Every Style, Every Home Nobody showed up. Donald it's official, Donald Trump is losing it as the PGA Tournament at his Doral Miami Golf Club is officially the worst attended PGA Tour stop in years and possibly in the entire history of the pga. As Rick Riley, who covers sports and who's actually covered Donald Trump cheating in golf rights, everything Donald Trump touches turns to shi. You know what? Now earlier in the week on Thursday, which was the first day of this Cadillac Championship PGA tournament that was set to take place in Doral at Donald Trump's golf club there, we took a look at what was going on at the 18th hole just to see how many people were in attendance. Now, we weren't seeing anybody throughout the golf course and other holes, but we figure, let's take a look at the 18th hole because usually that would be the most crowded, where all the players finish up their tournament. There was nobody there. And when I say not a single fan, I quite literally mean Zero. No fans showed up to this PGA tournament, utterly humiliating Donald Trump as he returned to Florida and then is now pretending to negotiate with Iran when they're not calling him at all. More on that in a moment. Because Donald Trump right now, in his panic, is pretending he doesn't even know there's a golf tournament. Indoor Al Miami, because it's that embarrassing. Because I don't even know, is there a tournament? Is there not a tournament? I'm too busy dealing with the Iranians. They keep on calling me. They're not calling you Donald. You are making this up. You lie about everything and you have been humiliated because no one showed up to the thing you care about most. The golf tournament in Doral also. So Donald Trump responsible for destroying the entire live golf league as Donald Trump promised a security umbrella to the Middle east and then did not deliver after all the quid pro quos they gave. Donald Trump Saudi Arabia said, we're shutting down the live golf tournament because it's not an essential investment from the Saudi. Private investment from the pip. We ain't doing that investment. So all of Donald Trump's golf buds are out of a job right now or about to be out of a job, and they want to come back and run to play for the pga. But the PGA saying, you abandoned us for the Saudis and that live tournament at all the Trump golf courses. Trump was helping prop up that live golf tournament. So the PGA saying, oh, we don't want you in our league right now. You tried to screw us over. So now Donald Trump is trying to use the power of the presidency to force the PGA to bring back the the live golfers. As Americans are suffering psychologically tortured by this sick, vile and disgusting regime of war criminals, this is what Donald Trump is focused on. So you see right here, our editor in chief, Ron Philip Koski posted what the 18th hole looked like on day one. I've got photos of day two, by the way as well. Same thing. Ron Philip Koski writes the crowd at the main grandstand around the 18th green at Trump Doral, Miami today with Ricky Fowler, Colin Morikawa, two of the biggest stars on the PGA Tour, absolutely empty. So some MAGA people didn't believe us. Like Midas Touch. You don't like Donald Trump, so you're just saying that it's empty. So there were people watching on day two. So certain mag accounts then said, wow, Midas Touch is actually telling the truth. Yeah, we always tell the truth. We always bring the receipts. We always bring the facts. Someone writes, did you see The PGA Tournament, the Cadillac Champ Championship at Trump Doral in Miami. In. I thought the Midas touch just found some shot of the 18th green. Seating was empty yesterday, so I watched round two today on the Golf Channel. There were zero people on 16, 17, and 18. Wow. Seriously? But there was a gigantic 15 foot golden statue of Donald Trump. Just like Kim Jong Un has his golden statues. Donald Trump put a golden statue there. So I have photos just of day two. You can see right here. I mean, look, to be fair, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14 people appear to be in the crowd. This other shot here, There may be 19 people in the crowd. And, you know, all of the commenters who are watching this live are like, where are the crowds? Where are the people? They ain't there. So on Friday night, Donald Trump gave a speech at something called the Forum Club in Palm Beach. It's supposed to be a nonpartisan club for thought leaders. They speak there. The first person to speak was Jimmy Carter in the 1970s. And it prides itself on nonpartisan, high level discourse and speeches and the exchange of ideas. Of course, Donald Trump ruined that, giving what I think was perhaps the most deranged speech yet by Donald Trump. And that's saying a lot. That was the speech. I covered it last night where Donald Trump's like, the President of Mexico. She's so pretty. And I said, oh, hello, you pretty woman. And she's like, oh, hey, Donald. Hey. I'm like, dude, what the hell is this guy saying? Donald Trump's like, robert E. Lee was so courageous in the Civil War. And he's like, you don't go up me hill, my mate. Don't go up me hill. It's like, okay, that's not a thing. You just made up Robert E. Lee lore. That doesn't app. This doesn't exist. Then Donald Trump's like, oh, I think we're pirates, America. We're like, we've turned our navy into the Pirates of the Caribbean, and so we just steal the Iranian cargo ships. I'm like, oh, yes, that's what you're doing. That's what Iran's calling you out for. It's pretty pathetic that the might and strength of the United States Navy is now being used for piracy. But yes, you called yourself a pirate. Any event at that speech, Donald Trump was like, you know, I, I hear I have a golf tournament taking place, but, you know, I'm so busy negotiating with the Iranians that, I don't know, I'm spending all this Time on the phone with the Iranians. You're on the phone, they're not calling you, they're not talking to you. You've made this up now for six weeks of just making up fake negotiations with them. It's really humiliating. As the German chancellor said, this is absolutely humiliating. And then cuz the German chancellor called you out like, oh, wow, wow, wow, I'm a little baby in Donald Trump. Then you moved 5,000 of our troops out of a joint air force base that the US has in Germany. In any event, here's Donald Trump saying that he's on the phone with the Iranians so much he doesn't even know that there's a tournament here. Play this clip.
