Donald Trump is being slammed on social media after he talked about the late professional golfer Arnold Palmer’s genitalia during a campaign rally.
During the rally, which took place on Sunday in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Trump spent ten minutes rambling about Palmer.
“Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that with all due respect to women, and I love women,” he said at one point during his rambling speech. “But this guy—this guy—this is a guy that was all man.”
“This man was strong and tough, and I refused to say it but when he took the showers with other pros, they came out of there, they said, ‘Oh my God. That’s unbelievable,'” he added.

This recollection caused the audience at the rally to begin laughing.
“I had to say it,” Trump stated. “We have women that are highly sophisticated here, but they used to look at Arnold as a man. But he was really something special. Arnold was something special.”
Trump was condemned by many X users for making these comments about Palmer, with some questioning his mental health.
The X user @Tyrunner0097 wrote that “anyone who even remotely believes he’s sound of mind is mentally disturbed themselves.”
“His skull is full of mashed potatoes and Adderall at this point,” the X user stated.
“He is really losing his mind,” the user @RobertM18204059 claimed. “What will it be like 4 years from now?”
Palmer’s daughter, Peggy Palmer, told The Independent that she thought Trump’s comments about her father were “an unfortunate way to remember my dad.”
“My father was very modest,” Peggy said. “We’ve lost our sense of outrage in this country over just about everything, and I’m not sure that’s OK … There are other things about my dad that would be better to focus on.”
