Donald Trump's caddy put man in military chokehold after hearing what he said about President during round of golf
US President Donald Trump employs a former Marine named A.J. as his caddy – and things once got out of hand when he put a man in a military chokehold during a round of golf.
Trump, 78, is a businessman and the US President but when his schedule allows it, he is often spotted playing golf and even recently played against Tiger Woods.
He takes the game very seriously, so much so that he hired a former Marine, who assists him by carrying his bag and offering advice when the 78-year-old plays at the Trump National Golf Club in Washington, Northern Virginia.
A.J. is so loyal to his employer that he will even fight on his behalf.

As reported by Politico, back in 2017 the caddy overheard a conversation which he took a dislike to during the Senior PGA Championship at Trump Washington.
Another caddy named Brian “Sully” Sullivan was supposedly speaking about Trump in a disrespectful manner - before A.J. stepped in, that is.
“He was running his mouth, sir,” said A.J. when reflecting on the incident.
“Yellin’ about Mr. Trump. He was sayin’ to somebody, ‘Don’t tell me how I have to feel about him! I hate that motherf-----!’”
However, things took a turn when A.J. came up from behind and put Sullivan in a military chokehold before yelling: “Now, you listen to me, f-----! You’re not gonna come to Mr. Trump’s course and eat Mr. Trump’s food and then use the word ‘hate’ about my president. I won’t have it, you got me?”
And as you may have expected, Sullivan’s side of the story was slightly different.
“It’s possible I was hungover,” said Sullivan when admitting his memory of the incident was unclear.
“I don’t like D.C. anyway and I sure as hell didn’t want to be on a Trump course. Some guys started talking about Trump. I mentioned that I can’t stand the son of a b----. I said he was the biggest jerk in the world. A.J. got all worked up and said, ‘That man pays my rent. He puts food on my table!’ I said if he has to take money from that horse’s ass, then he ought to find a different loop. He kind of just grumbled off. Of course, as luck would have it, he and I got paired for the first two days. We buried the hatchet.”