Donald Trump
You know, so you'll be all very happy. And you know, it's right now I own Doral and right now we have a tournament. I'm so busy and we have the big Cadillac Championship going on, all the great players, the PGA Tour, and they're there. And yesterday somebody came up, said, sir, the tournament is great. I said, what tournament are you talking about? I'm so busy with the Iranians calling, trying to make a good deal and we're not going to let that happen. But got to make a bad. They've got to make a bad deal. But if they make a deal at all. Because frankly, maybe we're better off not making a deal at all. Do you want to know the truth? Because we can't let this thing go on. Been going on too long. But under the leadership of sec, by

the way, on Thursday when nobody attended and he found out that nobody was there and it was officially the worst PGA event in the PGA history as everything Donald Trump touches dies. He did the same thing in the Oval Office where he was like, yeah, I wish I could watch it. I'm just so busy right now talking to the Iranians. And then the reporter was like, well, what do you make of live? The fact that this Saudi back tournament, this live club, this lib league that brought all these PGA players and you were working with MBS to prop up live, they were doing all these quid pro quos at all of your golf courses. Um, what do you make of them shutting down and basically kicking out all the players? And Donald Trump's like, well, you know, I think that all the players should, should join together. All of the players should, you know, should work together. Anyway, here's what he says. Here, play this clip. Saudi Arabia is pulling the plug on live golf.
Donald Trump
Once that tour is gone, do you think the PGA Tour should welcome the defectors back with open arms. Well, I do. It's a great question. In fact, if I had time, I'd love to watch television today because the PGA Tour is playing at Doral, the Cadillac Championship, and I said, who's winning? I don't get a chance. I can't even look at it. Who is Jordan Speed? Oh, that's good. He's good. Great guy. Good putter, to put it mildly.
Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
Right?
Donald Trump
Very great guy. Chipper putter. No, it's. They're at my tournament right now, the pga in two weeks. Liv is going to be at my course right here on the Potomac. No, I'd love to see Liv, but. But I do believe that all of the golfers should be playing. The great golfers should be playing against each other. I do believe you. You know, it's sort of. They. They were viewing something as a monopoly, but it's way. In a way, it should be the opposite of a monopoly or. I want to see rory playing Bryson DeChambeau. I want to see big John Rom

playing
Donald Trump
Scotty, who's so great. Right, Scott. Scotty Scheffler is great, and I want to see him play John Rom and Bryson and all the different guys. They have great players on the lift, but it's almost like people want to see that. That's why the Masters were so good, because you saw everybody together. Patrick Reed played great. You know, he's on live, and he played great.

This episode of the Midas Touch podcast is brought to you by AG1. Spring is one of those seasons where everything speeds up. More travel, more events, more late nights, and it's easy for your routine to fall apart. That's why I try to keep at least one thing consistent every single day. And for me, that's AG1. Whether I'm on the road, grabbing an early flight, or just dealing with a packed schedule, the travel packs make it incredibly easy to stay on track. AG1 is a daily health drink that's clinically shown to support gut health and fill in common nutrient gaps. It's got 75 plus ingredients, including five clinically studied probiotic strains. So it replaces the need for a multivitamin, probiotics and a bunch of other supplements. And that's really the key. It simplifies everything. Most supplement routines are a mess. Pills, timing, schedules you can't keep up with. AG1 is just one scoop. 20 seconds and you're done. It becomes that daily anchor, the habit you stick to, even when everything else is chaotic and you know that everything is very chaotic right now. I found it really helps keep my energy steady, especially during these busy stretches. It also supports immune health with antioxidants and functional mushrooms. And the probiotics help with digestion and gut health health especially when your routine is all over the place. For me, I treat AG1 like a non negotiable ritual, not a supplement, just part of the day. Now whether I'm at home or on the move, it's become a major part of my daily routine.

Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
Riley, sports commentator who wrote a book specifically addressing Donald Trump cheating in sports. Here's what Rick Riley says. He goes, how's this for karma? Trump hitched his camel to the Saudis and live golf. He hosted their dumb tournaments on his courses. Then Trump Trump bombed Iran, so Iran bombed Saudi infrastructure for being a US Ally. So the Saudis can't afford or just don't want to spend $6 billion for live and killed it. So much winning. And Rick Riley also says the Saudi Royals are out. So who's ready to fund live now for only $6 billion over five years, you can allow stars like Sergio Garcia, Patrick Reed, Phil Mickelson to fly in G6s, play three days of golf a week and not worry about cuts. No TV execs to pamper cause there are no TV deals. Who's in? Everybody. Of course he's mocking it. And by the way, at this PGA tournament at Donald Trump's club, there were not a lot of stars playing there. Some of the top names in the PGA decided to skip the event. I mean you had five of the top 15 players in the world just giving Donald Trump the middle finger at the Cadillac Championship at Trump National Doral Ran Rory McElroy, Matt Fitz, Parag, Xander Schel, Robert McIntyre, Ludwig Aberg are all sitting out this week. They're like nah, we we're not going to play here. They knew that nobody was going to show up. And just can I show you what state regime media is doing right now? So on state regime media, which calls itself Fox, they're trying to like normalize all of this. So in between talking about oh Donald Trump is such a victim or White House correspondence dinner, oh can you believe it? Can you believe how courageous he is? So in between doing, doing that whole shtick, um, they talk about golf, they're talking about golf courses. And Donald Trump says that he's going to help live merge with the PGA and get all those players back to the pga. It's a really big initiative, Marsha, a really big initiative. This is what the American people want. Who watches this program in the United States of America as Americans are psychologically tortured by this disgusting fascist regime? And it's like, yeah, okay, he's doing the live thing. Very good, Donald. Good work. How pathetic. Anyway, here, play this clip.
Fox News / Bret Baier
The future of Liv golf is in jeopardy as Saudi Arabia pulls funding for the pro league after just four seasons. Fox News previously broke the news, Bret Baier did that Saudi Arabia is pulling the funding for the Professional Golf league after four seasons. President Trump now says he thinks the PGA Tour will welcome the players back.
Donald Trump
I do believe that all of the golfers should be playing. The great golfers should be playing against each other. There's something nice about all of the players playing together now. They'll all be accepted by the tour. There's no clue because they're great.
Fox News / Bret Baier
Let's see. Among the golfers in limbo following lives announcement, Jon Rahm, Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau who did not apply for reinstatement by the February deadline with the PGA Tour. We're gonna see what happens. My sense is they already built in some type of suspension and fine and then they go back to normal. You're not gonna help anybody by holding a grudge. How do you feel? What you mean you're not holding a grudge? If you're a PGA by holding a grudge against the golf. Oh, they should totally hold a grudge.
Ryan Reynolds
Really?
Donald Trump
Yeah.
Fox News / Bret Baier
Of course. They took the Saudis money and now they gotta suffer the consequences when the Saudis pull out.
Mint Mobile / Monday.com / Wayfair Advertiser
Yeah, but when it comes to sports, you're gonna always accept the ones who are really good.
Donald Trump
This is true.
Mint Mobile / Monday.com / Wayfair Advertiser
This is the best in the world. You're gonna accept them back, I'm sure.
Fox News / Bret Baier

Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
By the way, I like that. Rick Riley posted this AI image of that 15 foot gold statue of Donald Trump. Except this time it, it's kicking a golf ball and he posts the kicking of the golf ball. Because Donald Trump cheats when he plays the Midas Touch Network on numerous occasions. We've been the ones that caught Donald Trump cheating while playing golf. And we would find we'd have people out there, we'd see him kick the Golf ball. And he would take, when he was doing putts, he'd have like 20 foot putts that weren't going to go in, but he gave himself the putt, like, as though it went in the hole, even though he was like 20ft away. It's like, yeah, that's a gimme, I guess. And then he would not like where the ball would be positioned. And so he would just take it and he would have his caddy put it in a better position on the green when it would be in the rough or it would be in a bunker. Like, dude is so freaking pathetic. But I like AOC's perspective of it all. She spoke to our team on Capitol Hill, our D.C. bureau, and she was like, you know what, don't you kind of want this guy playing golf, though? Like, just keep him away. And if he plays golf, the more he plays golf, the less he's. The less he's in our faces. Here. Play this clip.
