Trump sparked controversy by recounting a detailed, raunchy anecdote about Arnold Palmer at a 2024 campaign rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. He described Palmer as “all man” and went on to joke about what Palmer looked like in the shower, saying that other players had remarked on it. The remarks drew criticism from Palmer’s family and many observers, who called the comments disrespectful and inappropriate for honoring a late golf great. Several outlets reported the incident and the ensuing reactions, including comments from Palmer’s daughter and various media organizations.
