President Trump spent the weekend on April 4, 2024 at Mar-a-Lago Home and Trump International Golf Club.
- Senegale President Basilou Diomai Fey called Trump a “risqué” golfer with “concentration and accuracy” skills.
- The tribute came when Trump met five African leaders at the White House to discuss the development of rare minerals and fossil fuels.
WASHINGTON – One of five African leaders seeking to engage in trade talks at the White House, known as President Donald Trump and “risqué” golfers, have proposed that they could invest in their next course in Senegal.
The official talk fell into the weeds of the potential development of rare minerals and fossil fuels in Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mauritania and Senegal. Trump had previously signed a rare earth contract with Ukraine in exchange for continued support in the war with Russia.
However, Senegale President Basilou Diomai Fey has been flattering in both diplomacy and sports. “I know you’re a tremendous golfer,” Fay told the US president, who owns some of the world’s most iconic courses. “Golf requires concentration, accuracy and the qualities that make you a great leader.”
Faye suggested that the new course that boosts tourism in his country would be a flight time of just six hours from New York, Miami or Europe.
“So we can probably invest in a Senegal golf course,” Fey added. “It will be an opportunity for you to show off your skills on the golf course.”
Trump replied that it was “good.”
“How to show off my skills,” Trump said. “It’s a long trip to show off my skills, but that’s really good.”
The exchange followed the pattern of foreign leaders who compelled Trump.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented Trump with a copy of the letter he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize when he met on July 7th.
Ireland’s Prime Minister Michael Martin praised President Trump as the first president to know that he was known to have invested in Ireland through the Trump International Golf Link & Hotel in Doonbeg in March.
The British Prime Minister, Kiel’s starmer, pocketed the golf course and royalty when he met up with Trump in February. Trump is holding two golf courses in Scotland, and local governments are preparing a possible visit later this month.
Starmer invited Trump to an unprecedented invitation for his second state visit with King Charles.
“This is really special,” Starmer said. “This is unprecedented.”