Donald Trump
One other quick question.
Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
Donald Trump, he's been playing a lot of golf while we're at war. Prices are going up. What do you make of Donald Trump's, I guess, work.
Political Analyst / Commentator
You know, obviously it's awful that this guy's playing golf, but in a way, we're already seeing that some of the most important, important military decision makers in the country are trying to keep him out of consequential decisions. So in some ways, you kind of want this guy on a golf course more than you want him in the Oval Office. But that also calls into question the 25th Amendment, because if he is being. If the determination is that Donald Trump cannot be trusted in the Situation Room and an unfolding scenario, then he's not fit to be president.
Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
Thank you very much. And as you know, Donald Trump continues to pretend that he wins golf championships at his clubs. Then he posts them, like, every other week. He's claiming he's winning a tournament, and then he posts 20, 25 men's senior championship. We did it. We did it. And then disgustingly, you know, really disgustingly, Donald Trump said how he wants to build all of these. He did AI videos of this, how he wants to build all of these golf courses in Gaza. So he wants to use the genocide and then build golf course golf courses. Remember we did that AI video of him and Netanyahu with their shirt off and they were, like, dancing with, like. It was a very weird video, right? Where, like, they were dancing with, like, belly dancers and, like, golfing and drinking alcohol and the belly dancers had beards and boobs. It was like, very strange. Remember that video I'm talking about? I'm not making this up. Some weird stuff. And then you had Jesse Waters say the following. Here, play this clip. And Jimmy with his teleprompter. The Trump Board of Peace already doing more than the U.N. we're building golf clubs in Gaza. The only thing they'll be fighting over
Fox News / Bret Baier
now is tea times.
Midas Touch Host / Rick Riley (Sports Commentator)
A few other things about Donald Trump and golf courses in addition to the fact that he cheats all the time. He buried his first wife at the Bedminster golf Course. So he can get, apparently he can get tax benefits by saying that his golf course is a cemetery. That's what a lot of people were saying. But he buried her and then the Daily Mail got the photos and like all of the shrubs and grass was growing over it. That's like where the first wife was buried. Wow. So, so ghoulish that the kids would just let that happen. Oh. And then, as we know, Donald Trump's covering up his cognitive and physical decline. He really can't cover it up because it's in our faces. But Donald Trump had his doctor, Sean Barbarella say that Donald Trump's health is demonstrated by the fact that he wins all these golf tournaments. And that shows how healthy he is. He wins all these golf tournaments. I kid you not. Donald Trump's medical note from last year, by the way. I don't think he's had it physical in 2026. They just think that we're supposed to forget that he has. Don't report on those pesky annual physicals. Right. Donald Trump just apparently hiding the annual physical in my opinion, or not telling us about it. But on the April 2025 one, it's like his health is demonstrated by, quote, frequent victories in golf events. Some weirdo stuff. Weird, weird stuff, man. But Trump humiliated at his golf course.

Episode Title: Trump Loses it as his Golf Event is Worst in PGA History!!!
Host: MeidasTouch Network (Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas)
Air Date: May 2, 2026
In this episode, the MeidasTouch brothers deliver a scathing, humorous, and detailed breakdown of Donald Trump's disastrous week as his much-hyped PGA tournament at Doral, Miami, was declared "the worst attended PGA Tour stop" in years—possibly ever. Using their staple mix of fact-driven news, satire, and brotherly banter, the hosts dissect how Trump’s relationship with the LIV Golf tour, the Saudi government, and his habitual self-aggrandizement culminated in public humiliation and ridicule. The episode also connects these events to broader themes of accountability, Trump’s cognitive decline, and the role of media and public perception in shaping the political narrative.
This episode of MeidasTouch delivers a ruthless takedown of Trump’s failed Doral golf event and uses it as a springboard to illustrate his broader failures in both golf and politics. The brothers mix credible reporting, caustic wit, and amplified outrage at Trump’s deflections and fabricated bravado. From “zero fans” at a flagship tournament, to the LIV Golf league’s collapse, to Trump’s bizarre attempts at saving face—including claiming health based on imaginary golf victories—every segment reinforces the central thesis: Trump’s signature self-promotion is now synonymous with public failure. Key moments and memorable quotes are bookended with expert commentary and pointed humor, making the episode both informative and highly entertaining for listeners.
