGET EPSTEIN!!!
He cheats at golf as well.

Sorry it’s from Reddit .
No he cheats at golf poorly. If he did it well he wouldn’t get caught all the time.
A goddamned armored golf cart.
That sets a new personal record of my ‘most out of touch, elitist thing someone can have or do’.
…
Well, Scotland basically did invent sniping, so it does make sense that a man with a
tiny penisfragile ego, who’s been targeted by at least two snipers, would want some protection on a series of giant, open fields…… at least it isn’t painted gold.

Punk bitch. Pedo rapist.
The Mirror is a shit rag, fuck that newspaper.
But ya.
The Mirror is the closest thing remaining to a left wing tabloid in the UK.
A good one? No.
This exists. That alone is enough for me.
If your president needs an armoured golf buggy when visiting an allied country, you may want to rethink your choice of president.
They have to hide in their own country behind bullet proof cars and windows. In developed countries the equivalent of the president takes the bike or train to work.
That’s probably less armor than he has around him in the official limo when he’s here.
I’d guess that there are more people with anti-materiel rifles over here.
…Lee Harvey?
Going by the article, it’s just a freak coincidence.
The names “Lee Harvey” and “Osvaldo” (Osvaldo is the Spanish equivalent to “Oswald”) drew comparisons to Lee Harvey Oswald, who was suspected of having assassinated President John F. Kennedy. This led some to believe that the incident was set up to scare Carter into submission.[7][8]
Way less. That limo is up armored as close to a tank as you could possibly get.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_state_car_(United_States)
The 2009 presidential state car model had night vision optics, a tear gas cannon, onboard oxygen tanks, an armored fuel tank filled with foam to prevent explosion, and pump-action shotguns.[1][26] Whether it was[29] or was not armed with rocket-propelled grenades,[26] the car featured eight-inch (200 mm) doors.[10]
In addition to defensive measures designed to protect the president, this state car has stores of blood in the president’s type for medical emergencies. The car is hermetically sealed against chemical attacks, and features run-flat tires, night-vision devices, smoke screens, and oil slicks as defensive measures against attackers. NBC reported that the car features armor made of aluminum, ceramic, and steel; the exterior walls have a thickness of eight inches (200 mm), the windows are multi-layered and five inches (130 mm) thick, and each door[32]—believed to be one foot (0.30 m) thick[37] and weigh as much as those on a Boeing 757—can electrify its handles to deter entry.[32]

There are at least two identical Beasts with matching registration plates in every motorcade so attackers can’t be 100% certain which vehicle contains the president and which is the decoy. During President Joe Biden’s inauguration, there were actually seven Beasts deployed in the mother of all motorcades.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Service_Counter_Assault_Team
“Hawkeye” is the designation for a CAT assigned to the president, followed by the president’s Secret Service code name
CAT operates both as part of motorcades and at fixed sites. In the event a VIP, the VIP’s vehicle, or a protected site is attacked by multiple assailants, CAT is responsible for engaging and diverting the attackers, thereby buying the close protection shift time to evacuate the dignitary to a safe area.[9]
Hawkeye, when operating as part of a U.S. president’s motorcade, travels in a vehicle several car lengths behind the presidential state car.[11]

No doubt other stuff that isn’t made public.
They have closed airspace around him and they have fighter jets that will come investigate aircraft getting close.
https://www.faa.gov/newsroom/restricted-airspace-0
In the case of Presidential movement, the TFR is usually comprised of an outer ring (usually 30 nautical miles, but sometimes slightly more or less) and one or more inner rings (usually 10 nautical miles, but sometimes 8, 9, or 10 nautical miles). The dimensions and, even the shape, of the rings are sometimes altered to suit specific needs. For example, some TFRs are structured so that the outer ring consists of the lateral limits of a particular airport’s Class B airspace, or are created with cut-outs, as noted later in this resource.
I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if, especially in this era of easy accessibility to drones, if they’re also carrying some sort of surface-to-air weaponry, though I don’t think I’ve ever read anything about it.
Instead of using this new pathetic armoured golf cart, maybe Trump should use one of these cars as a golf cart.
It’d sink in a water hazard.
But he has multiple of them. So just use a spare!
It’d get graffitied, set on fire by protestors, and then sunk into a water hazard.
But luckily there’s many more of them available! So pick another spare.
And would you look at that, now he has the strongest golf cart money can buy!
But look at that! He’s got yuuuuge… tracts of driving ranges.
Pretty sure it has flares as well. They put everything they’ve got into it.
Air Force One does. I dunno about the ground motorcade, though.
And I’m sure that the E-4 does too.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_E-4
The Boeing E-4 Advanced Airborne Command Post (AACP), the current “Nightwatch” aircraft,[2] is a series of strategic command and control military aircraft operated by the United States Air Force (USAF). The E-4 series are specially modified from the Boeing 747-200B for the National Emergency Airborne Command Post (NEACP) program.[3]
The E-4 serves as a survivable mobile command post for the National Command Authority, namely the President of the United States, the Secretary of Defense, and successors. The four E-4s are operated by the 1st Airborne Command and Control Squadron of the 595th Command and Control Group located at Offutt Air Force Base, near Omaha, Nebraska. An E-4 when in action is denoted a “National Airborne Operations Center” (NAOC) and has been nicknamed the “Doomsday plane”.[4]
When the President travels outside of North America using a VC-25A as Air Force One, an E-4B will deploy to a second airport in the vicinity of the President’s destination, to be readily available in the event of a world crisis or an emergency that renders the VC-25A unusable.[citation needed] When President Barack Obama visited Honolulu, Hawaii, an E-4B was often stationed 200 miles away at Hilo International Airport on Hawaii Island.[28][29]
Ya. But Gaza…
All I have to say is I hope those people are happy. And proud. And satisfied.
Wonder how much that thing cost us.
A buggy doesn’t do him any good if he’s outside of it taking a swing. If he’s that scared, why is he even out playing golf?
Good question, why does he even play golf when all he does is cheat at it just like he does at everything in his life? My best guess is he is just trying to emulate actual successful people.
He wants to feel like a winner, and it doesn’t matter to him if he’s actually a winner. He’s the biggest, sorest loser in the world, and his ego is just too fragile to admit it to himself.
He “plays golf” because it allows him to have secret meetings with other criminals in the middle of a large, open, and locked down field
The buggy wasn’t driven by Trump, but is thought to be his “getaway vehicle” should anyone open fire on the course. The black, obviously armored vehicle followed Trump around as he played golf, with many experts noting that it bore similarities to “The Beast” — Trump’s protective vehicle stateside.
I mean we haven’t seen this with other presidents.
It’s a getaway vehicle.
I think you’re saying that fallback security measures are useless?
He will get his caddy to drop a ball into the hole, and call it a hole-in-one
He has been the same cheater at golf his entire life.
If the people of Scotland, of all places, have a problem with you, you should reevaluate your life choices.
Of course he won’t though.
I dunno, everyone I know who has moved there has eventually been kilted by the locals.
I thought people in scotland had a problem with everyone? Including the scots.
His mother’s side is Scottish.
her story is so sad. she was basically a mail order bride (it’s actually even sadder and more manipulative and exploitative than that)
And the family curse continues
almost like who raises kids and how they’re raised matters and resisting fascism starts with nurturing within children empathy
Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!
