BOGEY! Biden responds to Trump’s proposal for another debate next week and a round of golf with four challenges of his own

Joe Biden responded to Donald Trump’s challenge to debate again and play a game of golf worth $1 million.

Trump gave his election rival an ultimatum at a rally in Doral, Florida, on Tuesday night: he proposed an event that he said would be bigger than the Ryder Cup or the Masters.

“I also officially challenge Crooked Joe to an 18-hole golf tournament here. On Doral’s Blue Monster, one of the finest tournament golf courses in the world,” Trump said. “It will be one of the most watched sporting events in history.”

Biden responded to Trump’s letter through a spokesperson shortly thereafter.

He refused to debate him, perhaps because of his disastrous performance last time, but instead issued a number of challenges of his own.

“We challenged Donald Trump to create jobs, but he lost 3 million,” the statement said.

“We challenged Donald Trump to take on Putin, but he bowed to him.”

“We would challenge Donald Trump to follow the law, but he is breaking the law.”

“We challenge Donald Trump not to destroy our country, but that is exactly what his Project 2025 aims to do.”

The statement ended: “Joe Biden has no time for Donald Trump’s antics — he’s busy leading America and defending the free world.”

The former president initially said he wanted to debate Biden again — “next week” — which would coincide with the Republican National Convention. Biden was already scheduled to debate Trump a second time, but on Sept. 10.

Trump then challenged Biden to a contest about his favorite sport, after the two had an argument over it during the first debate.

“I’ll even give Joe Biden 10 strokes, 10 strokes, that’s a lot. That means 20 strokes in case you don’t play golf,” he continued.

Former President Donald Trump also challenged President Joe Biden to another debate — and asked for one next week — and a round of golf, saying he would donate $1 million to the president’s chosen charity

“And if he wins, I’ll give the charity of his choice — any charity he wants — $10 million,” the ex-president added. “And I bet he won’t take it.”

Both men are avid golfers, and Trump used his hobby to answer questions about how he would fare at the end of his second presidential term, when he would be 82 years old.

“I just won two club championships – not even seniors, but two regular club championships,” he boasted.

“To do that, you have to be pretty smart, and you have to be able to hit the ball far. And I do it. He doesn’t. He can’t hit the ball 50 yards.”

Biden responded by saying he would like to take on Trump in a “driving contest.”

“When I was vice president, I got my handicap down to a six,” he said, before taking a jab at Trump. Trump is often photographed on his own golf courses in a golf cart, with a caddie always nearby.

“And by the way, I’ve told you before that I’d love to play golf if you carried your own bag. Do you think you could do it?”

Trump laughed at Biden’s disability.

“That’s the biggest lie of all: that he has a six handicap,” he said.

As if all that wasn’t childish enough, when Trump added, “Let’s not act like children,” Biden responded with, “You’re a child.”

Trump’s love of golf is well known, often playing during his winter weekends at Mar-a-Lago in Florida or in the summer at his course in Bedminster in New Jersey.

Among his most vibrant appearances at the White House were visits from golf legend Tiger Woods, and in 2018 he played on his West Palm Beach course with legend Jack Nicklaus.

Biden plays less often, but is a member of Fieldstone Golf Club, near his home in Delaware.
