5. Open To The Owner?

Of course. It's open to the owner 365.
That said, since the banks actually own the place, I wonder if the execs can play, too!

I could go walk the course if I wanted. But, no employees are working to give carts.
They run the bar & grill 364 days a year. In that little town, it's the only game in town.
But, if I owned the place, I wouldn't need an employee to open the cart barn. I'd have the keys & the alarm code!
So, I could go play today, yes; but since I don't own the joint, no cart.
Of course, it's 12 degrees right now, so it's a moot point!
Merry Christmas, UP!

And, even not in SOFL, many courses are open on Xmas. However, remember that quite a few non-Christians live here, so more things may be open then in some areas, such as around Richmond.

Everybody’s always given in to him. Until 80-some-million American voters finally said “NO!”

That’s what it took.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Never truer than right now.

The majority of them, if not every one, will be turned into grants and never repaid. In this way Trump actually is one of them but that does not reflect well on evangelicals.

it is no surprise that they will side with anyone who gives them some attention. Which he did. And like a little lost puppy, they will follow him anywhere because of it, even if that path leads to destruction.

What to call the mental disorder in which somebody is totally convinced that anything that helps them get whatever it is they want is the absolute "truth"? (Like "election fraud".)

Some form of psychopathy?

Terrorists are sometimes considered psychopathic, and comparisons may be drawn with traits such as antisocial violence, a selfish world view that precludes the welfare of others, a lack of remorse or guilt, and blame externalization.

Maybe Mary Trump would know.

Munchausen Syndrome (factitious disorder imposed on self) is characterized by faking illness or disease for sympathy and attention.

He just didn’t listen and kept harassing some women, (allegedly) think it’s called rape.

that trump never became a man. he's been emotionally 2 years old for 74 years. when i tweeted back at him i often reminded him that just because he had always gotten away with it didn't mean he always would. of course he didn't believe that. his ego is a black hole incapable of apprehending his own loss or any of his own failings.
