Legendary musician revealed what Donald Trump is really like to play golf with amid 'cheating' allegations
A legendary rock star once revealed what Donald Trump is like to play golf with amid allegations the US President 'cheats' at the sport.
President Trump has recently embarked upon his second term of office in the White House after beating Kamala Harris in the Presidential Election held towards the end of 2024.
Though his time in the Oval Office is only a matter of months into its second spell, President Trump has already embarked upon some eyebrow-raising policies.
He has overseen tens of thousands of federal workers being laid off in a bid to save money and some 1,500 people convicted of offences in a 2021 attack on the Capitol Building being pardoned.

President Trump has also temporarily cut off US military aid and intelligence support to Ukraine in its war against Vladimir Putin's Russia, and put in place reciprocal tariffs on exports coming into the US, which has inflated the price of goods and services from the UK, EU, and the rest of the world with varying extra taxation levels now applied.
Away from politics, the 78-year-old is known to be a golf fanatic and owns a total of 16 courses - including 12 in the United States.
However, he has come under fire in the past when it comes to golf and faced allegations that he 'cheats' while on the golf course.
Actor Samuel. L. Jackson and retired boxer Oscar De La Hoya have previously suggested that President Trump bends the rules on the sport.
Journalist Mark Mulvoy has also recalled in the Washington Post an incident from the 1990s where he played golf with President Trump in New York City and he suggested the US President had moved the ball 10 feet away from the pin behind his back during a game.
And rock legend Alice Cooper has also commented on President Trump's golfing habits.
While he did not directly categorically say that President Trump cheats at the sport, he gave an indication that potentially might be the case when speaking back in 2012 to Q magazine.
He said: "The worst celebrity golf cheat? I wish I could tell you that. It would be a shocker.
"I played with Donald Trump one time. That’s all I’m going to say."
In response, President Trump denied that he had ever played golf with the Poison singer, as well as any suggestion that he cheats at the sport.
He said: "I’ve never played with Alice Cooper.
"That’s a terrible thing to say (cheating) about people, especially me."
