Arnold Palmer's Daughter Critiques Trump's Anecdote

During a Saturday campaign rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump shared a story about the late golf legend Arnold Palmer that has generated a mix of reactions due to its unusual details. Trump recounted an anecdote concerning Palmer's appearance in the showers. "When he took the showers with other pros, they came out of there. They said, 'Oh my God. That's unbelievable,'" Trump said with a laugh. "I had to say. We have women that are highly sophisticated here, but they used to look at Arnold as a man."

Arnold Palmer's daughter, Peg Palmer Wears, described it as "a poor choice of approaches" but remained unfazed by the comments. "I think it was a poor choice of approaches to remembering my father, but what are you going to do?" Wears stated her father and Trump shared a passion for golf but had limited personal interactions. Reflecting on her father, who passed away in 2016, she mentioned how he believed in the Republican Party's values and remained committed to the country's ideals despite occasional disagreements. Although Wears did not disclose her voting preference for the upcoming election, she emphasized the importance of making informed decisions, noting her "unaffiliated" status as a voter residing in North Carolina.
